I am looking at picking up a cross bike that will double as a gravel bike (really might be a gravel rig more of the time)
Normally I ride a 56, but wondering if it makes sense to go up a size in this case; my thinking is the reach is only 10mm longer, the stack is a bit higher (more inline with gravel bikes) and the Drop would be less on the 58.
Of course you might be saying why not just get a gravel bike, for me, it is more fun to ride gravel on a CX bike than CX on a gravel bike. almost entirely due to BB height
