been a dedicated roadie/tri for awhile and am looking to get into CX (for gravel+road, no real MTB, downhill or wet dirt stuff)
frame material preference: carbon / steel / titanium / alum? carbon is lighter but is it as durable as others? is weight saving worth it?
what size tires are optimal for both road and off-road?
always been a hi-end Shimano guy, but fancy a SRAM Force 1X Disc group - does it makes sense or will a Rival 1X do? or stick to 105 / Ultegra?
lots of rolling hills here: size chainring? cass?
thanks for your advice!
