I'm after a new gravel/adventure frame.
Kona Libre ticks all my boxes and more but is tough to get hold of.
What else is similar?
What drew me to the Kona:
- 650/700 compatible tones of clearance.
- mounts, mounts and more mounts
- nice geometry
- carbon option (can't decide if I *do* want to spend that much however)
I had one for all of 48 hours (sizing was out and had to send it back). Really nice bike in carbon, very light indeed and unnerving that the downtube walls are so thin you can actually squeeze them between your fingers like a coke can 😳. But had it fitted me I’d still have it, a really nice bike.
There's a Kona Libre CR in Blue size 54 at the Kona Bike Shop in Chertsey

Have you thought about some nice steel with similar geo? At a guess: Fairlight Secan? Genesis Fugio?
