I'm new to gravel biking and recently took part with my mountain bike and regretted using it when those gravel bikes flew past me.
I've personally bought this brand new at R3999 simply because I'll probably only use it once a year I'm not into road/gravel biking and found this bike to be exactly what I want from this type of bike, it's very lightweight, feels agile and yes I am considering getting a better quality group set but I honestly don't see anything wrong with it but of course keep bashing guys I like the negative reviews it's making this lovely bike cheaper and cheaper 😊.
