So I bought a 2 year old Orbea Gain road bike - carbon frame, Ultegra Di2 from Jenson USA
I passed on buying the 2022 model Gain.

For the same amount of money ($3700) the 2022 model would have been aluminum frame and Tiagra groupset.
The 2022 model with carbon frame, and Ultegra Di2 (12 speed) goes for $7000
The 2020 is lacking the display unit for ride metrics and is not as nice a color.

This is what I bought

This is the 2022 Al framed Tiagra equipped bike for same price.


appreciate everyone's advice!
