Update: 630+ miles, the bike is doing great. I have done a century on it from san jose to San Francisco and back. The rear tire had a flat a few days ago, it was hard to get the wheel out of the frame because of the backwards derailuer(not a good design). The brakes are still working good, it shifts properly. Besides that i like the bike pretty well, i would probably change a few things like the twist shifter for a trigger shifter, and skinnier tires like 1-1.5 inch with less rolling resistance. Till next time.
