    You had a mountainbike with drop bars?
    Unusual.

    Also: Basically all gravelbikes come with disc brakes, major distinction to roadbikes.

    I had a Randonneur-like bike in my youth in the 80s, which had some features common with the recent gravelbikes.

    I liked it very much, so was very happy when gravelbikes became a thing 10 years ago or so.

        Different kind of drop bars than on a road bike, though: Wider and more upright sitting position.
        Worth trying out at least once when looking for a new bike.
