The frame and forks compliment the bikes silver components nicely. Nice build

I found a 3700 a bit hard to ride for some reason maybe the frame was too big for me it was an xl I found perhaps what could be considered a fair buy on a 4300 just needs a few items I know sometimes that can be a lot worse sometimes it takes me a long time to get through from Bangla bike until I get it to the on the road sometimes I order parts etcetera sometimes I have to send the wheel out for trueing I'm not bad on just minor tweaks on straightening wheels just a tiny bit but when they're really it's better to send them out anyway I do like this project that I'm looking at it's a hard call because sometimes I can get a bike that's in good condition but not quite as much as of a bike some people criticized this like some people are for it you know people are always going to give mixed reviews it just depends if I think this bike is going to be enough for me me

Hey, what groupset did you use on this? It looks good

The derailleur is the original. I just touched it up with automotive grade paint and clear. And the crank set was in my parts bin. it was in pretty bad shape and the brand was unrecognizable but I did my thing and brought it back to life. Added the Origin8 chain guide and 32T chain ring to make it pop.

@@rossbennett1916 Keep the 3 X crankset otherwise you will regret it on steep climbs . The cassette in this video was only 11 - 34 T .

That bicycle has lost some of it's originality and versatility .

I gave it somewhat of a resto-mod. My starting point was less then ground zero but I took a lot of pleasure in this rebuild. I’ve pressure tested it locally and it shreds. Maybe a different fork down the line but other than that it’s golden.
