I used headset bearing and cover provided by Mondince with the frame and handlebar. Plastic parts are FSA ACR copy from the looks of it. The top bearing is 8mm tall and the gap is like 0,5mm or smaller.

I got the HB266 handlebar with my gravel frame from mondince. I have two points to add, the drop is actually 110, they have incorrect dimension measured on drawing - that plus for me. Second more pressing issue/niggle is that the top part of stem is not perpendicular to the fork steerer, so you cannot add any more spacers on top of it, before you commit to the cut. The preload screw, then sit not fully flush with top cap. It´s at a slight angle.
Besides these two things, the bars feel really nice and also the cable routing was possible to do without any tools.

I managed to build it up today,
still not even ride ready, but at least it looks finished. Don´t mind the tyres, i am waiting for a bit bigger thunderos, but for now it´s what I have on hand.

The build went pretty okay, I managed to build it without cable routing tool. It was a bit pain around few places, mainly handlebars, but i managed.
BB is not alu shell, both sides are bonded independently. The water bottle on screws on the storage cover are unusable for bottle holder if you also have a holder on seat tube. The storage space is extremely small and with the cables in foam running on bottom, there´s really not a lot of room. I will have to source bag from thinner fabric so hopefully, I will fit there at least multitool, plug kit, pump and tyre levers.

The wuzei chainring is 44t with 4.2 offset screwed on road dub cranks. Sadly my 40t rival chainring does not fit - too big offset on road cranks, so i will need to find something different because the wuzei one is extremely noisy. The chainring has around 2mm space around chainstay.

I also received my frame today. I will try to post proper photos after building the bike. The frame and everything else looks great - I got frame (M), both types of fork, seatpost and integrated handlebar they supply with their FM126 road frame.

This is a second frame I received from Mondince, it´s actually a replacement/warranty frame. I initially ordered and got an FM336 frame - but it was from the batch of frames with glue left inside and it was impossible to route the shifter cable through chainstays. When I spoke about this issue with Jack, he was really straightforward with it - either I manage to clear up the glue and they will send me back around 150€ as reimbursement or a new frame, if it won´t work. I managed to clear up the brake line glue, but the drive side was narrower without proper access - and it was out of my budget to get an wireless groupset, so Jack agreed to send me a new frame.

FM336 order was in march, i got it in may and by the time this all came to be, the new frames 346 a 356 were supposed to be shipping in about two weeks +-.
So I spoke to Jack, whether it would be possible to send me another frame, which he was okay with - thankfully, I just needed to pay for the fork and difference between the frame prices, since FM356 was a bit more expensive. That was at the end of may, and supposedly the molds were supposed to be ready around middle of june. Well it took quite a bit longer, but finally it´s here.

All in all, except the provided time lines, everything else was really good. Jack usually replied within an hour and answered all my questions. Reading a bit on this forum about different experiences with manufacturers, I think from the budget brands Mondince has the best customer service and actually replies and tries to help you solve if any problems arise after they sell you their frame.

Also both frames had properly faced brake mounts and BBs, also the headset cups are nicely reamed and faced. The magnetic cover on fm336 opens and snaps in place much easier, but the mechanic lock on fm356 feels more secure - so it´s a toss.

I included the handlebar drawings, the weight is 350g for 380/90. It looks like fsa acr style headset, also in the drawing the drop dimension is measured wrong, it actually is 110 instead of 120, which i prefer.

Measured dimension between chainstays is 73mm - so 61mm tyre with 6mm space on both sides is according to spec. As for the fork the dimension is 73mm also.

Nice catch. Geometry is very similar to the 54cm SuperX. Wondering why you don’t think it makes sense for larger tires?

personal thing i do not like is the seattube length combined with 57mm tires and BB drop will be quite tall standover height, i would appreciete it being at least 15-20mm lower.
The bigger issue is toe overlap, it´s nice that the fork will fit bigger tires, but it´s on the limit of acceptable for me. Compared to my more road oriented seaboard with 40mm, it´s the same clearance. It´s not terrible but i regularly catch my toe on the wheel when riding singletrack or anything slower and more technical. BB height is just another thing copied and not thought about, 70mm drop works fine with 40mm tires, but 57mm? that´s just weird, moving the centre of gravity up, not that it won´t work, it just seems not thought through to me

I did a 10km ride just to test ride it and on pavement because I am waiting for my 45mm tire to arrive. It felt very good. Planted and solid. I come from a Bianchi Zolder Pro (cyclo-cross bike) and it's completely different. The other one was twitchy and had a very reactive ride. This is the opposite. Longer, lower, predictable and more comfortable. Still finding my preferred stack height so I can cut the steering tube again.

How did the build went? Was everything okay? Were the brake mounts and bb faced? How does the storage space look like? Is it separate space or just a hole in downtube?

i do not really know about color effects, but at minimal they can add pearl to the color and they also have transparent red and blue options
from the colors, they send me their pantone sample book to choose from

Hi Acador
Would you like to share (here or by PM tomme) what you paid including shipping and tax handling?

I paid 670€ total. 540 was frame + stem + handlebars and 130 shipping with tax included.

One thing to say, last week Jack wrote to me, that there´s some problem with incorrect crown sizing on the fork and asked, if I am okay with swapping the fork for the FM316 395AC fork with the flip chip. Which i was okay with as it´s not really changing things in the geo for me.
