Look at the Trek Checkpoint range

Don't buy a CX bike if you stick to the road. The OG winter road bike is a bit dead since everyone is buying a gravel / adventure bike these days. What's your budget?

You're not far away with a CAAD12.
My CAAD12 Disc has 30mm Schwalbe G-One speed (on a Hunt wheelset) on.
28s and you might be able to find guards, albeit something like Raceblades
Sumo

@Thick_Hollins
Can anyone recommend me a winter road bike, or give me an idea of where to start looking, for using c.28mm tyres and full guards, disc brakes. I'm not looking for a do-it-all bike, I'd like something fast, fairly light, with aggressive geometry.
I'm not exactly sure how far eg. a CAADX would approach the feeling of riding a CAAD12, or whether a Ribble would feel sluggish. Maybe my best approach would be to look for as small a frame as possible with a long stem?
