WTB: Rigid MTB/Commuter/Gravel 55/Large <$2k

[077XX]

Just looking for a fun bike to ride mellow trails with my wife, fireroads, some pavement/rail trail. Rigid Highball/Chisel would be cool, but open to fatter tire gravel/cx bikes. Flat bar preferred. 54-56 / Large MTB. <$2k. Anyone holding?

I have one of these as my commuter / beater / get around town, and I can't recommend it enough. Good, diverse geometry, supple ride, all the mounts, not too heavy (roughly 3 kg for frameset) and decent looks. For clyde's asking price you should be well below your budget once getting all the parts.

Was actually ready to jump on this, but too small for me unfortunately. Thanks though!
