I’d like a gravel bike thing to follow cjr around Epping Forest, I’d also like to replace my Ribble 525 commuter / winter bike.
Can a gravel bike have full mudguards and still function on paths and light trails? Do decent, easily removable full mudguards exist?
What’s the bike that’ll do Epping paths, commute and 4 hour road rides on a weekend in winter? Ideally not generic and boring, steel is cool for locking up etc but carbon is nice too… I’ve never bought a full bike new, but not adverse to the idea. Happy to build up from second hand or new frame too.
