gillies-
Thanks. Next step is to get some tan wall Gravelkings for some off road exploration. Probably need to get a 34t inner ring though, 36-30 is a bit tall.
Also unsure about the 160mm rear rotor. Had a dicey moment coming down a hill into an intersection today where I locked up the rear and nearly skidded into the path of a car. This is my first disc brake bike so I'm still adjusting to the braking, but it feels like a 160 rear rotor is overkill for road riding.

Finally built up my "gravel" bike, although it's in disguise as a roadie at the moment.
Picked up a 2018 Genesis Datum frame at a 50% discount then built it up (courtesy of SBC) with R8070 and Hunt 4season gravel wheels.
Currently with 28mm Pirelli 4S and kinesis mudguards but I'm going to pick up some 35mm Gravelking SK tyres to explore a bit off-road.
