Did anyone find that a Sram full mount UDH derailleur was very loose before torquing down? I'm new to this full mount setup so just curious if the frame is out of spec or something?

Yep mine was the same. Once you get it torqued and the thru-axle tightened it's all sweet.

Looks great!
What is the size of thunderburts? 2.35" or 2.25", or 2.1"? Also intetested in actual width and clearance on the frame.

Im thinking if i can fit 2.35" on 32mm rim into rear.

Mine should arrive soonish.



Mine are the 2.25", haven't measured them but as Eins said, there's still plenty of clearance front and rear.

I also got three. In the end did you ending up placing the red one on the upper?!

Yep mine also came with 3 bearings. I'd definitely recommend following the instruction video, black bearing goes at the top with the split ring sitting between it and the frame.

It looks great!
tell how did the initial tests go?
If you don't mind sharing, what are your height and inseam, and at what height do you have your saddle set?

First ride this morning was great! No idea what my inseam is sorry but I'm 188cm and saddle height is 940mm from the top of the pedal to the top of the saddle.

Finished my build this morning. Other than the wrong headset instructions from Jack to begin with, everything else went together perfectly. First ride tomorrow morning!

Any chance you could share that video somehow? :D

I'll try and attach the video below, let me know if this works.

I've run into a problem with my build, can't tell if I've missed something or if it's a problem with the frame. The lower headset bearing appears to be recessed too far into the frame. When the system is tensioned, the frame and the top of the fork are rubbing on each other, wearing away paint.

I've used the 8mm bearing, as per Jack's instruction video. Am waiting to hear back from him with any suggestions.

I don't suppose anyone else has run into a similar issue and has a fix?



Quick update; turns out the instructions that Jack gave me were wrong. The video he sent said the bearing with the red seal was installed at the top of the frame, and black seal was installed at the bottom.

After informing him that this didn't work, he's sent me a new instruction video the has the red seal at the bottom and black seal at the top...go figure.

Should have time to rebuild it on Friday and will provide another update.

I spot a Rpantahi cockpit – nice! Looks like they changed the finish to be more in line with other "matte black" colors for parts. They had a more grey-ish finish before, more like the ultegra-Crankset gray.

Well spotted! I actually picked this one up off Marketplace, unfortunately it is for an oversized Giant OD2 steerer so that will hold up the build unless the seller can track down the shim it came with. I do agree the finish on the bars is really nice, I'm hoping I'll still be able to use them.

And I saw a CSC wheelset. Could you tell some datas? I`m looking for CSC as well, but don´t find the right wheels until now.

I'll try and link the wheels I ordered below. They are 50mm deep, 32mm internal and 41mm internal width. Initial impressions are really good given they cost me ~$400 USD shipped. I've read a few reports of the bearings or ratchets in the hub breaking, only time will tell I guess.

Started to build this afternoon. Should hopefully be finished over the weekend.

My frame arrived today. Shipping took 5 days via UPS to Australia. Impressed with the quality of packaging - I've had some parcels from China arrive pretty beat-up but this one looks schmick. Will post some photos of the frame tomorrow.

I received a video of my updated fork overnight with no rivets so hopefully should be shipping out this week.

Without any stickers, its looks boing. So i made some graphics. Gonna call it WYDE.

If someone in Europe is interested in this frame, i'm willing to sell it. Immediate availability.
I just put in an order for another bike and probably won't build up the FM376 anymore.


How much to ship a matching sticker sheet to Australia? I love the Wyde branding!

Jack has agreed to paint a replacement fork for me with no rivets. Should be an extra 5 days of waiting.

I also got a video of my completed frame last night. Generally it looks really good. They also missed removal of the fork rivets which Jack originally said he could do for me. I've just replied asking what would be the wait time if he was to re-do the fork without the rivets.

@anqry
Thanks. Yes, you were right  ;D
Did you order a S size frame?

Nup, I ordered a Size L on 19 August.

Jack sent me a message last night suggesting that as my order is now considered a 'pre-order' he will process a $40USD refund to me. Not exactly sure where that puts me on shipping timeframes, hopefully not too much longer.
