I’ve been on a specialized diverge alloy for 2 years and about 2000 miles through every type of terrain imaginable and it rides strong. Never had a single issue. Pathfinder pro tires will likely be a good bet if you’re mixing gravel and road. My next bike will absolutely be a diverge.
I’d go 1x with a big cassette in the back if there are hills/mountains where you live. The new sram mullet drivetrains are rad.
I'd second the diverge. I ride a base e5 with the pathfinder pros. I usually am just riding on the street but it's a great feeling bike and I like that I can take it out for some light trail action if I ever feel like it. Usually, I'm just happy to be riding. Maybe I'll get around to changing it to a 1x.
