Finally pulled the trigger on ordering a (TanTan) Seraph GR201 frame (same as Tideace Noah)... watch this space for build photos
I haven't really felt the need to upgrade, I ride on dirt roads and it's kind of fun being underbiked on my old CX bike.
But doing group rides I would have to go so much slower on 33mm tires and rim brakes, the new frame has clearance for up to 50mm (2.1 inch) tires.
Plus that huge downtube storage area looks great, instead of carrying a tool bottle I can actually use two water bottles for long rides.
Probably order some 9Velo gravel rims from Panda Podium, and finish it off with the new 13 speed Rival or Force XPLR AXS E1 groupset depending on budget
