I have a fleet of bikes, road, tourer, folders and an excellent lightweight MTB from 2003 (a Cannondale F1000SL from 2003). The MTB has had virtually zero use in the past several years (like literally twice) and the headset has now packed up and due to being a HeadShok parts are not available probably without cannibalising
a second hand one that I can't really be stuffed to do
So bearing in mind my off roading is occasional and generally mild to say the least I am looking at a gravel bike (not really sure of the difference between CX/gravel/adventure) with fattish tyres, disks and gearing to winch me up the side of a mountain. Seems there are a lot of them these days with single front ring, which I assume is fine?
Budget £1000 max at a guess. I am assuming that will give me alloy frame and carbon forks.
Really after some guidance on where to start.
