Hello all,
I have been looking for the right endurance bike for me for quite some time, and I think I have finally settled on the 2020 Pina Prince. While not full endurance like a Domane or Roubaix, I found this geometry to be nice for me.
Does anyone own a Pinarello Prince that can comment on the endurance side in terms of being comfortable over longer rides (50-100 miles), and how it reacts to rougher roads? My test ride from the store is never any more than 4 miles at most, so I am unable to judge this part of the experience.
I mainly ride ~ 40 miles on weekends and then participate in events that go from 50 - 100 miles. While not as comfortable and smooth as a Roubaix would be, I am hoping the Prince can hold its own over longer distances without discomfort.
Thanks for any input you can give me!
Side notes: I am considering tearing off the wheels day 1 and replacing both the wheelset and cassette with a 28mm 11/32 option rather than the 25mm 11/28 it comes with. That may be the only thing I dislike out of the box with this bike. Also, my second choice in the running is the BMC Roadmachine, while I love the ride, the road fatigue is noticeable only after 5 miles.
