I'm not a super flexible rider so I don't get real low, have a few spacer. Can get a size L right now or continue to shop and look for a M/L. Thoughts?
Fit on modern gravel bikes IMO is closer to sizing for a modern MTB. I 5'11" with a 32-33" inseam and I previously rode a size L Revolt. I sold my first Revolt last year (unrelated reason) and recently I got the Revolt Advanced in XL. This allowed me to have a higher stack height w/o using an angled stem, as well as a shorter stem and wider bars for handling that I *personally* prefer. I have plenty of standover too running 700 x 42.99? tires (If you know, you know).
TL: DR - For a Road fit, size according to your road bike. For a more MTB fit, size up.
