I still say a typical gravel course is tougher than Paris-Roubaix for any given rider, or at least I don't see a huge difference based on the videos out there.

I'd love to put half a dozen P-R pro riders on Niner BSBs and Jamis Renegades, launch them on a 130 mile race through the Alabama countryside with the fellas then see what they say. Maybe that former CX world champ in the video would dig it but I'll bet most would be pretty beat up.

But yeah, keep trying to convince me. I'm open.

Probably the only person who's qualified to compare them, Ted King. Neither appears to be a walk in the park or Sat gravel ride https://blog.strava.com/dirty-kanza-...roubaix-12029/
