I will not be trading in my matte electric blue 2020 Endurace for it, though. I've actually gotten compliments on it.

Sweet bike. I love the color.
I'm surprised Canyon can't get GP5000's. It looks like they're readily available from online sources.

Canyon Endurace CF SL 8 Di2 (what a mouthful) in Stealth Grey, size Medium
Only about 10 miles on it so I can't really speak to many of the features and ride quality other than it fits great and so far I'm very happy. Because of "supply chain" issues the Continental 5000 tires ended up be substituted with Goodyear F1 Tubeless (30mm) and at 80psi they feel like I'm riding in sand. I will be replacing them with some 25mm clinchers asap. One nice surprise was they threw in a 4iii NDS power meter. I like that it also acts as a Cadence Sensor so that I don't have to attach my Garmin sensor to the crank arm
I'm still trying to wrap my head around all this new technology. This is my first time with Di2 and Hydraulic brakes. Having 12 speeds is also pretty weird. There's just a lot to absorb.
The whole buying experience was great. I live near one of their warehouses and had it in 2 days. A few questions popped up during the assembly process but Canyon's online chat cleared those up right away.

Edit: Lovely bike though! I have an older Endurace but this one is really sweet, I like the color too.

Neh, that sounds even worse. I doubt that is what it is called in German, if they even offer it in Europe. The US market is quite different to the European one for Canyon. E.g. certain models they don't even sell in both, but just one.

To the OP, what's your height/inseam that made you go medium size?
I'm considering this bike too however I'm inbetween size S and M. I'm 181cm with 81cm inseam.
Using Canyon's website sizing tool, if I put in 181/81, then it suggests M, if I however put in 181/80 inseam, then it suggests S. Which means I'm exactly borderline between size S and M!
Thanks!

New here, I am trying to get input on the carbon fiber seat post for the Endurance. I was going to go alum, but the seat post, if it really does soften things up, would be worth going to CF,,,any input is greatly appreciated

When riding you are not really aware of the seatpost flexing, but it is very comfortable. Canyon suggest allowing 5 mm extra saddle height to compensate, so that gives you an idea how much it deflects when seated.
