Hmm headset keeps some play with the tideace bar. Also want a longer stem so I can solve both problems.

Lexon is on the shortlist, really good price and loads of sizes. Does anyone have pictures of this 1mm gap at the headtube? Any negatives on lexon bars?

Picture of the gap with Lexon bars:

The Tideace bars and spacer set is crap - I had the same with tons of play. Got the Lexon bars instead and quality in much better and zero play.

I am happy with the Lexon.

I flipped the Tideace bars and just received the Lexon. The compression ring seem to fit quite nicely to the diameter of the head tube, but I have ~1mm gap between head tube and compression ring - is that the same for you?

Also, I would prefer to slam the stem, but seems like it need the spacer with two “hooks” to fit - does anybody imagine any issues in removing two of the dots from the compression ring so the handlebar can fit directly without spacer?

I am just in process of building my Noah, but have issues with massive headset play. I am using the Tideace c-ring and handlebars and suspect the c-ring to be out of tolerance or bad design with too little contact to the upper bearing.
I know a few others have had issues with the Tideace bars, but have anybody found a solution to using the original bars but with a better c-ring? Was looking at the Deda DCR headset, but measurements are not so easily found to verify compatibility.

I've seen a few people mention Peter, but I've never seen any way of contacting this mystical man.

Does anyone have any contact details?

Easiest with WhatsApp - his number is ‪+86 182 5080 8148‬

@patliean1

Can you elaborate further on your body measurements (inseam and height) in conjunction with and sizing of the frame, saddle height and cockpit setup.
I'm hesitant on either a 54 or 56 on this frame, and usually ride a ~56 on road/gravel with a saddle height of ~77-78cm

Care to share your thoughts?

I have roughly the same measurements as you and also spent quite some time considering if it should be a 54 or 56. At the end I chose 56.
Slamming the stem and running with a 90 or 100mm stem will give me roughly the same stack as on my road bike (Scott Foil) while having ~30mm shorter reach to add some comfort.

Thanks, both of you.

I am leaning towards the Tide Ace Noah, only have to settle on the size…

totally recommend BUCKLOS 4$ Gravel bar tape and totally wouldn't recommend ZRace brake hoses

Is that the Chameleon White? If yes, how is the color IRL - is it chameleon or mostly “just” white?

Cyclocross Frames, Wheels & Components / Frame with clearance for 46T chainring
« on: November 16, 2024, 12:27:59 AM »
Hi all,

I have been looking around this forum for a while and almost pressed the button for a frame a few times. Almost only, as I always seem to get stuck with a 46T chainring…

I am looking for something with a race-ish geometry. Doesn’t need to be full road like, but I don’t bikepack, very few centuries etc.so I prefer to go towards the sportier geometries.
Other requirements are quite simple: need to work with Shimano 1x11 with a 46T oval chainring, have a threaded BB, clearance for 40mm tires and preferably internal cable routing.
My last close call was the Ican Graro, but failed on the chainring :-[

Any input is most appreciated!
Andreas
