I've been very happy with my 2022 Trek Checkpoint ALR5, which was mentioned in a few previous replies. Besides the component level and versatility, I like the fact that it is very serviceable: threaded bottom bracket (that was a change for 2022), round seatpost (not proprietary), and no cables running through the headtube/steerer. I have about 600 miles on mine with no issues. Its been ridden about 70/30 paved/unpaved. Unpaved being mostly hardpack and gravel. It comes set up tubeless. With the 40mm tires at 40-45 psi I don't notice "road buzz". I would buy it again.
