Giant Revolt Advanced
Gravel riders who want Giant's drop-bar all-road, not a TCR with knobbies.
Giant's gravel bike: stable, mounts, and a position between Defy and a race gravel whip. The X variants add more suspension/travel attitude.

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.
Gravel riders who want one bike for events and weekends, not a dedicated race whip.
Trek's gravel all-rounder: stable, mounts everywhere, calmer than the Checkmate race bike. It likes loaded days more than a CX bike does.
