I am looking for a gravel bike for bikepacking. I have read from many people that the [Marin nicasio +](https://www.marinbikes.com/de/bikes/2023-nicasio-plus-2) is supposed to be good and also has a good geometry. Some other people have also recommended the [cube nuroad](https://www.cube.eu/de-de/cube-nuroad-fe-deepblue-n-metalgrey/e46fc30702b728af618c4a1bed295990) which is easier to get in Germany and I think has better components (I’m not sure). Which bike should I get?
I would also be interested to know how big the difference in [geometry](https://bikeinsights.com/compare?geometries=65b36aa0aeee97001ac93459,61bbd61c203ab2001fb7440e) is? I have also added a picture where you can see the geometry (the marin is white and the nurode is black).
Are there any other gravel bikes you would recommend?
If i should get the cube which one should i get?
