Did you build them yourself? I haven't made it down that avenue yet, but I'd love to. I started building a diy truing stand a while back. Now might be the time.

It is a very gratifying experience if you try.
Novatec 711/712 are very light, good and cheap.
Light bicycle can provide you very light rims. Even carbon aero spokes(maybe harder to start with than Pillar or CX-Rays).
So you can end at about 1kg for a wheelset.

I tried this one for when I'm travelling.

But comparing with my digital wrench: 4Nm was in fact 7Nm, 5 was 8 and 6 was 10.

This is what I use for all my builds: https://a.aliexpress.com/_Exa1nMn

I just tried installing a XX SL transmission derailleur on my frame and it's NO GO. ...

Did it come with a UDH mounted on it ?
Did you contact them about this issue ?

...I am well equipped with wine, purple, teal, grey and black  ...

Same here  went on a spending spree early summer, even adding the avocado to the list!

If you like the mount, measure the diameter of the circle where the screws are in the adapter. Between 19 and 22mm in general.

And you can then order a replacement one like these:

Or you can cut a little square of tape.
Stick it to the center of the adapter.
If still moving another one, etc...

Based on a recent comment here, I'm just trying these on a bike trip:

And they are great. They are summer socks, so very thin.
The shipping to Belgium was very fast.

Anyone found some good cycling socks on AliEx with a silicone band around the top to help keep them from sliding down?  Bonus points if they are available in size 39/40.

It is half a kilo lighter. This can help in that feeling, especially in the climbs.

Yes the wheels seems easier to accelerate, but mostly I feel them much stiffer.
I did an enduro week with my 936 and SID 120mm, not sure why but I guess I wouldn't go with the 110mm.
In my usual trails, which are XC like, I didn't feel I lost anything with the smaller fork.

I didn't investigate more, but the top of the head tube is vertically 25mm lower from the ground.
This may explain why I felt initially being more over the bike with the 909, than in the bike with the 936.

Are you able to know how this feeling is influenced by the differents components vs your 936, especially the wheels which are probably much more faster?
Can you spot the difference in the suspension behaviour between 909 and 936?

I ride(and love  ) these on my road bike https://www.lightbicycle.com/700C-tubeless-bicycle-wheels-32mm-wide-40mm-deep-clincher-for-cyclocross-road-and-gravel-bikes.html , with 28mm tires.
You could order them with aero carbon spokes, that would save 100-150g compared to CX-Ray's
