Built this up as I am riding more gravel type riding along the lines of rail trails etc. I tried the gravel bike thing and kept thinking as the tyres were getting wider and then suspension for gravel bike why not just use a mountain bike with "Skinny" tyres. The frame came up at a stupid price and this is the result.

Only a small up and down the street around the block ride - Feels little direct in the steering compared to what I am used to. Will see how it goes for now but may go to a longer stem.
