Garmin mount seems to hop around between photos too.
1x with that small chainring is not going to keep up with any records but for just a bit of fun, prob quite low maintenance.
edit; I notice
luizphillipem said “shifters” plural. Well if you put a front shifter on that, you also need a cable, derailleur and new double front crankset. That’s not going to be under $300 total.
on the end I gave it a try, just did change the right shifter (rear), the handle bar, cables and I few adjustments (chain, saddle height, flip the steam..). I was able to be on $300 right on. I'll try for a couple months and see how it goes.. probably change the ring in the future as well.. the frame itself is not short or big I believe (a 52 for me seems right for my size 5'7"). On the end my main goal is just to have a light and pleasure bike for commute and if I progress let's see the future! Thanks guys for all the valuable info, I will post pictures after the changes when I get home.
