Rose Xeon team CGF 3000 or Canyon Endurace CF 9.0 2015 models? Anyone help?
Hi,
New to the forum so apologies if this is posted in the wrong place. I'm in a dilemma over which bike of the above to upgrade to. Ridden my trusty little Cube Aerial now for 7 years and feeling the need for a bit more luxury/efficiency.
With them both being online buys I haven't test ridden either but they both have a return policy so there's reassurance there.
I like the geometry of them both, I'm a little wary of the sizing of the Canyon, when I put my measurements in I come out as needing a XS (never had XS anything before so concerned the bike won't be big enough but I'm by no means advanced enough to challenge a manufacturer)
I'm female, 5 foot 6, with inside leg measuring 78cm. The Rose put me at needing a 53cm.
Any reviews or advice would be greatly received, thanks
Sarah

We can't have that can we. Much better to risk killing vulnerable road users. Less damage to the cars.

I may be of some help!
Bought the Endurace CF in small thinking that XS would be to small only to have to send it back and exchanged for XS. I'm also 5.6 with 79 inseam. With the small couldn't get the seatpost low enough. got the XS with a 100mm stem and 40mm handlebars and fits fine. Only difference I notice is a more agile bike than the small. If going for Canyon don't doubt XS. Good luck
