I bought a Cube gravel bike (the Nuroad C:62) about a year ago. Done about 3500km on it so far - mostly commuting and some 50-70km gravel rides I've been really impressed with the ride and the kit. Compares well to my Canyon Endurace which is my road bike, although maybe feels a bit less refined in some of the details. It cost a lot less though so value for money feels good.
Only let down has been the stock wheels - I keep getting loose spokes on the rear non drive side. A shame because the own brand hubs are pretty nice.

Good call. Will get my order in!

All the praise for the Burner is making me think I should finally get one. Any views in whether to get standard or large size? I'm 6'4" and usually take a medium size jersey if that makes any difference

Meant to say that I was fitting to a carbon gravel bike with chunky tubes. Would have been way easier on something like my old cross check with skinny steel tubes. I like the square look so glad they worked out for you.
Think the stay fitting approach was maybe moved across from their bluemels range. But as you say doesn't make as much sense the way they did it on the edge

Biggest thing was the shape. The SKS are very square and were super tricky to fit to my frame - the gap between the tyre and frame is roundish and so a square guard didn't really fit.
Also the mounting hardware. The SKS stay goes inside the mudguard and so takes up a lot of space. And fits with a little plastic clip and silicone spacer. The whole lot came unclipped in the woods and I lost the spacer. Then lost both clip and spacer from the other guard.
Pelagos guards have none of these issues, were hassle free to fit and cost me €55, so value is decent

I'm halfway through installing some Pelago 700x55 mudguards on my gravel bike. Much better than than the SKS Edge I had on there before. And decent value compared to some of the others I looked at.

Thanks v much. Looks like a great option

Love the bike. Slightly random question but what pedals are they?
Think stock wheels are always a weak point. I'll probably upgrade too, but hard to justify spending too much on what's mainly a commuter!
The own brand hubs are surprisingly good so might just get the rear wheel rebuilt
