I’m new to biking and I’m adding it to my routine mainly for overall fitness and cutting. I want a solid bike I can use for longer rides to burn fat and get cardio in on days I’m not running.

I’ve been looking at the Trek Domane AL series — specifically the AL 5, AL 4, and AL 2. Given that I’m just starting out, does it make sense to go for the higher-end Domane AL 5, or should I just get the AL 2 (or AL 4) for now?

I’m also thinking ahead: if I end up really getting into biking, I’ll probably want to upgrade eventually anyway. In that case, is it smarter to buy the best one now so I don’t have to deal with selling/trading up later?

Any advice from people who started with the AL series would be awesome. Thanks!
