I’m exploring my biking world to Gravel, as more and more I think with less cars to worry, Gravel is a good option to my current road biking.
As my current option, my LBS has new old stock Trek SL5 Gen 2 for $2300. I’ve been reading a lot of good reviews on this, do you think with the offer, it’s a fair deal? Thanks all!

I’ve got the same bike at the same price, for sure a good deal!
However the stock wheels hold it back a bit, it would be a nice upgrade down the road if you like gravel 🙂
I got the same one in red a few months ago. Just make sure you get the right size. A good deal isn’t a good deal if you’re getting a size too big or too small if inventory is limited.
Great value. I got the SRAM 1x version and it’s been fantastic. As the other folks mentioned, wheels are a weak spot, but not bad by any means. The stock tires are hot garbage though.
