1 month review

It's been almost a month since I have the bike. I have more than 100 km on it, most of them on gravel and less than 25% on the road.
I'm pretty satisfied with it, but again I can only compare to a Walmart bike. The front breaks were making  some noise, so yesterday I was able to get to the bike shop , and they change the pads from the front & back brakes. There was no need for the back to be changed but they did it , for free anyway, so i didn't argued with them. I felt some problems when I was changing the gears, sometimes was a delay and some times it will change 2 speeds at once. So the technician made some adjustments to them, and he told me that it was jumping over a gear sometimes. So that is fixed too, below the new brake pads and a bell that i bought for the bike.


 The black color attracts the dust pretty bad.
So about the bike, the ride is ok, but again I'm not a road biker, I like go more gravel grinding. Because of that I'm more than happy for the tire choice.
The longest ride that I took was about 25 km so far, no real discomfort due to the nebula saddle but I have padded shorts. On the road the bike is decently fast and off road it can do the job.
I decided to participate on a gravel grinding race on the 15 it is called



 As I promised soon I will upload pictures with the package that I've got from Trek .
