This bike represents a significant upgrade for me since I parted ways with my Trek 1500. For now, I've been splitting time in the saddle between a Scott Metrix hybrid and my trusty lugged Trek 970 which also fills a duel role during the winter months here. I will continue to receive enjoyment in owing and riding those bikes irrespective of this latest acquisition. I should mention that I got the Creo SL as an early 60th B-day gift for myself. To enhance the versatility of this bike, I'll likely complement it with a gravel wheelset. With that said, it's always nice to have one eye on the past and one eye on the future.
FWIW, I'm recently retired and looking forward to many more hours in the saddle.
