    Re: Zen Carbon Wheels Xiamen
    Do you know (or maybe Zen can answer here) the thickness and cross-sectional profile of the 4.0mm spokes? I'm guessing at the round ends they are Ø2.2mm so similar stiffness to the other "heavy" carbon spokes.

    Good day

    Re: Mondince FM366 aero gravel bike with 57mm of tire clearance I am also interested in this frame (I like the higher stack) but I'm thinking of holding off for a little while until I see some builds appearing. Since I couldn't find any pictures of full builds yet I asked Mondince via whatsapp and they sent me these.
    No idea what's up with the TT bars on a gravel bike though.
