Mathieu van der Poel, Jasper Philipsen, Tibor Del Grosso, they are all looking forward to the <strong>Canyon Endurace CFR<\/strong> under their backside. Not just any bicycle, but a <strong>Race Monster<\/strong> that combines comfort, speed and robustness like no other. Because on the hellish cobbles of Paris-Roubaix, every watt, every millimetre and every gram counts. It did not lead to the desired result this year. But one could safely say that it wasn't the bike's fault. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Waarom is de <strong>Endurance CFR<\/strong> one of the sensations of the season? Because Canyon has invested in <strong>two worlds<\/strong>endurance en all-road. A bike that is not only comfortable on long journeys, but also <strong>lightning fast<\/strong> on the motorways and <strong>indestructible<\/strong> on the cobblestones. And the best part? This bike is now available for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"2649\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingreview.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/665096-kramon_260324_E3recon_Canyon_00730-f2e0bf-original-1775214087-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2649\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cyclingreview.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/665096-kramon_260324_E3recon_Canyon_00730-f2e0bf-original-1775214087-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cyclingreview.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/665096-kramon_260324_E3recon_Canyon_00730-f2e0bf-original-1775214087-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cyclingreview.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/665096-kramon_260324_E3recon_Canyon_00730-f2e0bf-original-1775214087-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cyclingreview.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/665096-kramon_260324_E3recon_Canyon_00730-f2e0bf-original-1775214087-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cyclingreview.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/665096-kramon_260324_E3recon_Canyon_00730-f2e0bf-original-1775214087-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cyclingreview.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/665096-kramon_260324_E3recon_Canyon_00730-f2e0bf-original-1775214087-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/cyclingreview.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/665096-kramon_260324_E3recon_Canyon_00730-f2e0bf-original-1775214087.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Team Alpecin-PremierTech riding their newest Canyon Endurace bikes during the reconnaissance of the E3 \u2013 Saxo Classic parcours (BEL\/2026), a few days ahead of the race.<br><br>\u00a9kramon<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">From 25 mm to 35 mm<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Endurace is no newcomer. Ever since <strong>2014<\/strong> set the standard for endurance bikes. But with the arrival of <strong>Disc brakes<\/strong> and the <strong>Bandwidth revolution<\/strong> A world of possibilities has emerged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>2014:<\/strong> The first Endurace CF was praised for its comfort and grip, with 25mm tyres on 18mm rims \u2013 a revolution at the time. This was because everyone was still riding on 23mm (and some were still on the old 21mm) tyres back then.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>2016 and 2023<\/strong> Grote upgrades maakten de Endurace tot een van de <strong>best-selling endurance bikes<\/strong> in the world. Mathieu also had something to do with that. But the sponsorship of the Movistar team and the visibility through other influencers and good cyclists also helped with that.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>2026:<\/strong> The Endurace CFR goes one step further. With the ability to accommodate up to <strong>35 mm tyres<\/strong> to put, a <strong>stiffer frame<\/strong> and a <strong>aerodynamic design<\/strong> Given that it can do almost the same as the Aeroad CFR, this is the perfect all-road race bike.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex
