Isnt Breezer mostly a bike shop brand? I saw a handful of Breezer drop bar bikes in a local store last week...I figured they were predominantly a store brand. As such, there wouldnt be a link to available stock.
Either way though, the thread asked for bikes under $950. Who knows if they are in stock or in the correct size at any given moment.

My current winter bike is a Specialized Crux that's running a 1x8 and cantis. It's a great bike, but I keep thinking of jumping laterally to a disc GX-proper steed (the Cruz has no fender mounts and the geometry is pure cx). I almost click 'buy' every time I see the State all road. It's on my shortlist for sure...

Poseidon X or Redwood is maybe the best bang for the buck, if you're cool with that geometry.
I rather ride more upright as I get older and ridding off road.
Going to have to ask Poseidon what size stem comes on the XL.
Looks like OP has not been Back. But here are a few more to add to the list.
Marin Gestal 6061 Aluminum frame/fork &900
GT Grade Elite Aluminum frame/ carbon fork/ Thru Axle $1000
Pure Cycles Gravel Adventure Pro $900
Polygon Bend R2/ carbon fork/
Added
I deleted a few things , mostly about the Poseidon X and Redwood geometry
And I got a few prices and model mixed up on other bikes. Might be price changes for newer models.
After doing a little more research . I'm leaning toward buying a Poseidon Redwood one of these days.
It is a interesting bike with some different geometry.
another update
Not interested in the Poseidon Redwood anymore. Not a good fit for my frame , heavy and would end up replacing almost everything.
Something like the Polygon Bend , Gestalt or Rove and few others
would fit me better as I like their geometry , brand etc.. the most.
Would probably spend a little more and get SHIMANO GRX or Sram Apex.
