Depends what you need. A 42*42 seems quite low for me but maybe you'd want lower for heavier hilly touring. But that's not a gravel bikes specialty.

I mean the other end, gravel bikes to me seem like they'd be pretty decent all 'rounders. But I'd want 48/11 as a minimum could probably settle for a 38/48. The granny ring on my triple sees little use even with a trailer or kiddie seat and some stiff inclines. (I'm running an old and cheap 28-38-48 x 30-11) on 700 wheels.

My mountain bike has the same problem, I spin out to quickly.

Really don't get this single chain ring is great thing.

Didn't bother Beryl Burton. Apparently she regularly rode a 60 tooth chainring in races.
Good enough for Beryl etc..

Never heard of Presca, anybody any knowledge of quality and whether these are genuine bargains ?

Flat races no problem. She could max attack. I don’t recall her ever doing much steep stuff only very long flatter rides.

Worth a punt maybe.....

11 speed chain £10.99: https://www.wiggle.co.uk/taya-onze-111-11-speed-chain
12 speed chain £12.99: https://www.wiggle.co.uk/taya-tolv-121-12-speed-chain

Might be made of chocolate, but I've taken a punt as spares.

Ortlieb Back Roller City panniers for £65 for the red/black option being sold by Amazon - they generally seem to be around the £80+ mark elsewhere. I've taken a punt in advance of my new commuter bike (eventually) arriving as they seem to get very good reviews.
