"More comfortable" is relative. I recently bought the Trek version of an endurance bike (Domane) for about the same price.
On any ride longer than 45 minutes my feet, hands, and (especially) rear start to hurt. And I'm used to riding for an hour in an exercise bike.
My bike fit did a lot to eliminate much of the pain in the saddle and now I'm down to my sit bones hurting.
In other words, simply buying an endurance bike might not be a cure all. You'll still be in a relatively aggressive position. And if you are like my and but used to riding a road bike, I'd hate for you to spend lots of money on a bike that hurts you.
