Trek Boone
CX racers. If you want gravel capability, look at Checkpoint or Checkmate instead.

Sportives, gran fondos, and riders coming off a race bike who want more stack without going full gravel.
Taller stack, longer stays, and calmer steering than the Ultimate. It still pedals like a Canyon road bike, but it takes the edge off chipseal and all-day hours.
CX and gravel racers who size like a road-race bike. If you want Future Shock and mounts, Diverge is the sibling.
The light gravel/CX race bike: lower and snappier than Diverge, with less adventure hardware. It feels like a Tarmac that grew tire clearance.
