We have one of these and it does great on Gravel BUT I think the prevailing consensus on Gravel Specific bikes would be the BB is not as low as desirable. It is actually on the higher side at 65 (same as Kona's excellent cyclocross bikes). The Rove is more of a best pic all-round fun/adventure bike for those who tend to ride quick. That said it might still be a top pick for a competitive event riders who win races like the DK200. See lower on this page for info about winners bike:
