Would a mid-range Canyon Endurace AL costing around Ā£1000 keep up with the top-of-the-range Canyon Aeroad CF SLX Disc? Or is performance solely the domain of the wealthy?
Do you think super-bikes are worth the extra money if you've got it? Or are they excessive as you can get great performance with a reasonably cheap bike?
