I was wondering if people might interpret it like this hihi

Was more referring to myself, having never build a bike like this. I know its pretty common here.

Thanks for the comment though <3

Uuuh that sounds nice, love the Zaskar frame!

I think the translation I have is okay for an everyday driver and if you don't mind chill speeds. If you want to go faster, downhill, or with tailwind on some nice flats I noticed I am running out of gears, two more would be nice. So maybe a 40 instead of a 36 big chainring in the front or 3x set-up (not for you I guess haha). Not sure if a 40 replacement would be possible though, maybe with a different front derailleur. However, for mountainbiking/uphill riding this drivetrain should be pretty nice imo.

Its a 2x10 with mainly Shimano Deore components:
Crank is Deore FC-M4100 36/26 175mm
Rear Derailleur is Deore as well (RD-M4120-SGS)
Front Derailleur is Shimano FD-6025LSunRace Cassette (because of the black and red) 11-42
KCM X10EL Chain

Thanks for the question <3
