Maybe @Alb can share some early catalogues of CdF that were £699 full bike!

Full credit goes to @jameso for the original vision for the CdF back in 2008. 35mm tyres were considered 'big' and disc brakes and dropbars the cycle industry equivalent of chalk and cheese. Was the original version only £699?!

i feel that was the time when gravel bikes moved from a quirky bike persons bike / nodder looking for a more comfortable road bike into something of a desirable lifestyle good, coinciding with big bike realising no-one actually wants to buy monstercross bikes, those who do can buy a xc bike.
they're much like a bookend to the EGB narrative.
