What are some models you know that fits this+ are under 11kg in weight,preferable under 10kg.
have good quality components (at least Tiagra/Deore equivalent ) comes with decent wheels (not super-duper pro stuff ,but just decent enough)
+ are able to take 40mm tyre + still have some clearance, Do not want suspension as It's just more clunky stuff that I have to carry around.

Basically a good component light-weight flat-bar gravel bike biggrin

Do not have a set budget. ( Ok max 700 for Used-Mint one,could just as well spend 200 if I can biggrin ) Want to see if I can find something decent used-but not sure which models are like that and has ability to take the larger tyres, Do not want a large clunky MTB frame.

Something like this Cube SL Road looks pretty gut (seems like can take larger tyres+comes with decent components)

What other models would you recommend?

Thanks for suggestions, a Boardman Hybrid pro in mint condition appeared (maybe done 150miles) for £265 today.
Carbon Fork/seatpost, alloy frame ,sram rival 2x10 gears, decent hydraulics.
Of course I got it.
9.5kg , in my frame size, seems like it will easily take ~40mm tyres. Can't really ask for better.
btw anyone knows whats the largest tyres that bike would take?
