Fair comment.
I'm pretty relaxed about not having state of the art tech on my builds. My 2 existing gravel bikes have mini-V and Sturmey drums so I'm guessing that whatever I end up choosing will be an improvement.
Essentially I'm building a winter bike that I can use off-road in the summer and part of me still thinks that a winter bike is basic/simple/cheap.This is how I separate my personal and professional life...
Your first post says you are an engineering director, yet you want to have a custom frame built around a post mount fork and cable disc brakes? This makes absolutely no sense.
It’s probably best you just buy the Moots you were looking at.
