Thinking of upgrading to this from what I currently have (Specialized Sequoia Elite 56cm w/105). Is this a good deal? Should I look elsewhere?

You’d have to ask yourself is you want rim brakes. They are definitely out-dated nowadays in the cycling world, but are still absolutely capable bikes and still have a place in cycling. I still have a rim brake bike; it’s the lightest bike I own actually. However, you will not be able to fit anything larger than like a 28mm tire on that bike. You can find a pretty decent disc-brake ultegra bike for that price nowadays, granted it won’t come with those zipp 303 carbon wheels, which at that time would’ve been close to $2500 alone, but this is like 2017 prices.
Is it a good price? I would say yes. Primarily because of the wheels and one piece bar and stem…
