Tideace FM-CR060 New Mold Gravel Frame 700*47C

[pearl]

This frame has peaked my interest, any other users running this? Does the price shipped include bars? I'd probably run an external handlebar setup and run through the headset...

[pearl]

Just want to come back and reply that Eddy has been very responsive to emails! Trying to research what I can do to run a regular bar/stem and use one of those FSA headsets to have the cables go through the frame...

I have the frame and I am using it as my winter bike, reason for this this frame has one big flaw in my opinion as already been stated: the clearance between the chainstays and the chainring/chainring bolts is to tight. I have tried 3 different cranks (sram red 22, sram axs red, rotor) but they all touched the frame, even in different configurations like double chainring (35t/48t), single chainring (46t). Sometimes it was the bolts, sometimes the chainring.   Since I wanted to use this frame with my power meter as a gravel race bike, I decided to go for a different frame (Yishun G071) rather then having drivetrain issues and potentially abusing expensive cranks.
Overall the quality of the frame is good, but you will need a crank with wide chainline (47.5mm).

I'm curious did you try different offset rings?

[jfcb]

Yes I did try with spacers, but that eliminates immediately the option for 2x chainrings and the chainline becomes off with 1x chainring in lowest gear with frequent chain drops.So I went for a different frame instead of putting time in different options.

Thanks for sharing from Kean.

Eddy, do you have any photos of this frame with bigger than 45-47mm tires on it? I'm just making sure this will actually clear the tire size that your sheet says it will.

The mold FM-CR060 mold gravel frame being udpated.

The frame now it is UDH rear hanger ,with T47 bottom bracket.

And it is 880g for 52cm in raw, and with storage on downtube.

Any interesting, let us know.

What is your idea for the frame updated?

Thanks

Hi Eddie,

Great to hear you modernized the frame. Did you also adapted the issue with the limited chainring/chainstay clearance?
Other than that, I'm very pleased with the frameset.

[Eddy-haideli]

Thank you for your feedback!

Yes, we have updated the chainring/chainstay clearance in this version, so it allows for larger chainring options without interference.

I'm glad to hear you're pleased with the frameset.

By the way, you also can share our picture or videos to our email account, we will have the engineer to solve your problem.

Thanks

This modified frame seems to be very interesting. But is this the actual geometry?
The head angle seems to be very steep. And it say max tire size ist 47C.
