Decided to move from MTB to gravel bike
In my budget there are two options in local store. Both bikes are same price and similar specs. Maybe you have some thoughts about any of these brands.
1. Merida silex 400
2. Bergamont grandurance 6
Both got GRX400 and on paper there are not much a diference

Hard to tell if it’s two of the same size bike but the first one looks slacker and higher so will likely be more comfortable, second one will be racier, faster but less comfy.
Bergamont could be with aluminum fork, while Merida has carbon one, though not the fan of geometry (new silex looks much better than the older ones)
Main difference to me is the height of the handlebar relative to the seat. The Silex has a better, more level, height between the two. I think that makes for a better ride.
