    Great video! Seeing my bike workshop at 5:30 was cool. Glad I got to be involved for part of the project.

    Nice looking bike, I'd be tempted to put rx400 derailleur at back and utilise the 10 speed. But nice looking bike. 💯

      Thanks man. I've been thinking that same thing. I'll probably upgrade that in the spring.

      @@BikeWithJohn - I think a 1x10 would suite someone who's accustomed to a single speed tbh.
      Like an Advent 1x 10 or depending on the levers you got - if they are 10 speed.

    nice bike, will you make a future video about that fork?, I want to buy one but my trust on carbor fiber is not good. I use my bike for commuting, still, the roads here are not the best.

    Nice bike revive. The A2C of that fork looks tall. Was it designed for MTB?

    After buying a gravel bike, I concluded that a regular mountain bike, even a retro one, is simply better if you truly want to ride off-road. However, if you mainly ride on pavement, a road bike is much better. Gravel is a rotten compromise.
