My bad, in the fog of early morning while waiting for my coffee to brew, I thought the bike in question had an 11-48 cluster. Some of the 1X gravel bikes do have really wide range clusters like 11-48 or 11-50 I guess I was thinking of one of them. The 11-32 with the 48/31 would be okay for me especially very lightly loaded, but obviously not for a lot of folks especially if carrying much. It is targeted to a different audience as you say.
