Is 750d the future of gravel biking? Or are the recently spotted prototype Moots/WTB wheels just a marketing gimmick?

Close up on a Moots CRD gravel bike

A new Moots gravel bike has been spotted at SBT GRVL in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. In a video posted by Ben Delaney on his The Ride YouTube channel, eagle-eyed Delaney spotted the American bike manufacturer renowned for their titanium frames had their newly released titanium Routt CRD gravel bike equipped with custom 750d WTB wheel rims and 40mm Nano Raptor tires. The new prototype Moots called the Routt CR-DD.

Judging by the comments on the YouTube post, the new wheel size has certainly divided opinion, but will the 750d size ever make it to production? Possibly this passion project between Moots and WTB is just some cunning marketing designed to boost attention for the brands in advance of this weekend's MADE Bike Show.
