Somebody on reddit just finished their FM366 build. Looks quite good!

Indeed. The reach still looks short whereas the size chart indicates that it's not short at all
I don't get it

Got quoted $890 for the frame with paint & shipping to France. No handlebars.
Seemed a bit steep 🫤

Let the embarrassment begin!
Here's my video showing the Mondince FM366 frameset.
If you have any questions regarding the frameset, you can hit me up.

As for the video quality itself... Let's just say TraceVelo has nothing to worry about.

Hey everyone,
Just wanted to share a quick update—my frame arrived about two weeks ago! It's currently at the mechanic's shop. Honestly, I could have assembled most of it myself, but I lack the experience and the specific tools needed for cutting and bleeding hydraulic brake lines, so I left that part to the pro.

Details & Specs:
Paint: Gloss Raw Carbon (front) / White Pearl (rear)
Frame (Size S, w/ hardware): 1350g
Fork (w/ hardware): 540g
Seatpost (w/ clamp & rubber seal): 206g

QC issues found:
Overspray on the front face of the BB shell
A small ~1.7mm bump inside the headtube bearing seat

I'll share photos, a full specs list, and a final ride report once it's fully built!

Thanks for sharing! Looks quite nice, geo seems much better than initial pics.
Can you share a picture of the seatpost and WITH the seatpost if u have any? Thanks

You are in luck, Samuel.

The bike is still at the shop, but since the seatpost, clamp, downtube cover, and storage box are proprietary, I ordered spares—so I can take some photos for you!

Pics attached. The cradle at the top appears to be aluminum. Minimum insertion is 120 mm, and on the frame side, maximum insertion depth is roughly 200 mm (measured from memory).

I am also planning to check if I can fit two storage bags, as shown in the picture. Not for everyday rides, but for trips and races, an extra liter of integrated storage would be brilliant.

Thanks!

I'm looking to get a less race-geo gravel frame than my GV201/GR201 and this frame seems to check all of my boxes, my only complaint is the D shaped seatpost as I sometimes run an XPLR dropper. Are there currently any frames on the market with similar Stack/Reach numbers as the size small in this frame that also support a 27.2mm seatpost?
