"The Shimano TZ37 is a freewheel. It's a more basic type of rear gear system, often found on entry-level bikes."
Not a limiting factor for what I intend to do with the bike.
Well now that you know what to look for, you can sell the Trek 3700 and look for a better MTB to buy instead of sinking money into that
