It looks exactly the same as the 32" frame from TanTan that was unveiled yesterday....

I like it! I am thinking of building a 32er for my local gravel roads, and to try out for Bikepacking. Fundamental question I have is weather a MTB hardtail geometry, or a gravel bike geometry would work better.   I don't know enough about 32er handling considering I haven't ridden one yet. 

There still isn't all that much data from riders regarding what geometries work best for different riding conditions.

The Tideace 32er hardtail MTB frame is already on my short list.  Primarily because it uses a Superboost 157mm rear hub, and I have numerous 157mm rear hubs laying around as spares for my existing Superboost 29er hardtail build.

MTB boost axle spacing? Is this standard for 32er? I've seen some models with road boost 110x12 and 148x12

Max chainring of only 42T is a little disappointing

Consider that the rollout of a 32er wheel is 8% to 10% more due to the larger wheel. This makes a 42 chain ring equivalent to about a 46, depending on the tire you select.

When you design the frame to fit 2.4" tires, this drives a wider BB shell (T47 – 85.5 mm). This in turn pushes out the chainline.  A wider chainline works better with a Boost/148 rear hub.

sure, I get it. But this one has MTB boost axle 15x110 for the front hub rather than road 12x110 boost I've seen used on some of the western brands.
32" mtbs will have super boost and gravel bikes will upsize to boost which probably means we will need boost cranksets as well
