Hi, I am looking getting a gravel bike and have been researching the interwebs for the last month or so. There seems to be very little choice available in South Africa wrt Gravel bikes. Also, most international sites (in fact ALL international sites I have looked at!) do not seem to ship full bikes, so sourcing from oversees also do not seem like an option. Let me also say, I am looking for a Gravel bike and not a cyclocross bike as I want the slightly more relaxed geometry a gravel bike offers, and I definitely want Hydraulic discs not mechanical or anything cantilever... I am looking to spend around R30k. In terms of locally, the only ones I have been able to find are: - Cannondale Slate (too expensive and I don't think its worth paying as much for only 30mm of travel) - Cannondale CaadX and SuperX (really more Cyclocross bikes than gravel bikes I think, also most of the affordable models have mechanical discs, and I'm not a fan of mechanical disks) - Scott Speedster 10 Gravel (looks like a nice option, comes with Hydro disk brakes for a really nice price) - Spaz Diverge and Seqoia (expensive for what you get, SA also seems a bit limited in terms of the specific models we get. Most of the affordable models also come with mechanical discs - meh) - Trek Crockett 5 (also mechanical disks...) - GT Grade various models (looks pretty good value, but usually out of stock everywhere!) So my question, what gravel bikes does the Bikehub community own and where did you get it from?
