This makes me wonder, is an 'endurance' bike really what I'm looking for? ie. Specialized Roubaix. I'm not looking to race, but a big motivation to pick up cycling is equally for fitness and, hopefully, ride with friends to Squamish, Whistler, or down to the States, etc.

It seems like I should be looking more towards a 'performance-oriented' bike, ie. Specialized Tarmac etc.? I notice those 'performance-oriented' bikes typically don't have disc brake options.
