I bought this Ozark Trail g1 explorer to use as commuter after hearing so much good about it. I installed my favorite saddle (Brooks B-17), now I am honestly enjoying this bike more than my expensive carbon bikes with electronic shifting and carbon wheels. I have snacks in my trunk bag and plenty of water. Now I even ride it for fun in the weekends doing 70 miles a ride. More expensive doesn't more fun…..
Side note: I was lucky and got a well built bike, I didn't need to do anything but swap the saddle… I did build multiple bikes from the frame up so I wasn't worried about the build up of the bike.
