I love my new bike. I just rode ~20mi around town, it felt like being a kid again. I could write a parts list, but who cares? Happy to share if you care. I felt the familiar urge to jump in some stranger's pool as I rode through the alley. Jumped over some shit. Laughed off a scraped elbow when I overcooked a loose berm.
If I had to find something "negative" about the bike, the chain dropped twice. I guess the chain line or tension needs some fine tuning? Also the rockbros saddle is mid, as expected for $20. Again, hard to complain lol

Love the yellow!
Is that a Jack the rack on there & how do ya like it? Been considering one… Hell ya to the kid style biking. And sweet bike!
Fun build! Looks built to rip.
If you’ve got a wide-narrow chainring, my guess would be you gotta pull that rear wheel back a little to tighten up the chain. I’ve heard people say it can be “too tight,” but my experience and tests show a tighter single-speed, without a tensioner, is faster.
