There are not that big of a problem honestly. Usually only if you buy direct from china but they don't usually sport the stock paint schemes.
That's not a counterfeit tho. It's not a 2014 tho that appears to be a 2015. IMO that's over priced by 700 to grand. It's not full dura ace . Looks to be a stock r5 with upgraded derailleurs. I think we sold them for just over 6000 back then.
Considering that in the last year I've seen the average price of this bike either decked out in the full dura ace spec and di2 dura ace/ultegra for 3500 to 4000 .
