This CX bike was posted on the local buy/sell, and while I didn't have any plans to buy a gravel bike, it was such a great deal I had to jump on it. It's a 2013 Kona 'Jake the Snake' with Shimano Ultegra rear deraileur, and other parts 105. The original owner was a guy who wanted to use it as a commuter, as well as some gravel riding. He put maybe 1500 kms on this thing, but he's the type of rider who would think that is a lot over the time that he had it. Ultimately he decided he wanted something more upright and plush. With the taxes in, this bike originally cost about $1800 Canadian. Picked it up for $600, not bad for a bike that is pretty much brand new IMO. Super comfortable to ride
