Giant Revolt Advanced 2 or Cannondale Topstone 105 Carbon as Road Bike
Buying a gravel bike but want to do a lot of road riding too. Any thoughts on which of these would be better as a road bike? Also likely to get a second set of wheels for either.
Thanks.
Thanks.

The Revolt is great on the road, with a second set of wheels with road tires, most people don't even know it's a gravel bike.

Topstone requires a special dishing on the rear wheel which will greatly reduce any future wheel choices. My Giant has been great. Even though it has 42’s and a new GRX rear mech for off road duty, I find myself riding it a lot just on normal pavement rides When I dont feel like hammering it and going fast because it is so good and comfortable.
