Looking for an endurance bike (easier on my middle aged back) with DI2. I’ve got to the conclusion that at this price point, you can’t buy a bad bike. But still trying to figure out the pros and cons to make a decision. After looking at trek, specialized, cannondale, Cervelo, etc, I came down to 3 preferred options. 1st photo the Bianchi Infinito CV. 2nd photo is the Canyon Endurace CF SLX 7 Di2. And 3rd is the BMC Roadmachine TWO. LMK your thoughts.

At $5k, personally I’d avoid the Canyon due to their history of bad proprietary part availability and reputation for bad customer service.
I’ve always had a soft spot for the other two brands, so maybe try to ride them both?
From that pictures id choose the bianchi.
Ultegra di2, carbon wheels and it looks fantastic. If you are a fan of it, I’d take that.
The BMC should be way cheaper, 105di2 and no deep wheels – seems to be not the best deal.
Do not buy Canyon unless you live in a 100 mi circle around the hq. I wouldn’t consider this as a premium brand. Remember the Canyo paint shop where an N was missing on the frame. It was on Reddit and hilarious.
You should try Pinarello X5.
