I thought abou this, because at first they seemed silly to me, but as I see it, it's kind of like in the mtb world, where we have a range of xc hardtail, trail, enduro and downhill types. Each type is perfect for its own type of terrain, but there's overlap between them.

• #19107
it's kind of like mtb in the sense everyone owns 5 types of bike and only rides 1 type of terrain

• #19108
Does that mean we need to rename the thread?
I am lost. Is it:

should be "amey is always right, more right than hippy with his fake gravel bike that wont even clear 2 inch tyres lol"
-
• #19110
Yeah, then in a few years time you can sell them all to get an 'All-Gravel' 'quiver-killer'.

• #19111
All these poor people who just bought a Grail and now according to the chart aren't allowed to ride them on singletrack anymore...

• #19115
Inflite is and always was a CX race bike

False. The previous gen Inflite S was sold complete with mudguards and road gearing.

That's the budget version though. Watered down. Still wasn't a gravel bike

False. There are no alloy SuperXs.

Amey is still wrong though

The rear mudguard really brings it together
So you need 4 bikes for a ride around Epping?
Hide them in the bushes and swap them based on terrain!
