Thinking of picking up this Specialized Roubaix Elite for $475. Seller’s description is as follows: Specialized Roubaix Elite road bike. Carbon frame and fork. Shimano Ultregra components. Good fit for 6’1” rider.
This would be my first road bike. My tentative plan is to ride both outdoors and with the indoor training (Wahoo Kickr Core 2). Any and all thoughts are appreciated!

I was gonna say it’s not an amazing deal. But I don’t know much about the bike.
Here’s what other folks have said about similar makes & models:

If there aren’t many options in your size in your market, and you want it quick, see if they’d go down to $350 or $400, or just pay em $475 if you want.
300$ max
It needs a new chain . It’s a 3x and old ultegra
