I know this sounds harsh, but I strongly dislike this bike, and the other State models that share this frame. Why? Because they didn't include a left shifter boss. I have nothing against 1x setups or selling this bike with a 1x drivetrain, but how many dollars did they save leaving off the second boss and a nice cap to cover it? Not many, I'd guess, so it's inexcusable to me that they've made it harder and less appealing for anyone who wants to modify this bike from its stock configuration in the future to do so.
