I look at the largest size every time and I just dont see anything that is terrible compared to the old bike.
Stack is about 10mm taller.
Reach is the same.
Wheelbase is the same.
Chainstay is the same.
BB drop is the same.
HTA is about the same.
STA is slightly steeper.
If you looked at the old Endurace and thought 'I could race that', then why is this new one anything different?
I am guessing geometry in some of the smaller sizes changed dramatically because this thread is full of some salty takes.
I confess to being somewhat mystified, since an article I read said that stack had increased by ~27mm and reach reduced by ~15mm. But when I compare the geometry tables for the CF7 (current model) vs the CF SLX 8, stack and reach are essentially the same.
Then, I just found another article that says that's compared to the Ultimate and Aeroad, so NO change in geometry. If that's the case, great! But still irrelevant to me, since I already HAVE an Endurace I'm very happy with.
