Canyon Endurace in size medium owners.

roubaixtom

Hi,
Going to order an Endurace CF 8.0. I'm 5ft 9 with 82ish cm inseam. Has anyone got an Endurace size small or medium who is a simlar hight to me?
Only thing I'm worried about is if I will have enough seatpost showing on the medium and til much saddle/bar drop on the small.

Thanks

Don't they have massive headtubes anyway, so I can't see saddle to bar drop being a big problem.

Because of the sloping geometry there should be plenty of seatpost showing, maybe too much on the small frame.

The head tube on the small is 143 and 159 on the medium. Seat post is 51cm on small and 54.5 on medium.

So potentially 3.5 less cm on the seatpost showing, but the head angle and increase of headtube size may reduce reach slightly.

Do you have the stack and reach figures of your existing frame?

roubaixtom

Reach Is 380mm and stack is 563mm.

Still not decided on size. Any ideas?

thanks

I think you'll feel too cramped on the small unless you go with a longer stem, have you emailed Canyon UK as they have improved their comms recently.

roubaixtom

Yeah I think the medium is the right one to go for. I have emailed them saying I'm 5ft9 with 82cm inseam and they said medium. Have you got an endurance?

Hi

I dont own a Endurance but i do have a SLX and Aeroad and mine are both size small and are perfect size and i am 5ft 10.
Have you used there measuring system?.

roubaixtom

Yes I have and it came out with a small

I also have a CF SLX. Inseam was 82.5 which you can't enter in their sizing system. 82cm recommended small and 83 a medium - so probably in a similar predicament to you. I went for a small as it's easier to make a small bike bigger, than a big bike smaller. It fits perfectly.

Incidentally a friend ordered a large and it was too big. Canyon arranged a courier to pick it up and delivered a medium a few days later. So, not much to worry yourself about
