Hello, looking to get bike into biking (mostly road, some trails) and saw this 2018 Trek FXS5 Large f/s.
What would you say is fair value for this bike?
Seller indicates excellent condition but can't really tell from photos.
Thanks!

Without looking it up, I’d say $600-$800? I’ll google and edit if I was way off
Edit: I was pretty high relative to market https://www.bicyclebluebook.com/value-guide/2018%20Trek%20FX%20S%205/?srsltid=AfmBOooDLwLkAEVQwE3kB9DUt31vOKK_l7UJeyOJhAx-79qVseBG9IVY
I didn’t know you could even buy a carbon flat bar bike like that. Seems unnecessary and a recipe for disaster considering a general use bike like that typically doesn’t get the same care and maintenance as higher end bikes
based on how yellow those grips are compared to new ones, it has either been in the sun alot or ridden alot and gotten discolored. If it has high miles, likely will need some love in the drivetrain such as new chain or possibly worn cogs/chainring.
Tiagra and carbon, huh? Maybe $400-500? At most?
It’s not bad but 7 years old is kinda old.
