Looking to get a new gravel bike. Tried the salsa warbird, didn't like it looking for a more upright ride. Giant revolt was great, and has the lead so far. Also looking at the Marin headlands 2 or the devinci hatchet. Anyone have any experience with either of these, very limited info online.
MED Revolt. Med/Large was too big. I also own a TCR advanced size Med, thus if I want to go racing around, that's my ride. It can handle very mild dirt roads [usually at slow speeds] so I tend to avoid dirt. In central NH there are a ton of dirt roads, along with more than a few bad condition paved roads. I also happens to be within 2 miles of the largest rail trail in NH that runs ~ 50 miles. So in short looking for something that can handle dirt roads, light trail [I have a YT when things get rough], and connect it all together by rolling reasonably well on the tarmac. At first I assumed I must have a 1X, but the more I think about it for most riding that may be limiting [I tend to be high cadence 90+] so I am shifting on pretty regular basis to maintain my rpm.
