I'm getting a new road bike for, let's call it, 80% road riding and 20% gravel. I don't ride in poor conditions, so the gravel riding is just rough (not muddy). Does anyone have thoughts on a CX bike vs Roubaix/Domane/Solace/etc.?
I don't have experience with any of these types of bikes, I've so far been existing on my S3, but its just too rough and unenjoyable a lot of times. Unfortunately, in my size, I'm not going to get to test ride anything. I'm somewhat leaning towards CX bike with a road wheelset and a gravel wheelset, though one of these endurance bikes with a single wheelset and 26C or 28C tires would probably work as well.
