Everyone will have a different opinion - I don't have much interest in putting flat bars on this (or any) gravel bike. I put in a lot of tarmac miles, and part of the joy of gravel bikes (to me) is that they very much aren't mountain bikes. But yeah, I hear you on versatility, and its valid. I don't travel with this bike - I travel with a mountain bike.
That said, I'm building a gravel bike up for my partner, and she wants flat bars.
