Six of the best Endurance bikes - Churn out the miles in comfort
Are you in the market for a road bike that will provide comfort for those longer rides you've got planned in 2018? What you need is an endurance bike, and the market is awash with choice. To help you narrow down that choice, we've picked six of the best endurance bikes we've tested here at road.cc.

David worked on the road.cc tech team from 2012-2020. Previously he was editor of Bikemagic.com and before that staff writer at RCUK. He's a seasoned cyclist of all disciplines, from road to mountain biking, touring to cyclo-cross, he only wishes he had time to ride them all. He's mildly competitive, though he'll never admit it, and is a frequent road racer but is too lazy to do really well. He currently resides in the Cotswolds, and you can now find him over on his own YouTube channel David Arthur - Just Ride Bikes.
