Any of the frames you list would be great to build up, assuming they fit you properly.

Black Mountain Cycles is one ill mention since I own a canti brake gravel frame and love it.
Mike Varley, the shop owner, designed bikes for many years and created this brand just over 10 years ago.
Canti brake gravel frame or disc brake gravel frame are available.

They are well thought out in terms of design and the construction is excellent(Maxway of Taiwan). Tubing is heat treated and 8/5/8 double butted cromoly.
Best of all- builds are straight forward and nothing wonky or surprising. Mike taps all threads before shipping frames to ensure the build is quick and easy.
