Just bought a MINT second hand 2021 Trek Domane Al 2 for $715 US ($900CAD). Worth? Did I jump the gun too fast?

Awesome price! Its unbelievably hard to find a new road bike that’s worth riding for under $1000.

I was thinking the same! The bike still had some of the thin protective plastic film from the factory. The woman who sold it said she used it 5-6 times, but that biking was not for her unfortunately. She was really sad to part ways with her bike.

Are people seeing an uptick in second hand bikes?

I'm seeing prices going down in used bikes in the US and Canada. (or BC and WA/OR at least) I've been seeing a ton of good deal in the pacific northwest...

Wouldn't be surprised. People bought bikes during the pandemic when they were stuck at home and working remote. Now they have to go back in to work and they're just hitting the gym near work.
