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?
Lolo-
@Lolo yeah, I've got a gravel bike, and I quickly realised it's not going to do everything in the way I want it to.
I'm planning ahead for next winter, £800 frameset would be the top end I think

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?
