Suggestions for good Allroad bike from boutique brands

Hi all,

Looking to build up an all road bike that can fit 35mm tires. Some brands that offer an all road bike that I have found is:

1. Allied Echo
2. Breadwinner
3. Horse
4. Standert


Looking at $3k and under, preferably some batch built, unique style all road bikes - not gravel but actual fastish all road bikes.

Breadwinner is a good option, and they are easy to work with.

If I were buying a new all-road bike and I wanted a "boutique" brand my first stop would be Pursuit Cycles.

Second stop would probably be Firefly. Or Hampsten.

Not really “boutique” but the new Ritchey Montebello looks pretty classy.

There were a flurry of them introduced earlier this year.

Parlee
Fifty One
Enve

Honestly, I would just get a Crux.

My first choice would be a Ritchey, Outback, Swiss Cross or Montebello-- choose your flavor, all clear 35mm or more.

since I love unique bikes with awesome paint, I'd be looking at Scarab Cycles.. https://scarabcycles.com/en-us?srslt...NLTNArEJleoFcR
