I have just shy of 10,000 miles on a Ritchey Swiss Cross Disc, and I put just shy of 20,000 miles on a KHS CX100. If you want to go +20mph all day, look at something else. Otherwise, a gravel/CX bike will serve you perfectly well as a "road bike."

I ride my Swiss Cross on the road probably 70% of the time, and see no compelling reason to change out the 700x35 Hutchinson Overides that are on it every day.

I would lean toward the Felt, unless you have plans of lots of big climbs. The Felt's gearing is more road-friendly.
