Sadly, Shimano's cranks aren't bullet proof either

That is the understatement of a lifetime. Three came unglued on me. So much for them never a replacement either or even a discount. They are never getting my money again.

Re: True CX frame (not gravel) Depends on lots of things.

First how old school cx guy are you? Cx bikes from 8 to 10 years ago had way higher bb than the last few years before everything became a gravel bike.

I would personally go with a lightcarbon LCX027-D it is an older style clearance for not much over 38 but old school 65 mm bb drop. In other words a proper cx bike. Big front triangle without much slope good for shouldering.

Cx bikes are what I use to buy for my daily bike for the last 20 years or so.

What I would do is look for used bike and upgrade components. Plenty of great used cx bikes from the beginning of the disc era. A l twoo hydro group and a great set of wheels would wake up an old cx bike born with cable brakes and crap wheels.

Re: Vitus Venon I would think with what they spent in promos of this bike they probably have that mold locked up for a while.

I am in the same boat I love the new ridley kanzo adventure. Checks all boxes internal dynamo wiring front and back. It looks like a carbon bike packing dream but not gonna see that for a while if ever. I like it a bunch just not four times the cost of something else.

Does anyone know who the maker / original supplier of this fork is?  Variable rake and 700x54.  Must be one of the larger Chinese suppliers to the OEM market.

https://nordestcycles.com/producto/albarda-carbon-horquilla   -- this one.  I'm seeing quite a few brands using it now.

They make a number of different forks. That on has flip chips mounts dynamo routing and clears 55s
