Interesting review. I got a Giant e-revolt earlier this year, primarily because of a health issue. I find it is brilliant, I can ride with my mates, who are happy to sit on my wheel into headwinds. I get a good zone 2 workout every time I ride, but can get higher levels by reducing the power or turning the assistance off. I have found my fitness has improved. I was using levels 2&3 most of the time, now mainly level 1. I ride when I wouldn't necessarily have gone out due to my health problem. I can now also ride my normal bike again as a result.
Your comment on the power button is a good one, on mine the left shifter operates the power up & down, which is brilliant. I rode several e-bikes & found having to use the button on the top tube very frustrating after a while.
The bike also rolls really well over the cutoff, inspite of it's weight. As for the range, on my last full charge I ran to empty and got 120miles with over 3000 ft of ascent, this was over 3 separate rides. I have some bigger, hillier rides planned to investigate this further.
I really enjoy your videos, thank you.
I have the same bike, I bought it last September & got a great deal on it. I have the Giant Revolt E Pro XR. I noticed Giant just dropped a 2024 model but its not as good a spec as the one in Rosewood. The newer one doesn't have full D-Fuse, they haven't used the D-Fuse system on the handlebars & they now use the EP6 which is alloy as opposed to the EP8 being magnesium, which makes the EP6 heavier. They also dropped GRX in favour of Ultegra. The newer model is not a pro spec & they priced it at £4499. They changed the colour to that horrid bright green.
@@SwazersC I have the 2024, the rear derailleur is xt di2, so gives me a much better range for me, 47 front, 51 rear, only the shifter are ultegra. I also prefer the green, looks great in the light. The bike rides really well.
This bike would suit me perfectly. Here in very hilly Slovakia some assistance on long steep hills would be great, allowing for a longer ride, and a more steady day out. The versatility of the bike is ideal too, you could ride from your doorstep into the hills and back home with the bike being pretty perfect for most surface types. The only issue is the price, which is out of my league unfortunately.
It seems like the specialized aluminum version may be a better option for most. Similar setup except the motor cuts out at a higher speed, is more powerful, is the same price as the lower end grizl. It's certainly the direction I'm leaning towards. Great review!
7k carbon gravel ebike with carbon wheels for commuting?! My dentist is going to love this bike.
I have this bike, I love it, ride it mainly with the motor off but if i come across a big hill or head wind, just gives me that bit of assistance to keep the average speed up. The motor is not intrusive and the weight and motor resistance aren’t noticeable penalties over the limiter or with the assistance off.
What sort of speed can you maintain on flat tarmac? I'm looking for a bike to commute. It's 14k each way, if I could do it under 40 mins it would be viable.
@@agentolshki4265 I have an FTP of about 205W, which is about 3W/Kg for me, with the standard tyres on this bike, which are Schwalbe G one Bite, without wind or incline i can probably hold about 28kph to 30kph on the flat for 30mins, which is above the limiter in the UK (and the EU) so i would get no assist from the bike, accelerating up to speed is significantly quicker. However, if it is windy it is easy to hold 25kph without any effort and so would take 34mins to cover the 14k without stopping. It’s the stopping and starting that will really impact your average speed, so if your commute has traffic lights, pedestrians, people with dogs, etc, this will impact your journey time more.
Thanks for the review, I agree having mode control on the bars would be nice to have. This bike checks a lot of boxes for me, have one on order. I was also comparing this on paper to the Specialized Creo. For those in the US market, note the storage and mudguards aren't yet available here.
Just interested how you'd say it compares with the Creo 2? Weighing up one or the other at the moment although there's no rush to decide due to stock levels
Did he just say it costs 7000 eur? 😅
Almost perfect do-it-all bike. If a bit more weight could be shaved off, and it had a removable battery, it would be great. Not a fan of Canyon’s colour schemes on the Grizls.
Hello, @David, How did you get the fenders with integrated rack for the CF 7 or CF9? They seem only for Grizl:ON CF Daily
I really want this bike but the battery doesn’t come out and my storage unit for bikes has a wide range of temperature depending on the times of year and this is really bad for the battery isn’t it?
There's no reason why a remote can't be added as it's Bluetooth on the smart system
Thanks, mate, very helpful, but I would like to see more up hills, as we all know about flat roads 😀 laters
I don't like the frame bag but aside from that, it's an attractive bike. I'm only sixty, so maybe something like that when I get older would be nice.
Im looking at an e bike for commuting, mostly a roads. What sort of speed can i maintain on the flat? Why does the motor cut out and are there versions that keep the power on? Also with the gearing, is the top gear up there with a racer for instance?
Here in Europe 15.5mph or 25kph is when the motor assist cuts off
If the main battery does the rear shifter, can you cycle it when it goes flat?
@davidarthur Do you know if the rack can be swapped out for a heavy duty rack so I can put a child seat on the back?
At that point i prefer buying a scooter with big rear box. Much more practical and comfier to ride
How Much?
The Giant Revolt E represents suprior value, IMO. It's massively cheaper to buy & the spec is still excellent. I know I bought one. I got mine brand new for £3k with a huge discount. I have GRX DI2 & D-Fuse technology. I get the Shimano EP8 with 85nM. The Giant is over 4k cheaper. The Canyon is ridiculously priced. I find the price an insult to the consumer.
Perfect for the Dutch countryside
The bosch sx is very restricted connectivity wise. no ant+ no connection to garmin. otherwise a very interesting bike.
A carbon frame is not overkill on an ebike. Sorry.
15mph cap is disappointing
It is just not worth $6k. Looks great for 2500.
wow your cycle lanes are so poorly marked and laid out!!! Ive heard England is rubbish for bike riding! great video as always though
Very cool
Keren mantap👍👍👍 bagus aya suka ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Nice bike
Price? You will break your bank!
Looks awful.. I’m all for e-bikes and getting people cycling etc but not this one 😢 great review.. Pete 🚴🏻👍
I dont get electric gravel bikes. The point of gravel bikes over MTB's is speed and weight, so the advantage of gravel bikes withers down to almost nothing when you put a battery on it and restrict its speed. Just get a hardtail e-bike with some bar ends for comfort.
E gravel bikes, can be used on the road, to keep up with ease on aggresive group rides. And can also keep up with mtbs through trails.
Not for me looks awful in that format and expensive
My nerves, so this is proper rubbish. This crap doesn't even come close to my multi year old Cannondale Topstone 0.
The cannondale slate is the real OG still not seen a bike worthy of selling mine for and it counting as an upgrade
Strange, my reaction is gone?? RUclips or channel censorship??
That is one ugly bike
A carbon frame and wheels…. For an eBike??
I hope Canyon are paying you well to sell this junk!
E-bikes sales are sky high and trend will continue until they are completely saturated. However, this bike missed the mark. All the e-bikes being sold are either mountain bikes or for transportation. These applications make sense. Nobody is buying a 5k e-gravel bike.
Sorry but i† looks terrible with this heavy stuff: battery/motor. Not for a gravelbike maybe my granny of 95 years old
Weird how I feel the same way but I think the Grail:On looks sick
Yes, but this is the perfect solution to level the playing field when weaker riders and stronger riders can go together at their own level of effort.
E bike suck
E-Bikes are not for cyclists. They are for bikers.
Rubbish!! Stop the gatekeeping.....It's not for you to decide......There's no difference between a cyclist/ biker.....
Typical roadie snobbish attitude.....
@@Andy_ATBespecially if you have an issue with your knees….I am happy to have an e bike
@@Andy_ATB There is a difference - one has a motor, the other has not. Noone is keeping you from buying a Motor-Bike, but don't call yourself a cyclist when you're riding one.
Sorry, but unless you’re disabled or elderly an e-bike is just dumb and lazy. I see most ridden by kids flying down trails at 30mph. Get some damn exercise.
What’s next? The chairs from Wall-E?
No, it's not - you're just an ignoramus......Not everyone wants to ride uphill; ever heard of Downhill? They get a lift up to the top.....
Dumbest take of the day
