I’m a relative beginner looking at the following used bike on marketplace and am wondering if it’s a good deal:

$1000
Devinci Troy NX 29, 2019.
Supposedly rarely ridden. Does appear to look minimally used.

Not sure how to attach photos since they aren’t allowed in the post, but below is a link to the same model:

I’m also considering hardtails as I know those are often recommended to start on. But I’d also rather buy a bike I’ll be happier with for a longer time. My budget is $1000. At this price point it seems like used is the way to go, instead of a lower-end new bike. At the same time, I know technology advances pretty quickly and that 2019 could already be a bit outdated. Any thoughts or other recommendations are appreciated.

I plan to ride within my limits, nothing too crazy, don’t anticipate doing jumps any time soon.

Thanks for your time, I seriously appreciate any input from all of you experts.
