Had the wheels built for me, hoping they are strong enough....they seem strong. Guess we will find out this week.

I use the ISM MTB saddle on my steed. I posted up a pic on a ****** page and copped flack off a few people re how it looked. I built my bike to be ridden, not to look good while sitting on the back of my truck, and I find the saddle comfortable enough to ride around on it all day. If it works, it works. Ride it and love it

Great looking Bike! I've been intrigued by the 1x and thinking I may need that on my next bike.

32x11 is good for 22 mph on flat ground with me giving it all the business I can muster - so I have no complaints about lack of top end -- and 32-50 will climb anything I want to climb

I wasn't sure until I rode a bike with1x...it is easier and I really liked it, so I added to this new bike when I had it built. I'm no where near the speed demon or racer that some of you guys are her, but on my limited mtb experience, it goes as fast as I want, digs in in the slow gears and climbs well...
