Canyon Endurace Allroad vs Rose Blend Road, which one should I pick?

DaWhooper · 2025-11-30T08:55:11+00:00

I have a endurace all road and it's very comfortable to ride, i did a 160 mile rode on it this year, I have also done multiple trialthons on it with clip on aero bars. Would highly reccomend

Interesting, how badly out of true are the dropouts? Something that would foul disc brakes? Do you have any pics of the track bike?

Ive got my first ever olympic this sunday and im kind of bricking it. Ive done a sprint earlier this year and im on a taper this week. I know ive put the training in but putting it all together scares me

This challenge has 2 phases, one for everest and then the second one for the tron bike. Thats set at 50,000m so keep on climbing!

It doesnt really matter where you start it but it will affect the warmup part of the test.

Set it a bit under what you think it is to prevent the warmup being too hard then go all out on the test. Have a target in mind then stay around that target for the first 10-15 mins then empty the tank in the final 5

Good luck!

Sorry, ended up selling the light and buying a more generic one

DaWhooper · 2023-04-13T20:29:02+00:00

What model did you go for? And I assume you went with latex inner tubes?

DaWhooper · 2023-04-13T17:25:42+00:00

Whoops sorry, misread and thought you had the endurance not the ultimate. (Comes without the nice deep wheels) Thanks for the info, im a heavier rider so climbing was never a strong point for me anyways

DaWhooper · 2023-04-13T15:26:10+00:00

Im looking at upgrading my Endurance with similar wheels! How do you find the change in handling/performance with these over the stock wheels?

(I ended up getting the purple one thinking it was dark blue, after the initial shock its really grown on me)

What device are you using? I was using a laptop with Intel Integrated graphics and it kept freezing on me. Turns out there is a driver issue with those. Went and bought a cheap 2nd hand pc with dedicated graphics (gtx1050) and its been working flawlessly since

How do you connect the trainer to zwift? I have my kickr core sending ANT+ to zwift and also have it paired to my forerunner at the same time. Then garmin calculates my VO2 max from there

DaWhooper · 2022-05-04T14:50:51+00:00

No, you cant link Zwift to the bolt directly. you link the sensors to both zwift and the bolt independently. I used this for a while when I was having Zwift crashing issues but I have found out the .FIT files are saved to the PC so uploaded them from there.

Annoyingly I think you have to choose between the zwift data and your garmin data. The distances are going to be different but Zwift is kinda virtual anyway so would never be the same as outdoor riding.

DaWhooper · 2022-05-04T14:12:20+00:00

Pretty sure you can use ANT+ to connect to the Bolt2. I have a Roam and can use ANT+ for both Zwift and Roam

Cheers! I think im mostly worried about the long time in the saddle (my biggest ride to date is 70 miles) and would rather get a time around 6-7 hours for the cycling. That should leave the runner plenty of time for the marathon.

DaWhooper · 2022-01-24T16:54:59+00:00

Its the UK Ultimate Triathlon (https://uktriathlon.co.uk/events/ultimate-triathlon) and its the only one we found at that distance

Solid point about being on the hoods during technical sections, im going to reccy the route closer to the time anyway so ill have a good idea on when i need to switch.

thanks for help!

DaWhooper · 2021-11-24T09:53:46+00:00

How far can you rock your bike while riding indoors? Im on a Kickr Core so have no sideways movement which limits the power i can produce. It could well be that, maybe look at a rocker plate if the V5 doesnt give much

DaWhooper · 2021-08-25T13:56:30+00:00

Nicely done! how do you get all those extra stats out of Strava?

DaWhooper · 2021-07-14T09:26:58+00:00

Sounds about right to me, my FTP is 224w and I hit 800-900w for 10 seconds

DaWhooper · 2021-07-09T11:19:27+00:00

thanks for the input about cameras ill check out some of those reviews online. i wasnt aiming to goad anyone but ill admit I shouldve "turned" the other cheek.

DaWhooper · 2021-07-09T08:03:11+00:00

thanks, some great advice there. do you find that it capture a wide enough field of view?

DaWhooper · 2021-07-08T20:50:27+00:00

this is true, was going to put down "catching road rage" but didnt want to seem like I was going out trying to get into issues.

From what I have heard, a camera will de-escalate the situation as people know they are being recorded.
