I just found out that they have the G029. It's the same as the G028 but without the storage box and without mounting screws.

Aren't these marginally different frame moulds though in chainstay and subsequent wheelbase length? 435 Vs 430 on the 376. Unless it's just how they've been measured.

Spcycle G028, G029, Mondince FM346 and Meinier GRL15 are basically the same frame (with small tweaks in the seatpost for the Meinier).

Mondince FM376 is a different frame (it has different shape in the headtube, different position of the storage box, it has an indentation in the downtube, etc). But the geometry is almost identical, except for the chainstays length (430 vs 435).

What kind of rubber cap do you use to cover of the seatpost? Is it custom made?

The rubber seat post gasket is stock. Came with it.

I like the groupset well enough. I have Force axs on my road bike. Not too proud to have Apex mechanical on a bike I'll ride in the mud

Got my frame built up yesterday. Most of the components are carried over from my previous frame. Needed a different bar/stem combo, and cranks (my old cranks were road narrow). I'm waiting for bar tape to show up as well. I had a hard time finding a pink tape that wasn't neon pink.

The frame was $930 shipped to Nebraska. I ordered on 10-2 and was quoted 25 days. I received it 10-22.

I've only been able to ride it on the trainer, as I'm not cleared to ride outside by my surgeon. Hopefully I'll get to take it on its maiden voyage next week!!

My frame is ready to be shipped, might be the first XL here. Took about 2 months from ordering. I was between just clear coat on carbon or the dark green. Turned out pretty good it should look almost black in darker light.
I might go with silver udh mount to match the logo.

Only one top tube bolt?

looks really nice and thanks for taking a dark green one

Now i know what a gravel would look like in my road bike color. What Pantone did you choose?
