I personally would choose Shimano if my budget was for cables (Same as for road bikes). Their new 12speed stuff is soooo good, even down to Deore level. SRAM AXS is excellent though and not just a gimmick but you have to pay £££ for that
Ok, so lock in Boost and cabled Shimano.
I could share tyres/wheels between gravel and MTB bikes if I stuck with 27.5 wheels but I'm guessing you lot will all insist on 29er wheels.
