Nice that it came with DT 350 hubs (although DT 370 hubs are now good). Most stock bikes up to a crazy amount of money wheels are the short coming - and they’re one of the most expensive upgrades.
Did you burn out the stock tires or replace them with life left? I have lots of tires I don’t love that I can ride. But some tires just have to go and that can make a huge difference talking about value on budget bikes especially.
Hoping to review a bunch of $1200-2000(ish) hardtails this year and the range of stock rubber is a bit astounding.
