i would like to ask the cx hive mind about a bike which suits my needs... not all of which are cx. in fact, few of which are cx.
i would like:
i'm looking for a bike i can do some mild offroading, some cx, put bags or panniers on and go touring on, or put some skinnier tyres on and ride it on the road/commute on it. because it'd do multiple jobs i'm happy to fork out for a thing that'll last (and i want it to last) but don't actually, um, have any money so looking for as cheap as possible.
laner suggested the arkose which is rad but i hate the colour and would rather have steel.... and because i'm a terrible hipster i was looking at the allcity macho king (which doesn't even have the mounts i need but does have a Sweet Fade). genesis bikes look really expensive. i don't know a lot about these types of bikes so open to ideas.
