Right, 2021. But those typically drop in 2020, that's what I was hinting at. I'm far from an industry insider, but just from my general bike geekiness and always watching, it seems that the new models are dropping earlier and earlier. From most of the major brands I tend to start seeing old stock getting cleared out in late Summer - early September as the new models roll in. I believe the Endurace came out in 2014, and I'm not sure it has had any significant frame changes since then. That will make this design 6 years old this Fall. I bought my last road bike in the Fall of 2014, and it was discontinued shortly thereafter. That didn't make it a bad bike or a bad deal (it was great on both fronts, and still is a solid ride), but it did mean that I've been watching the new tech for the past 5 years or so, and would like to get in this time on the front end rather than the back.

I thought I had read somewhere (can't recall when or where) that the Canyon team might be borrowing from the Aeroad to make the Ultimate and the Endurace a little more slippery in the wind and produce a better overall performer. In particular, wondering if Canyon is going to follow suite with the Endurace like Trek did with the Domane (making the new Domane more aerodynamic, and allowing for up to 38mm tire clearance in the new fork). It looks like Trek is already starting to show 2021 models on their site.

Zwift leaked what should be the 2021 Aeroad, and it has some decent changes from the model below (deep section seat stays, deep seat post). That would allow Canyon to borrow from the current Aeroad and apply some of those features to the Ultimate and Endurace, while still offering something different for the new Aeroad.

If Eurobike still happens this year, that would be the first week of September. Would hope to hear some news before then.

While I'm making a list, I'm also wishing they would produce an Endurace with the silver Aeroad paint job - in addition to the standard Stealth scheme. (but we don't always get what we want :-) ) I'm sold on neutral bike color schemes - go with any kits!


Current Aeroad in silver, simple scheme but love it!

Typical stealth color scheme. Some find it "meh," but I personally like it.
