Hi.
I need some help since I can't make up my mind. I was about to get a new road bike, a Steven Izoard Pro 2020 model which has a carbon frame, disc brakes, Ultegra 8000 for 2499 Euro.

By coincidence I noticed a bike hanging from the ceiling. It turned out to be a Stevens Xenon 2017 model with a carbon frame, Di2 shifting(but Ultegra 6800), rim brakes and it's pretty lightweight: 6.9kg. It also has a better wheelset.

Normally the 2017 model costs 1000 Euro more but I could get it for the same price of the 2020 cheaper model.
It's really a tough decision. One bike is really lightweight and has Di2 shifting but it's close to 4 years old, and the other has normal shifting but disc-brakes and is this year's model.
I tested both and both feel great.
Any recommendations? Thanks.
