Is this bike too much?

I was searching online for a bike for sometime mainly for commuting 5-6km around 3-4 miles, and like it usually happens for a little bit more theres always a better bike lol. I was initially wanting to spend around 1000€, but then I found this bike, I don't know maybe I also do some longer routes on Sundays, I also live in the country so there are some nice dirt roads. Thoughts?

Worth 500€? Scott Speedster 30 (2021)

Hi all,

I am going to start road cycling and this might be my first road bike. The starting price was 550€ but the seller told they could go down to 500€. Is it a good deal or should I push for lower?

Thanks for your time in advance.

Trek or Liv as first bike

Wanting to get into cycling but having a hard time deciding what bike to get. Live in a small town so unfortunately there’s no bike shop around to get advice. Torn between Liv Avail AR 1 (or 3) and Trek Domane AL 4. Anyone have any advice? recommendation? I’m 5’6 for reference so between sizes for both the Liv and the Trek, which is part of my hesitation on ordering either online.

Worth 500€? Scott Addict 2015 + Tacx roller

Hi all,

I am going to start road cycling and this might be my first road bike. The starting price was 500€ and the seller is insisting on it. The brakes are Shimano 105 and the bike comes with a Tacx roller. Is it a good deal and a good bike for beginners?

Thanks for your time in advance.

unsure of what size frame in the specialized diverge 3 line

For context, I am a 5'5 female with a pants inseam of 30-31". I currently ride a cannondale quick in size medium 2015/2017. I ride primarily road and rail trail with occasional light gravel. I am upgrading my bike to something more comfortable for longer distances. Chatgpt says I should order the specialized diverge 3 in a 52cm, but looking at specs I am unsure if I should be in that size or the 49. I dont want to be scrunched, but also want to be able to stand. There are none nearby that I can test ride so I am left having to order online. Any thoughts?
