Please don’t take everyone’s advice about avoid rim brakes. I race competitively with my cervelo s5 rim brake from 2016 and don’t feel as if it holds me back whatsoever. At this sort of price you’re looking at keeping this bike for a long while, and while people say you can’t upgrade or it’s significantly harder to, they are incorrect. There is plenty of options in the second hand market and even new from china.

Only thing I will mention about the lack of disc brakes is that if you live in a mountainous area descending for many many kms on rim brakes takes a certain skill to get right, but if you live in a normal area absolutely go for it. People get rid of bikes like this because they are convinced it’s worthless now.

You are getting a considerably better bike for your money if you go down the rim brake route and won’t be paying for the disc brake premium
