I'm not a "need the latest version" type if person.
At 7PM last Friday I began my 12 hour Relay For Life ride and rode the first 100 miles on my 1983 hybridized Waterford Road Racing Columbus tubing Paramount. After a stop at my house I continued on my 2018 Specialized Robaix Expert, a 67th year birthday present from my wife, for an additional 33 miles shortened due to 2 flats. Did not ride the 2013 Giant Propel Advanced SL, (another present from my wife to ride the 112 miles in my first Ironman Florida event in 2013) because I am replacing shift cables. Just got back from doctor visit for a required injection followed by drug store stop and 2 food store stops riding my $100.00, 2002 Magna 7 speed hybrid purchased at Target. 800+ miles per year riding the Magna.
