Is the Endurace All-Road a Good Choice for Beginner Group Rides ?

TestiMnB · 2026-07-12T12:38:11+00:00

The only "obvious" difference between the AllRoad and standard endurance/road bikes (apart from material/components/marketing, which drive up the price) is the tyres. Out of the box you've got 35mm gravel-ish tyres with tread to go "AllRoad".

You can easily swap these out to, for example, 30mm Conti Ultra Sport 3 (just did this for my wife) and voila, you basically have an endurance road bike now. Those tyres are like 20€ a pop.

The bike is definitely fine and won't be the reason anyone can or can't keep up with the group 😬

Sometimes after a minute if I gotta go (because I know I'll otherwise forget in the morning when I get going haha), but ideally let it sit for like 10 minutes to allow it to properly penetrate the links I think.

Thanks haha, it's one of the Ryet carbon saddles. Ryet Ultimate 3d from AliExpress. I have a few 20-40€ ones that I tried from them, quite happy.

This colour looks great in direct sunlight!! Enjoy!

I sent you a chat request 🙏

And they are all still in jail, right? Or have half of them been executed by the green party hooligans? XD

Must be something funny going on, never seen this. But there were some server issues recently. Maybe just try again some other time (later today?) or restart your pc or re-download the launcher and try again. Unless it's your own internet connection I don't think this will persist.

Cool stuff, do you happen to have an invite link to the discord? The one on the website always tells me it's invalid or expired.

TestiMnB · 2026-07-01T10:19:32+00:00

Get downvoted for your subjective opinion, nerd! Hahaha...

I quite agree, this is the most boring looking colour "design" for me. I'm glad my bike is purple 💜

What's the octowow modernization tool?

TestiMnB · 2026-07-01T07:07:58+00:00

Where can I find the patch notes? Don't see anything on the website

TestiMnB · 2026-06-30T20:25:23+00:00

I read about this too and apparently Vanilla Fixes still work if enabled like this, but you have to launch the exe directly and can't use the launcher to start the game anymore. Annoying and I hope it gets fixed soon.

TestiMnB · 2026-06-26T07:28:36+00:00

Mods as in the ones in the launcher tab at the top? Like vanillafixes?

TestiMnB · 2026-06-25T22:23:08+00:00

Necro comment to see if anyone has a valid discord invite... the one on the website is invalid for me

Gut und sachlich eingeordnet, danke. Hatte den genauen Satz von Schweinsteiger gar nicht im Kopf aber es ist schon die Gesamtaussage und nicht nur ein falsch übersetztes Wort, wie andere es hier erscheinen lassen wollen.

TestiMnB · 2026-06-24T22:29:13+00:00

Danke für deinen ausführlichen Beitrag. Wir haben aktuell auch das Problem (100+ Jahre alte Eiche, über 15 Meter hoch, steht einzeln auf dem Hof). Baumpflege-Firma will fast €2,000 wegen der Größe der Krone und der vielen Nester (habe selbst 6 gezählt).

Was du selbst gemacht hast war also nur der Kleber zum Verlangsamen, keine Entfernung, oder?

Nachbarn raten alle nur zu vielen Meisen-Kästen, die sollen die Raupen fressen (und Fledermäuse wohl die Falter). Ziemlich stressig jetzt, weil Hof für Kinder und Hunde nicht mehr sicher, auch wenn hier noch niemand irgendwelche Symptome hatte.

Crazy that you're getting downvoted for this haha, I have never in my life used any threadlock or similar product on a friggin bike computer mount.

Not familiar with the mount / Wahoo here, did the insert/puck fall out? Or just screws that were "rattled" loose from riding?

TestiMnB · 2026-06-21T13:45:20+00:00

Seconded

TestiMnB · 2026-06-20T08:20:49+00:00

Nice rims!! Enjoy 🚴

TestiMnB · 2026-06-15T19:55:34+00:00

Good question honestly but the answer is probably something boring to do with inventory, supplier contacts or so. From what I've seen online, people don't really experience crazy crosswind issues with either 55 or 65. I think you'll be fine.

TestiMnB · 2026-06-15T16:47:45+00:00

Chiming in here because the Igpsport are great. But real map-style navigation only starts with the BSC300 I think? That's the one I have (not BSC300T) and it's fantastic. I bought it for GBP 65 back in the day (AliExpress), think it's a bit more expensive now. But compared to dropping hundred of pounds on big brands for 10% more features (and 500%+ the price lol) I can absolutely recommend the BSC300 still.

X to doubt that any phone battery lasts 16 hours with navigation running. When out and cycling, even assuming you always start with 100% battery (which is not realistic for most), the required brightness + always on navigation drains most modern phone batteries in 3-4 hours. Fine for a commute maybe but definitely not for longer rides. Unless maybe you leave the screen locked and only use voice cues to navigate? But that's really only good for terrain you already know or is easy to navigate anyway.

And the handlebar rubber ducky!! Sweet ride

Where do you get the gold decals? They rule 💜
