Follwoing all the advice above I found the Vitus Energie Cyclocross Bike (Apex 1x11 -2019) on sale for £749.99
https://www.wiggle.co.uk/vitus-energie-cyclocross-bike-apex-1x11-2019/and the Vitus Energie VR Cyclocross Bike (Rival 1x11 - 2019) on sale for £959.99
https://www.wiggle.co.uk/vitus-energie-vr-cyclocross-bike-rival-1x11-2019/The Vitus Energie VR Cyclocross reads well but personally I am not a fan of the colorway (I know this is the last thing you should probably worry about but you need to love that bike right?). Could just get it custom painted right?
What do you guys think worth a punt? :)

Cheers guys super helpful! Think I’m going to look in to the Canyon, Ribble and Vitus. The Canyon looks particularly sweet, but that Vitus looks like it would do the trick @Netakure

Hi all. Hope this is the right place to post. Transitioning from 10 years of FGSS to gravel (massively influenced by DKlien). Selling my 8 bar on the classifieds, can’t afford two steeds. Looking for a new bike.
Love the kenisis ti, the Bombtrack hook ext and the Genasis Crux de fur ti but as compleat bikes they are a bit out of my price range. Want to aim for a min of shim 105 or shram rival. Budget of about £1000.00 maybe could push a little more. Understand that I may need to look at used or refurbished but no idea where to start looking with gravel. Don’t want to get a bike only to want to upgrade it in a months time. Any direction (good classified spots) or tips? Wondering if this might need to be a used components build with a few fresh items on it?
