Ah thanks.

In previous messages you mention going for the fm316 fork with your fn336 frame
How does the fm316 make the ride more agressive ?

I finished building my bike a while back. I took it for a 370 km test ride, and to my surprise, everything works exactly as it should. The AI ​​bike fitting actually worked

The final weight of the complete bike, including pedals, is 8.8 kg.

Here are the specs:
SRAM Force E1 shifters/brake levers and brakes
SRAM Rival derailleur, 10-46T cassette, and chain

Carbon crankset with power meter and 46T chainring

Wheels: generic Chinese carbon rims (45mm deep, 32mm internal width)

Tires: Tufo Thundero – 48mm front (actual width 52mm) and 44mm rear (actual width 48mm)

Ryet full-carbon saddle

P.S.
The storage compartment cover fell off during the first ride. I'm using a strap to hold it in place now.

What did you use for the "AI bike fitting"?

I'm stay with the FM336. I have 48mm rear and 52mm front tires. My frame will have  FM316 fork, which will further increase its aggressiveness and bring the handling closer to the Trek Checkmate SLR. The only difference will be a mere 1mm fork offset (49 vs. 50), but it still has the option of an additional 45mm offset.

Did you just asked Jack to have the 316 fork?

The fork offset will reduce the trail right? Is it the only difference?

What's the "option of an additional 45mm offset" ?

Quick question for the Mondice FM296 owners, how much stem spacer is shipped with the bike?
I like the look of the bike but the 1.38 for size 520 seems a bit to racy for me and I wonder how much stack I can add to the bike to have a more upright position
