If he specifically wants a road and not a gravel bike I would go for a Roubaix or a Synapse or the BMC Road Machine. I have ridden all 3 and they are all good and comfortable with the BMC possibly the most "racy" and less comfortable of the 3. 

 

Whatever you decide just please do not let him buy an e bike.... that will make him look and perhaps feel old long before his time.

Thanks, that also helps a lot, and no, there is not a snowball's chance in hell that he will buy an ebike.
