Canyon has launched a new addition to its electric line up: the Strive:ON. This ditches the Shapeshifter of the non-electric version, and sets its eye firmly on E-Enduro racing. Developed with input from Fabien Barel and the race team, it's a bike that's as much about the ups as it is the downs. Hannah was out at the launch and brings us this first ride review.

The Strive:ON is tested to Category 4E standards - a notch lower than the Rampage ready Torque:ON. Canyon says that makes the Strive:ON suitable for anything short of downhill world cup courses, big bike park hits, and freeride cliffs. But tough enduro stages are what it's all about. I can see some riders opting for the Torque:ON because they want that big hit confidence and strength. For how I ride, I think the agility of the Strive:ON on the ups as well as the downs is more valuable.
