Hello all,
I’ve recently been sucked down the cycling rabbit hole, and have became pretty serious about investing in a nice entry level road bike. I have experience riding mountain bikes but can’t get out on trails enough to do it consistently.
I’ve been doing lots of research and I’m thinking that I might buy the Canyon Endurace 6 when they restock it in my size.

Anyone have experience on this bike? How does it ride? Is the geometry of the bike fairly relaxed? Is the Shimano Tiagra going to be a reliable group set?
I’m not looking to spend anything more than $1,500. I’m open to suggestions of any other good entry level bikes.
Please give me your thoughts, thank you!

For the price it offers quite nice components. But as canyon is a direct to customer seller, you don’t have a bike shop to come back to, which can be nice if you don’t know much about bike servicing.
Tiagra is a fine group, and the only difference in an 11-34 cassette for ten speed or eleven is a 24 tooth cog, vs a choice between 23 and 25. And the hydraulic disc calipers are the equal to 105.
