Mondince FM366 aero gravel bike with 57mm of tire clearance

[RiP]

Correct me if I’m wrong but it does have an AERO SEATPOST right?

Not the round 27.2
So in that regard it is different from SPCYCLE’s 57mm tire clearance Gravel frame, right?

Also the « wind eye » thingy but anyway at 1050g claimed and with edgy aero features, it might be the sexiest 57mm tire clearance Gravel frame out there

From the product specs on their product webpage:

Seatpost: D Type, 7*7mm/7*9mm Compatiable

So, yeah, the seatpost is supposed to have an aero, D shape profile and it's not a round 27,2mm regular one.



This frame looks good, but those Reach numbers are really awkward...

I just heard from Jack that they are changing the geo. He is going to send me the chart as soon as it is available and I’ll post.

a couple notes:
1. needs updated geo chart lmao
2. needs specs for chainring clearance with 47.5mm chainlines
3. all of the photos look like they have no bottle cage/rack bolts drilled - they absolutely need some top tube bag bolts here

It seems like they are open to suggestions, what is the perfect geometry?

what plausible measurements they have there are fine (bb drop etc) but the reach numbers are just physically impossible for the bike sizing, the numbers on the the geo chart are simply incorrect

[wintermute]

I'd want something in the range of
XS 470
Small 480
Medium 490
Large 500

Etc.

That probably allows more casual riders to size down and still keep sufficient stack, for some people to run shorter stems if they prefer that handling, and for people to get high and forwards if they want to race it.

I have ordered a Cima GR but I'm waiting for these three new cheap 57mm frames to mature to order a new frame for my girlfriend's bike. The SPCycle had the better geometry of the two out before this

[adrpos]

just try to get as close to an enve mog geometry as possible while still allowing for 50t chainring clearance with reasonable chainline

Apparently this is the new geometry. 

[Igital96]

Apparently this is the new geometry. 

The reach now is very similar to the FM336 so I think this is an upgrade definitely.

[Samuel BMR]

Much better!

And what are the HANDLEBARS options with Mondice?
You can’t find ANY on their website

[Ghandy]

Apparently this is the new geometry. 

What do you guys think about the 70 degrees headtube angle? Would have liked it maybe a bit steeper, or do you think the 1 degree doesn’t matter that much?

[RiP]

Apparently this is the new geometry. 

This is more like it!

But this begs the question, since the frame already had a mold and there are pictures of a finished one, does this mean that it was just the old geo chart that was wrong and the frame had the geo figures from this new chart, or does that frame feature the strange geo from the 1st chart???

the old geo chart plainly didn't reflect reality, the top tube and seatpost angle numbers just obviously didn't add up to produce the listed reach

Might be, I was told regardless that they'll have to make a new mould. Seems like they also have an integrated handlebar with rise.

This is their normal integrated gravel cockpit. Hopefully getting some info later about the other one.

184cm with an ~86cm inseam.
I generally take a L size frame. This would be an M I think.
