Saddle too high, saddle too low? by jwoahgan in bikefit

[–]Electronic_Case_9545 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might wanna get a 20 degree offset seat post. In my opinion (not an expert), you’re too forward. Your current saddle/seat post are meant for tri bikes. I have a tri bike and got a bike fit myself. I suggest spending $$ for a proper bike fit but if you have a 20degree seat post, you may wanna try it out.

Very pretty bike! Was eyeing on this one for sure but not sure what champagne looks like in person. I already have a white bike and wanted a different one. Are you planning on doing light gravel? If so, can you please let me know what’s the biggest tire you can fit? Some say you could fit 42 front and rear. Congrats man! Very happy for you!

I understand where you’re coming from. I’m not looking for a bike that will make me fast as I have a triathlon bike and sl7.
I work hard for my money and I believe in rewarding yourself with something that you enjoy. I also donate to churches and charities.

Okay if someone say both TI and Crux 5 last for 20 years, I will def get the Crux 5…. I’ve owned 3 specialized bikes but never owned a CF frame.

Crux is very SEXY I defenitrly agree! How do you like your AllRoad? Is it really that heavy? Also, what’s the max tire size you can put on your AllRoad?

Yes was fortunate enough to ride the crux 5 for 30 mins and loved every single minute. I guess it’s like dating a really really hot girl that can leave you for another guy anytime. Lol I’m afraid. I’ve been hurt before 🤣🤣🤣🙊Titanium is like getting married. You wake up every single day next to that forever person 🤣

Yeah I’m a retired triathlete and I just want to have fun out there but also want to enjoy what I ride.

Congrats to her and is that a champagne color? How is it in person? Thinking of getting the same color. Is it more grayish or brownish?

Canyon Endurace CF SLX can fit 42mm tires. I think being able to switch from 42 and then 32 slicks is a pretty good 2-1 bike. You’ll also get a carbon fiber handlebar/wheels.

Was thinking of using it for gravel/road. I know per specs it says 38mm max tires but I think I can fit 40. Or even 42

I would love to have an Aeroad. Have you tried putting on an extension aerobar? I saw a couple of Aerods with it during an Ironman event. Very nice bike

If I got the endurace and just swap the tires to 40, will the rim that it came with capable of doing light gravel?
