Help needed to buy yet another bike, from research, yes I used the search function:
1. Wheel clearance is becoming king.
2. CX bikes are well for CX.
3. More upright comfort is good, unless doing CX in which case buy a CX bike.
4. 40 and bigger tires are good
5. Run tubeless
So I think the Giant Revolt offers a good option, takes up to 45 wide tires. Thinking that gravel is not my main thing so go with the Tiagra model.
The question is around the giant semi Hydraulic brake, having run a mechanical disc before, i thought it was flat out dangerous, anyone have any experience of the semi hydraulic, as you have to spend more than a $1000 ore to get full hydraulic?
