Introducing the Canyon Endurace CFR, a high-performance all-road bike specifically engineered to tackle the world’s most grueling races like Paris-Roubaix. We dive into the engineering that makes this bike unique, from its Aeroad-inspired geometry and massive tire clearance to its enhanced stiffness and aerodynamic profile. Join us as we explore why this “genre-busting” machine might just be the most versatile pro-level bike on the market today.

Does the Canyon Endurace CFR represent the ultimate "one bike" solution for road and light gravel, or would you still prefer a dedicated aero bike and a separate gravel rig? Let us know what you think of the specs in the comments! 👇
I love road bike cycling. I also love motorcycle riding. I know the cost/prices of both WELL MADE “vehicles”. And I CANNOT WRAP MY MIND AROUND A BICYCLE..WITH NO MOTOR..TO COST MORRRRRRRE THAN A REALLY NICE MOTORCYCLE!!! I know..I know.. it’s all about mass production but again..NO MOTOR..I am the motor on a bicycle!!! There’s even a huge empty triangle on a bicycle where the motor would be to help me realize how much money is buying ABSOLUTELY NOTHING🤣🤣🤣🤣
I missed a bit prcing and weight data. I think low stack is not the future of do-it-alls. Except that tyre clearance 35mm is a step in the right direction.
Does it come with the wood stick kick stand?
The best thing is the shorter cranks included as default!
They should really have named this Aeroad CFR Roubaix or something. Its an Aeroad after all.
I think that Canyon have missed an opportunity here a bit. Many people want an aero bike with an endurance geometry. So instead of naming this one the Endurace CFR, they should simply make it Aeroad ALL-ROAD etc and release a new Endurace that is an Aero bike with endurance geometry 🤷♀
New bike video's on both GMBN and GCN today. Both with the look and feel of a review, whilst actually paid commercial content. Will you guys ever do independent bike testing (again)?
“We don’t do bike reviews”. You guys do, please stop saying you don’t.
I didn't buy an Aeroad (even though I wanted one) because the toe overlap would have been too much for my liking. While I love this concept, the meager (4mm top tube stretch on a L) differences will likely mean even worse overlap with 35's unfortunately.
A rough roads bike with a proprietary carbon aero seatpost and disc brake fork? That's a little too stiff for me, but at least they attempted to put a Domane wobble post on it. The answer to this problem is always going to be Reynolds 853 road bikes with a 27.2 seat post, rim brakes and and 32mm tires. You don't need 35s if the bike isn't made out of carbon. Carbon is better than steel at taking the vibration out of cycling, but it's always going to suck hitting bumps.
How many brand decals can we place on a frame?
Canyon: Yes..
MVDP didn't even race this bike at Tour of Flanders. this bike makes zero sense.
Canyon… getting sooo tired
I don't want to be a riding ad. They really overdid it here, especially at this price point.
Paris – Roubaix cobbles = roads in the uk… They could have just named it the Endurace CFR-UK
I bet that bike would look absolutely sick with some CX 33s 😎
Omg the price is crazy
Paris Roubaix week. Paris Roubaix bike. Not a single cobble in sight.
pure marketing slop
This is a better bike for Vandergod than it is for mortal riders. Why? Because most don't ride the cobbles and want an even stiffer and heavier Aeroad. You can put the more compliant seatpost on an Aeroad.
What the public really wants is more forgiving geometry this bike doesn't provide either.
If fact, this bike is the polar opposite of what the typical enthusiast rider wants.
Nice try Si. Good sales pitch but rings hollow.
god the massive and redundant livery is so ugly.
Would you prop up your mega $$ bike on a random stick in the forrest for a photoshoot?
Still a press fit bottom bracket. Even if I could justify buying a bike like that at that price, the bottom bracket is a hard pass for me.
Wye Valley looking lovely in the Sunshine 🏴
So wait it’s an Endurace without the endurance geometry??
Incredibly confusing product from Canyon – calling it Endurace and implying this has endurance geometry, while in reality this is just an Aeroad with an updated fork and slightly longer chainstays to allow slightly wider tyres.
The bike is "bonkers" as will be the price. 😞
so it's basically an ENVE Fray, but a bit heavier? How innovative…
An aero looking frame with a round seatpost and actual endurance geometry wouldve been great, but this seems like a swing and a miss
The line-up doesn’t make any sense imo. It’s basically an aeroad with more tire clearance. They could have named it ‚Aeroad Roubaix Edition‘. And then bring an Aero bike with a relaxed geometry for older people like Rose did with the Shave and the Shave FF.
If it's a sponsor's bike just stick to the facts don't try to sell us one.
WE ARE SHILLING SO HARD FOR CANYON ITS GROSS.. £8500 for basically a slower and heavier Aeroad.. this makes no sense.. and GCN doing the typical sellout tactics. That much money for them CRAP wheels.. MY GOD!
I know where you could have gotten a shadow stand.
it’s bit of a joke bike tbh because it’s named endurance. the reach is actually 3 mm more than the actual aeroad in my size. kind of disappointed tbh
DT Swiss are still building wheels with 6 year old design. Narrow wheels with narrow internals. Want to buy Canyon but I refuse cuz they all have shitty wheels
From 9,000 euros! Completely insane 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Looks sharp.
Ehh hhhemm…. @5:20 Stick?!?! Sorry GCN. No shadow stand = nice, not a super nice. Try again next week!
This is a bike I really like the idea of, but it only being available with top spec components and carbon just makes me think this is aimed at the wrong customers. I'd assume most people looking for a top tier aero bike would be looking for the most agressive racing option, the compromises here seem more fitting for a mid spec bike and it feels like there would be more customers too…
While all of you former racers are just now accepting names like Endurance or all road, the rest of us have been out here living our best lives on our Trek Domane’s with Gravel tires all of these years.
And yes the Trek Domane was originally created for racing the Paris-Roubaix. Yes, I know that you’ll hate this just because of Lance Armstrong,
It would also seem the pros have started thinking like us normal humans.
We just want one bike!
It should go up hill, down hill, straight and even be tough enough for a dirt road or a basic trail. You shouldn’t need to have a whole stable full of bikes, or the bank account that goes with it.
