Ok I have been reading as much info as I can in the last 2-3 days on gravel grinding bikes. Is there anybody on this forum that has ridden both of these bikes that can give me some feedback. I am probably buying one or the other.

I found a used Giant 2014 anyroad 1 for $600

specs
size large
lbs says sub compact crank with 34x50 upfront
rear 11 x36
he says tiagra/105 components
tires are trash on it but the bike looks to be in really good shape. Probably a trade in.

I now have been reading all about the Raleigh tamland 1

shoota just posted on this thread that Raleigh has a 56 cm Tamland on their website brand new for for $799 I knw the tamland has upgraded components as I think they have Shimano 105 which I am real familar with as I had a 105 bike and now all my road bikes are Ultegra.

Any comparisons of these bikes would be greatly appreciated as I am not a newbie to biking as my Lemond 2006 ictoirre has 20,000 mies on here. I know nothing of gravel grinding and anything will be an upgrade from my $200 Schwinn Highlander mt. bike which is just a step above a Wally World bike and might have came over on the Mayflower.

Thanks again
