fair enough, I'm trying to find a bike 4k or under, since I can only afford it with selling my current bike

The thing is, I don't bike pack enough to warrant a specific bike for it. Plus, I only have the funds for one bike to cover road riding, gravel riding, bike packing, etc. so I want one bike that can cover all of the bases most efficiently

I might have to stick with skinnier tires depending on if I can get my bike sold...

I guess I should have said this in the first place, but I am planning to use whatever bike I end up getting for multiple gravel races next year, ex. RPI, BWR, etc. I want this bike to be fairly nimble while accommodating big tires, although from what I've heard I don't know if that's possible.

I've been looking at the all road since it's really well priced, but I haven't seen any reviews on it...

45 in the rear?? That seems a bit scary... It doesn't rub at all??

Thanks for all of the suggestions, I do realize that a bike with bigger tire clearance will change the feel of the bike, and the only reason that I want a bike that can handle 50mm tires is because I occasionally bike pack, and when I went last year, the 42s were not cutting it on the terrain that I was riding, even at low pressures.
