I'd like to get into cycling and I right now I've found these two bikes (from Estonia). I'd like to ride on gravel and forest paths, but also train on the road (for smaller triathlons, and maybe Ironman one day). So I've found these two bikes right now. One is a brand new Trek Domane AL 2 (839€) and the other one is a used Scott Speedster Gravel 30 (850€).
Which one is better (more versatile)?
As far as I understand, Trek bike can also accommodate larger tires, so it can be used as a gravel bike as well, but I may be wrong, so please correct me on that.
Thank you!!!

Scott is much better bike, uncomperable really.
Better groupset,hydraulics,2×10 and it’s not American brand.
