**Summary - Since this is my first ever DIY project with alot of trial and error including returning parts more then dozens of times and buying parts then realizing they were the wrong parts and etc.**

**This is also my first time trying a 1x12 System with this massive cassete (11-50t) but im just going to use a 11x36t 1x11 systemm. I wanted a “do it all bike” but really some things on this bike were too unnecessary for my riding style. Also with a 11-50t i just added unnecessary weight to the bike, I used ai to analyze if swapping to a 11-34/36t would save .75lbs or something along those lines (25.5lbs) of rotational weight which would mean much more then static.**

For my riding style this mtb groupset is too much.

**I used AI alot in this bike project and learning in general. Overall the build is perfect and I learned a new skill that would help me long term with building, fixing, maintaining my bike.**

a biketool kit from the bikehand brand on Amazon thats like 69 bucks with some additional tools from the Park tool brands is all you need - https://www.amazon.com/Bikehand-Bike-Bicycle-Repair-Tool/dp/B00CW911XW/ref=mp_s_a_1_6_sspa?crid=27IWDMD158VEU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.GPVzNyynOB65fq-qCez37sZu471nulm_8uzuD4pMMsYxnTQNHjCdzPcPMew00-bLcdMyu9gTl3GIo__MWCfvu3bZ78uWN0JVXTabWsdOPzUzo3MMJPtF7yYkUy6FCSOowk338UYX8lP0U-rb7_zWmCcvkbEcdSQPCM6I34kaqJK7aZP22FW0ofOmt3n0Q7kJm5gQSRt9HLDwLCyH-TNaVA.4dXAkrsyNA7JKoI381sawQWKHlbG8K3lxjOIkMm_wC4&dib_tag=se&keywords=bike+kit+tool&qid=1783007303&sprefix=bikekit+too%2Caps%2C226&sr=8-6-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9waG9uZV9zZWFyY2hfbXRm&psc=1
