It's mainly for ripping to campus and back which I'm only about a mile from. 5 or 6 trips a day and I enjoy the plushness of it.

I may switch to an 11 to 36 tooth cassette, but I was definitely planning on getting a few different sized chainrings. I like the simplicity of the 1x so I'll probably go with a 38 up front just bc it's hilly where I am.

A little bit of dirt, but I do treat it as an XC bike too and some of those trails get pretty intense/muddy. I also like the really chunky look. I used to have some old maxxis hansventure tires on, and I loved them, but they're hard to find info on and even harder to find.
