Hi forum
I've been riding a year or so now on a second-hand hybrid I bought (Boardman Hybrid, 2013 - £200)
However I have a new job, and as such will be riding to two places of work - one will be about 7 miles and all towpath (very bumpy at times) and one will be 11 miles and half towpath and half road.
As such, I'd like to invest/treat myself to a gravel bike but don't know where to start.
Some ideas of what I should look for would be helpful. Something durable as the route can be bumpy would be good but also not slow...
Don't know if I should go for titanium or aliminum?
I like the look of the Beramont Grandurance 6, from this link: https://off.road.cc/content/buying/...venture-bikes-you-can-buy-for-under-1500-7539
But really know nothing about the specification and just basing it on the aesthetic of the frame!
