Help me pick a new gravel bike

[d8mok]

Just sold my trusty Cannondale flash so need to get a gravel bike sorted now.

Ideally Titanium , but may be open to carbon. Needs to be fast , comfy and look good.

Frame or full bike. Any deals around you’ve noticed that’s too good?

Reilly or Enigma are winning so far. Maybe Planet X but can’t cope with the brushed logos

Carbon wise maybe a Cervelo but unsure.

Tried to buy a Genesis Croix de Fer Ti frame from a bike shop online but the owner was the rudest person ever so didn’t bother. Only wanted to know the rear wheel axle width (135 or 142)

Ruled out REILLY I think due to long wait times internal cable routing.

Planet X I can’t live with those logos. And they keep moving thr price around too which is annoying

Mason Bokeh 2 is a wild card I’m going to look at this week as it’s Alloy but gets great reviews.

Enigma Eacape is current winner but I’m struggling to part with the cash mentally at moment.

Come on people there must be some modern gravel grinders out there ?

Re:

It’s like my own mini series

Anyway went for a Enigma in the end.

Like the design and long warranty compared to others. And it’s a british company too if anything is needed.

The onlyother one that sprung to mind was the range from Kinesis - saw one the other day in my LBS which looked rather nice.

Just need to make room for it and raid the piggy bank....
