Obviously these pictures aren’t mine but I thought it deserves to be shared....

Moots Routt 45








I believe it’s called the Stanley finish

Seriously though, I could at this point totally see myself being happy with a single bike that could take 650b for gravel and 700x32 for fast(er) road rides. I'd just have to give up chasing fast times on local climbs and finding enjoyment in trying to hang with the aero-bike kids on the group rides - that last 5-10% that you get out of a "real" road bike. There is a difference - but does that difference matter to you? Only one person can answer that... And I think many are finding that what they give up in top-end performance is more than made up in simplicity and comfort.

Agreed. I already had a Moots Compact, but when I was shopping for a new titanium disc gravel bike, a bike that could be "N=1" crossed my mind. I strongly considered the Routt RSL for this, but also considered exactly what you said. In my scenario, I could not give up what a pure road bike would provide.

Yes, but don't you want the BUILT version?


By Bingham I mean


Seriously though, that AXS build does look great. Kinda has me thinking about options for mine.

That's nice. If I could only have one all-road/gravel bike, that'd probably be it. But at the moment, I like my Firefly and Zanc too much to let them go.

I just got a Stigmata and love it

[Miller76]

I think it’s down to Routt RSL (Stanley finish) or No22 Drifter X (high polish finish) for me. Reynolds rims and Ultegra di2
