Alongside the announcement of the update to the Spectral, Canyons' Neuron gets the same treatment. It gets new colours and new specs with Canyon a limited-edition bike added to the range.

With the range of updates gracing the Neuron, there's also a limited-edition model with only 100 units up for grabs worldwide. Making the CF Ltd special is Canyon's collaboration with DT Swiss. The CF Ltd gets a DT Swiss' 535 series 140mm fork with a matching shock along with the brand's super light XMC1200 carbon wheels. SRAM and Race Face finish of the rest of the bike.

Along with the CF Ltd, the rest of the range gets new colours and up to date componentry.

The brand has given the CF 8 a 140mm RockShox Pike fork and Deluxe Select+ RockShox shock. The bike also gets a SRAM Gx Eagle drivetrain,  SRAMs G2 brakes, DT Swiss wheels, and a Schwalbe Nobby Nic and Hans Dampf, for example.

For 2021, aluminum models get 130mm of travel at both ends of the bike and all unisex models get one-by drivetrains with bigger 32t chainrings, although the women's bikes keep their 30t rings. There's also Schwalbe tyres across the range.

A handful of the bikes in the range get new components too. The Neuron AL 7 models (including WMN models) now come with Shimano XT drivetrains and SLX brakes.

The kid's Young Hero frame gets a new, bigger, XS size to get more kids riding.

The 2021 Neuron range is available now with prices starting from £1,500 for the Young Hero, then going up to £5,500 for the flagship Neuron CF SLX 9.

That limited edition Neuron CF Ltd will set you back £4,950 but you'll have to be quick to get one of the 100 available worldwide.
