Endurace CF 8 Di2

On the road, small changes in drag and tire resistance add up, and this score captures that effect. When you push the pace, it's one of the more speed-focused builds in its group. The biggest contributors are a fairly average weight, a lighter-feeling mass profile that helps on accelerations and tempo climbs, all-round road tires that balance speed and comfort, and a solid drivetrain that supports efficient...

Uphill performance score: 7.5/10. Within Road bikes, this comes out above average. It has a middle-of-the-road low gear for climbing. That lowest gear comes out around 27.0 gear inches. On the ‘easier low gear’ scale, it sits around ~58% versus similar bikes. Gear inches is basically “how easy is the easiest gear”. Lower numbers help you keep your legs spinning on steep bits. With roughly 8.4 kg to move uphill, you’ll feel it more as climbs get longer. It won’t be the absolute best climber, but it won’t hold you back on most climbs either. Build kits can differ by size and spec level, and not every detail is published by every brand, so use this as a practical guideline.

Seen as an endurance option, that 5.9/10 aero rating suggests that with shallow rims (~22mm), it’s built to be well-rounded in the wind and it doesn’t force a specialist aero posture. The short version is: it’s a balanced middle ground: some streamlining, but not an extreme aero setup. The endurance category also hints at the intent behind the design. The fit looks fairly neutral, so aerodynamics depends more on the overall design and components than on an extreme position. The wheels are on the shallower side (around 22mm), so frame shapes and position likely matter more than wheel depth here. That wheel depth is more all-round than purely aero-focused. Tyres around 30mm are a practical middle ground, with a small aero trade-off compared with narrower race tyres. In practice, it’s a balanced setup: decent in the wind without demanding big compromises elsewhere.

Balanced fit - a versatile position for long rides and faster efforts. This is mainly because there's about 84 mm of drop to the bars (large), with roughly 546 mm of forward stretch to the bar (long). Plan for roughly 36 degrees of lean.

What affects adjustability on this bike: Standard cockpit parts make it simpler to fine-tune your position over time, Cable routing is on the simpler side, which helps adjustability. Plus, More setback choices usually mean a wider fit window. Overall, it falls into Adjustable. In practice, it is about how easy fit changes are with normal parts and service work.

Ride comfort is 4.6/10 — on a real ride it feels balanced. That’s why it’s labeled Firm. It’s running about 31 mm tires on 700c wheels, and there’s a bit of cushion, but it still rides fairly direct on rough pavement on chipseal and broken pavement. The posture is neutral (posture 5/10, torso ~36°), which keeps things neutral and easy to live with.

This looks like strong value, even if it’s not the absolute cheapest listing. The value score is 1–10. Higher means better value for money; lower means the price is high for what you get. Uses MSRP as a baseline; real-world prices can be lower (discounts can change the value). On the spec estimate, the price is close to what we’d expect for a comparable build. In its peer group, it tends to be better-priced than many, beating about 69% of listings. Quick reference: €3.989 listed versus about €4.045 for a comparable build. Put simply: it’s competitively priced for what you get.

This is a road bike that stays comfortable when the pavement gets rough. Tires around 32 mm add comfort and grip when the road surface breaks up. Overall, the setup matches this surface range well.
