Will an upgraded bike REALLY be worth it?
Hi everyone
I've been itching to buy a new bike, but I'm wondering if my budget will really get me enough to make a big enough change
My current setup is a Giant OCR C3. Full carbon. Shimano 105 (with Ultegra front derailleur). 3x10 speed. The bike is about 12 years old. Nothing really wrong with it. Changing gears is not as smooth sometimes, but overall solid. Rim brakes.
I'm eyeing something like the 2020 Canyon Endurace Carbon Fiber Disc brakes - full Shimano 105
The Endurace will probably set me back around $2500 all up. Is it worth spending the money? Will the new ride feel so drastically improved that I won't regret it?
My trade-off is to stick with my road bike and use the cash for a mountain bike for occasional trail rides
