So this is my super cheap steel Forme Atlow. Had it for a few months and last month took it on the badger divide (running fixed 42/20). For a cheap complete it’s been insanely good fun and super reliable so far. Upgraded the wheelset straight away. Deathgrips. Schwalbe land cruiser 700x35 on both (cheap cheerful and good grip).

Yeah, for the most part was amazing. Climbing was fine in that gear fully loaded up to near 12%, and my friends were pushing their bikes at that gradient too. As @yoshy said, tarmac descents in that gear were not so fun. Did unclip and freewheel a couple times but that was sketchy as hell (even with front brake) haha
