I'm looking to build up a kind of do-it-all-bike. Plan is to have two wheelsets, one for gravel and one with bigger road slicks at maybe 35-40mm for group rides.
I've got the lanky build with long arms and legs at 189 cm with 93 inseam, so the FM316 is pretty low stack, FM326 may be kind of weird with road tires because of the long fork. FM336 seems to me to have the best allroad geometry, but 47mm clearance is annoying. Maybe i should just get the gr201 but the long chainstays are also a compromise. Probably cant really do this build without compromises tho. Think i've got paralysis by analysis.

Have any of you tried the 316/326 with road tires?

I'm also waiting for my frame, but the information hasn't been updated for a while :/

[www]

I was in the same situation last week – updates were actually showing up faster on the Takesend website.

Here’s the link (it’s in Mandarin, so just use your browser’s translation): http://k5.takesend.com:8180/WebTrack

So yeah, build is finished, I’ll design stickers in a few days and I hope it’ll look awesome.
I previously asked about toptube bag and ordered rhinowalk. It fits perfectly with 4mm space to headset.

Very cool color scheme.
How did you specify it, did you send over a picture or asked what is possible?

At first, we had a discussion about what effects and colors they had available, then I created a design and specified what should be where, and in the end, they did that. I recall Jack saying that everything is possible with the design

Well, if anyone got an idea on how I can convince my wife about some extra bikes because of custom design, I am all open for suggestions 🤣

Are those the xplr rims? if so how do you like them

[Kamool]

Yes, but I've done only 40kms on that. So far so good, the rims look good, tire installation was really easy for both sets (I also have 31mm external for road tires), but I'll tell more after riding them for a bit.

I have a problem with my Mondince FM326, I'm leaving for a bike holiday in 2 weeks and was trying to remove my derailleur (SRAM Force XPLR) the screw was stuck and when I applied pressure a little part in the back of the frame snapped off. If I've had the time I would order a new frame but I am looking to repair it myself. I've included some photos do any of you guys think it is possible or should I just buy a new frame locally? And does someone have a good guide for repairing bits like thes or does it work the same as a cracked tube?

I think if I sand both pieces a little bit and then put some carbon fiber in between an glue them together with some carbon fiber around it should work.
Any tips/tricks and suggestions are welcome.
