That Niner looks great,
Only two boxes It does not check off for me,
1) I kinda wanted wet brakes,
2) It has more of a 'Race' geo and I wanted the taller front end, (Stack height) I think Its called.
Was leaning closer to 71 degree head tube angles,
I'm finding most bikes labeled 'Gravel' are re tasked CX race frames, and thats all fine and dandy.
But the taller front ends, longer head tubes, etc that are showing up with the 'Gravel' or 'Endurace' label are better suited for racking up more miles, I'm told.
I'm ok with being a little more upright when down In the drops or out on the horns.
