I bought an endurance bike after a back operation 4 years ago, as part of my efforts to get fit after a few years of pain-enforced sedentary living. In November, I bought a Road Bike and so far in 2021 I’ve ridden it over 1800 miles.
I much prefer riding the road bike vs the endurance bike. But the endurance bike did help me to lose weight and get fit enough to want the more purposeful bike.
I’m 67.
