About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
I've been looking at this Planet X gravel bike at £1500 (was £2299.99) for the last couple of weeks and weighing up whether to go for it, as I can get it through the Cycle to work scheme. I just got an email from Planet X with the 10% code until Saturday which made me pull the trigger at just under £1380 including delivery. With the cycle to work discount factored in (you can use the voucher code MAY10 with the cycle to work voucher), for me it was a no-brainer. Currently only available in the White and Marine colourway as in the photo above, Large (4 in stock) and XL (2 in stock) only at the time of posting. It looks like the sizing comes up pretty large with the size L having a 570mm effective top tube, so I might have to swap the stem for a slighlty shorter one when it arrives.
£1380 looks a great price to me for a carbon gravel bike with full carbon fork, carbon seatpost, SRAM Force 1 x 11 groupset (carbon crankset and levers) with hydraulic disc Force brakes. Force is the SRAM equivalent to Shimano's Ultegra, the top-but-one groupset in the line-up.
Spec:
Carbon Fibre Frameset, flat mount disc, bolt thru 12mm (100mm front/142mm rear), 43mm clearance
SRAM Force 1 Groupset (1x11 speed)
SRAM Force 1 GXP Chainset - 42T chainring
SRAM PG1130 11-42T Cassette
Fulcrum Racing 900 700c Centerlock Wheelset
Panaracer Comet Hardpack tyres, 38mm
Selcof Zeta V2 6061 Alloy Stem - 100mm
Selcof Zeta 42cm Road Bar
San Marco Monza Start Saddle
Carbon seatpost (unknown) is mentioned in the description
As ever, pedals are not included, and if you really must have an explanation for why then you can read it on the Planet X page.

sorted byThe SRAM Force 1 is a great groupset and for most people easier gearing is better than something overgeared.
Yep nice! (edited)
I bought one of these last year and it's been fantastic - I chose the other colour scheme, which I preferred. I flipped the wheels for some lighter ones (kept the originals as a spare set) and it rides brilliantly.
It would have been nice to have a better grip tape but I usually double wrap with a decent tape on the outside anyway, so it will make me get around to that.
But it looks good value overall, looking forward to getting out on it...
