@annirak you've missed all of the Genesis options from what I can see
And Kinesis.
Fair point. If memory serves (I built this list three months ago), I excluded Genesis because there were already better-equipped bikes for lower cost already in the list (it was intended for personal use and was not intended to be a comprehensive list).

I don't think I saw Kinesis.

Don't they come mainly as frame set?
They do prebuilts for their frames although they are the less desireable option. As you say though, an LBS can build one up.

Why ruin it with shimano brifters? :whistle:

I don't think the OP is spending that much on the CX part of the plan (maybe)

It's not just about the equipment ;) You can't compare steel and alu

£3000 is a lot to pay for mudguard eyelets

Are they weird hidden ones, as the Evans FAQ says it has none

My LBS has those Whytes/. Looks perfect for my needs. Very tempted indeed. My winter Trek with mudguards gets filthy rims etc and I really fancy some discs

Just got back from the Trek shop and had a chat about the Trek Domane 4.5 and on my Trek website is say's the bike has vanishing mudguard mounts..
Two questions..
1/The Spanish Trek site does not have the VMM's listed but the English Trek site has..who is right?
2/ What are vanishing mudguard mounts..
