Mondice top tube is 549mm, Open Wi.De 528mm. Seat tube angle both 73.5, Reach is identical with 374mm. How does this work?  ???
If you compare both frames at bikeinsights you get to see that they are more or less identical. The top tube length is imaginary. see both attachments

Do you know if the fork offset/trail numbers are correct on these? It would still mean that they'd ride very differently in reality.

Unfortunately i cant help you here. i just have the numbers from the drawing from the first post of this thread and the numbers on the website of bikeinsights. so we have to wait for an official announcement from mondince.
but yes, from the numbers we have, the open wi.de 2.0 and the fm356 should handle different.

Thank you for the info! It would be cool if you post here the pics of the frameset when you get it. What was the price for the frameset? When you will get it approximately? Sorry for too many questions😁
For sure, it should be here in 30 days + - (we all know how that goes). Ill def post pics. The price is USD625 for FM356, which includes frame, fork, seatpost, axles, headset, and bag. Shipping is 180 with prepaid tariffs and 80 for custom paint.

Forks have 50mm offset/rake. Jack also told me first size medium frames should be out of the moulds before 5th june.   :D
Let's see, looking forward to some real pictures.

Does anybody know, will this frame be sold on AliExpress?

Jack from Mondince just told me that this frame would not be sold on AliExpress because this model was created by Mondince. So buying it directly from Mondince is the only option for this moment.

Jack just sent me the latest geo for this frame. See below.

A bit high and short it seems. Perhaps a consequence of the greater bb drop compared to my 21 Revolt size L.

I am going to struggle to make it fit. I don't think I will get the bars low enough.
My '21 Revolt has;
Reach 391mm
Stack 601 mm

The FM356 in L has;
Reach 386
Stack 615

My Revolt has a 130mm -17 stem
This will be a bit high :( I can make the reach work as it is only 5mm.
Can't see an integrated bar coming in a-17°.

Im on the other side. I will be replacing my 2022 Revolt Advanced ML with a L FM356. On my Revolt I have to use a shorter stem (70mm) and have two spacers under the stem. It's almost like the FM356 is made for my fit. I just need to see a complete build in the flesh before I make my purchase

Yeah I like the tyre clearance, would just like to be able to achieve a reasonable saddle-bar drop.
I am 57yo and not super flexible or low. I see plenty struggling to get a decent bar height they are happy with.
