I’m another Endurace fan - mine is 2017 vintage (rim brakes, just before they changed over 100%)
The split seat post is excellent. If I bought a new non-Canyon frame, I’d look to buy one.

Do you recommend the TCR? It’s on my shortlist for when I eventually get a new bike (unlikely to be for another couple of years unless I come into unexpected cash).
Some lovely bikes you are looking at!
I sort of thought that, but treated myself anyway during my lockdown purchase. Di2 is actually great in road bikes. You’re changing gears way more than on a TT, and more front shifts as I ride hillier routes, and the crisp shifting that nevers needs indexing is great.
And the hidden buttons on the hoods are really great. I find it weird having to press a button on my Garmin now!
It’s a great bike. They’ve made them for ages and are popular for a reason. I don’t need such a race oriented bike for the rides I’d do so would now get a Defy.
Just fancy a change from Giant as you see a lot of them where I live because they’ve got a shop near me.
You’re selling this one quite well. Get it with the standard Mavic Allroad with 40mm tyres on and a second set of carbon hoops with road 28mm on it. Now to decide on groupset, Ultegra, GRX 1x and/or Di2. All budget dependent of course.
He got mechanical Ultegra as it’s “cheaper” to replace and more readily available S/H on your favourite auction sites and online marketplaces.
With riding through winter and off road it needs replacing more.
How often are people trashing derailleurs for this to be a serious consideration? I’ve got GRX on my Diverge and find it excellent. 5000km done on it.
That’s about three, maybe four, months of riding for this chap
Fair enough, in which case I’ll bow out.
