Bought a Trek 1000 SL for $150. The bike rides fine, smooth shifting, very light to me, brakes well. I like the bike, but I also feel like I should have spent more for a better bike. I only average 1-2 mile rides at a time, maybe several times a day. I ride on road, sidewalk, grass, and dirt. I do get anxiety when riding on anything that isnt smooth pavement with skinny 25mm tires. Don't intend on upgrading and am just gonna ride it till something expensive breaks. Is this bike enough for my needs?

I have a similar 1500. We’ll be together 18 years this fall; club rides, events, a century ride, commuting, bike paths, laps, etc.
The bike will serve you well.
