I have had so many gravel/cx/allroad bikes over the past few years in just about every material out there. They are great bikes and can definitely be the only one for those who choose the minimalist bike life!

I no longer care about PR's and segments. I care about the fun factor and the real option of riding nearly anywhere I want, at any time.

It's about so much more than the tires, too. I put 25s on the Anderson for a few rides, and it still is not the same as the FF.
Sparky33 showed us his awesome FF 650B designed as a road bike. But then he showed us the Built road bike that followed it. A no compromise road ride. |

of course everyone is giving their opinions. for some a quiver killer it is.
for others, that exact same quiver killer is a compromise. not saying a quiver killer is not fun. just saying that for some, a road race bike (even one that is not used for racing or chasing PRs and KOMs) is also fun. and fun in a different way than a mtb, gravel, or an all road bike. |

Although I love high end steel and covet custom Ti, nowadays it is carbon composite construction that rules in aircraft, racing automobiles, tennis rackets... Carbon monocoque all road frame made for fast road work w hydralic discs, aero wide carbon rims, electronic shifting is the hot ticket for an all purpose road bike that can roam around and not get in trouble. The 3T Exploro looked the best for me. I've had one for 6 months and have only ridden something else when doing rough gravel. I am running Conti GP Urban 700 x 35's on the 3T and am very happy. A little more cushion is never bad.
