I can't help but agree with you, for 1/10 of the price of these I set up a 90s MTB and it's a hoot. Then you still actually have some money to go ride "gravel"
It's mental. Selling shit for the sake of it. It's like all the standards mountain biking dumped is attracting the 'gravel' lot.
I'm sorry but 3" tyres handle like a slug in a sandpit, it certainly ain't a "light, fast XC adventure beast".
Just get a hardtail and learn to lean back ffs.
