2017 Trek Emonda ALR 5
Sorry if this is in the wrong category/forum. Looking for opinions on this model. Supposedly a near mint condition at $900. I know it's aluminum, just curious if anyone has experience with the ride/feel?
I've been out of cycling for about 3-4 years and kind of lost with the new models from the manafacturers. I was always a "Trek" guy before, but open to other ideas as well. My current ride is a Trek Hybrid, but ready for the open road again instead of multi-use paths and dodging golf carts in our community. A smart trainer and Zwift is in my future too....
Thanks in advance!

Is the model you're looking at equipped with disc or rim brakes?

Make sure it is full 105, it should be though.
My bike shop was selling off some demo/rentals from 2018 back in December for 900.00. So for a year older but in mint, I think that price is fair, but me being me I would offer 850.00
