This frame looks pretty good, not sure I'd change anything about it since it comes with UDH, EPS molding and a T47 bottom bracket! I've been hoping to get an aero frame!
Tideacebike
I like the look.
Just checking out the geometry. I'm 178cm but usually ride a small/51 in most brands.
The small has a very long reach ( for the size ). Around 20mm longer than my Cervelo S3 and Caledonia-5.
The Medium reach is only 3mm longer than the small but with a much greater stack.
Why is the small so long when the industry is generally moving more towards a shorter reach ?
Tideacebike
Seat post top and integration with the saddle clamp could be made a bit less chunky.
Otherwise it looks awesome
Tideacebike
Looking for a Quick spad on the flat to pair with my mountain setup. Tideacebike seems a good option 8)
Sweet frame. I have purchased from Tideace previously (GR201). This ticks all the boxes. Maybe lighten the next Gen up a bit.
Never tried Tideacebike but would be nice to try a first build.
Tideacebike.
Might want to drop the rear triangle like it's trending in the industry atm.
Tideacebike
Just wanted to say I really appreciate the custom paint colors shown at the bottom, always nice to see how a bike could look.
Tideacebike
UDH, EPS molding, T47 bottom bracket what else could we ask for?
Tideacebike
nice looking frame
Tideacebike
This thing looks fast! If I win I will finally be able to get to top 10 on some Strava (downhill) segments.
Looks like I need all that bike speed!
Let me design the next one! j/k.
I would love to see you all create a version of the 266 D SL with a miniaturized downtube, similar to the one on the 068, and a bayonet fork / deeper front end to minimize frontal area and enhance aerodynamics (perhaps a less deep version of what you offer on the TT912?). Offer it with an integrated bar stem and stems compatible with regular road bars.
Sort of like the Incolor Intropy SSR. Also, make sure to make the molds for the larger sizes too!
Very cool looking frame! Virtually the same dimensions as my current alloy frame that is 14 yrs old would love to build up this frame!!
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Beautiful frame
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Would not change a thing, but combined shipping with a tideace gravelbike (of course I'd pay for that bike) would be cool :)
Tideacebike
Didn't own a pure road bike and this one looks like a rocket ship!
Tideacebike
It's a wild looking design. I like that.
I do wonder how well it rides, though.
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Geo looks a little strange to have the same STA for all sizes.
Tideacebike
I like the wide availability of length and width of the integrated handlebars.
Tideacebike
My recommendations:
make the seat post reversible like the Ceepo Mamba-R, then allow clamping area for aerobars
Tideacebike
I'd change the seat tube design so it's not copying the Trek style, I'm always wary about those failing
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Looks very nice, would love to ride it in the next student racing season!
Tideacebike
dont have a carbon... could be different from my TI builds!
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
These frame suits me :D
Tideacebike
Bike looks fast.
Tideacebike
Nice looking bike!
Tideacebike
I wonder how a modern frame compares to me 16 year old carbon Pinarello 🤔
Tideacebike
Winning this would save me plenty of time doing house work in order to then have a plus back home with the missis. ;D ;D ;D
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
I've been meaning to build up a bike from a frame for a while now and will finally have the space to do so soon. This would be be a great start to the project. :)
Tideacebike
Awesome paintjob, and interesting concepts
Tideacebike
A bit chunky but looks aero.
Tideacebike
Can use a new 'racemonster' for next season :D
Tideacebike
Like the frame, I was also considering buying the factor replica before. The customer service was pretty good from Eddy. Unfortunately, I didn't win this frame, but a chance to win it is always cool!
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Have been thinking about trying an aero bike out and this looks like it'll do the job, very cool 8)
Thanks!
Having a good time with my Tideace GR201 frame.
Would like to try also a road frame.
Love my existing CR068. Wouldnt change anything about frame. Prefer if stuck bars had narrower option though!
Looking to get another to switch parts onto for one of my sons' bikes.
Tideacebike
Please update the headtube/headset cover to a non-proprietary version
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
These boxy tubes would fit perfectly small compartment for spares. It's 100% on my list for future frames.
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
just hope it's going to be less shady than the previous giveaway
Tideacebike
Looks good in glossy black.
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Good luck to all of you!

I believe you are referring to the unofficial and unapproved giveaway thread and not one the forum was involved with. I did see that thread but am not aware of anything "shady" that went on. I let it slide at the time but I guess I should've deleted it. In the future, only official forum approved giveaways will be allowed. I apologize if anything shady went down... I should've looked into it and moderated it a bit more.
If you want to provide more information please PM me, but since your statement is public, I also want to publicly state that we've done probably 10 giveaways in the past and there has never once been anything "shady" on the forum admin's end of things or, to my knowledge, the vendor's end either. Keeping the community's integrity at a high standard is a main priority for me.
Tideacebike
The frame looks really good.
Geometries are a bit too long and low for most sizes, but it's an aero frame after all..
I'd like the seat angle to be steeper in smaller sizes (XS,S)
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
This FM-CR068 would be a nice addition to my stable.
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
this frame looks so futuristic
Tideacebike
This! Would Perfectly fit my 65mm wheels!
Tideacebike

I dig the deep headtube

Am new to the forum, will work on getting to the 5 post requirement before the competition ends.

Tideacebike
Fingers crossed :D
Tideacebike
Not entering for myself but on behalf of my daughters :)
Thanks for creating the opportunity and putting in the effort!
Tideacebike
This is super!
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
It looks like it goes brrrrrrrrrm.
Tideacebike
I'd be stoked to try this frame as my velobuild is about to break :D
Hmmmm...nice Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Cool looking bike! Checks all my boxes, except maybe for some internal storage so that I can do away with my saddle bag.
Tideacebike
Good carbon frame manufacturer.
Tideacebike
Awesome!
Tideacebike
I'd really like integrated storage boxes to become the norm on all carbon bikes.
Looks really cool. I'd paint it black with multi-color metallic flakes and make black reflective logo stickers. Subtle, but flashy in the right light.
Tideacebike
Been thinking of building up a road bike specifically for tt's quick riding with 1x. This looks like nit fits the bill nicely!
Tideacebike
All in to build it and document it in a video!
Tideacebike ;)
Tideacebike
happy owner of a tideace noah here (gravel bike)
would love to win this aero monster for the road!
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
That frame looks good. Should make for a great build.
Tideacebike
Is Tideace comparable to Long Teng? currently have a long teng frame on order :)
Tideacebike
AERO
Tideacebike
Would love to try building a super fast electronic shifting bike!
Tideacebike
Maybe time to go aero
Tideacebike
Well, you only live once - hopefully i have enough posts, otherwise I have to farm some, till the deadline finishes :p
Tideacebike
very nice frame
Tideacebike
Looks agressive and aero
Tideacebike
Imagine a limited-edition paint job every Chinese New Year, each one showcasing the zodiac animal of the year in a bold, sporty, yet elegant design. A dragon, a tiger, a rabbit — every frame would become a statement piece. This would not only make the FM-CR068 stand out but also turn it into a collector's dream, something riders worldwide would look forward to each year!
Tideacebike
Looks nice. Geometry seems aggressive and fast :).
Tideacebike
It will be a nice frame to build the new road bike of my wife ;)
Tideacebike
Let's try out my nonexistent luck. Hahaha.
Tideacebike
Few consideration i'm thinking, integrated bearing cover/stem (something that looks organic, like Scott foil) , thicker fork, maybe add some kind of compliance mechanism for the seatpost?
Tideacebike
Oops, realised I didn't have an avatar when I posted the last message.
Tideacebike
would love to have an aero bike ;D
Tideacebike
Tideacebike - expresses more than a thousand words.
Tideacebike
Looks awesome!
Tideacebike
So cool!!
Tideacebike

Frame looks awesome in gloss carbon, best of luck to all!
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
With UDH, T47, replaceable+removable(for 1x) FD hanger, custom paint option there's a lot to like.
Looks like there's paint on the BB interface. Isn't that critical BB alignment wise with T47 but the paint might chip off after some cup/bearing swaps so that's a suggestion for the future.
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Nice to see the giveaways come back! Looks like there more entries these days.
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
BB with T47 seems to be real good.
Tideacebike
Very aggressive and glamour frame!
Never had road bike, only mtb and gravel; should this be the first?
Tideacebike
I've been wanting to do an electronic drivetrain full chiner build for a little while now, but I sold my eR9 since rising prices and other issues made it seem like it wasn't happening any time soon. Watch me win this and regret selling my eR9, ugh...
Tideacebike
Really like the paint jobs tideace do.
Tideacebike
This ride looks sweet! Might help me not becoming the first to drop on grouprides ;D
Tideacebike
This would certainly turn heads at the weeknight crits...
Always fun when someone has a flashy or unique bike at the races!
Too bad this Tideacebike lottery is not fully open to just ALL members (my account is relatively new but I'm reading it since last years almost every week :()
Tideacebike
Futuristic looking aero frame.
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Building up my Tideace GR201 in British Racing Green at the moment - thanks to all members in this forum for the great recommendation.
Tideacebike
they offer some great colors
Tideacebike
My suggestion for future bike frames would be to continue making seatposts where the saddle can be pushed all the way forward. I think that many cyclists who buy aero frames look for this detail in case they use aero bars for a triathlon, and then use it again as a road bike. You have two bikes in one.
Tideacebike
Looks stiff. Anyone ridden it?
Tideace
Colors of your frames are amazing quality, I have GR201 and quality is top notch!
Tideacebike
Such a cool looking aero frame looks like a spaceship
Tideacebike
Sweet looking frame 8)
Tideacebike
Would really like to ride it. Have never tried an aero frame.
Tideacebike
looks good frame !
Tideacebike
Interesting!
Tideacebike
I'd like to see a handlebar that matches the aesthetics of the frame.
Tideacebike
Nice looking aero bike frame, which (I hope) will be mine 8)
Tideacebike
looks good.
Tideacebike
Since aerobikes are now back, appreciate it if I could build a bike with this awesome looking frame.
Tideacebike
Would be a perfect project parellel to the gravel bike build.
Tideacebike
Looks good the frame!
Tideacebike
Gonna order and build my full chiner bike after black friday this year, this would be a welcome discount ;D
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Never owned an aero bike before but thrilled to build one with this frame.
Looks like a nice bike upgrade
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Looks great!
Tideacebike
Building bikes is a passion and racing them is my life. Would love to test this frame to the fullest ;-)
Tideacebike
what a coincidence I stumble upon this thead after I built up and an old tideace frame I had from like 2018 as a gift for a friend who wants to start road cycling ;)
Tideacebike
Currently looking very closely at the Noah gravel frame but really like the unique tideace designs
Tideace, great looking aero frame with plenty of tire clearance.
Would suit the local in Japan quite well.
Tideacebike
New build incoming? :) Sweet frame.
Tideacebike
Let's give it a shot!
I'd like to see higher stack on bikes, but it's a more aggressive geometry and probably suits the bike well.
Would love to try it!
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
8)
Tideacebike
That frame looks to my eyes actually pretty awesome, even geometry look pretty good for me in XL size. One thing I would like to see is 34mm tyre clearance, just because 32mm tyres on wide rims measure around 34mm so 32mm is not quite enough.
Tideacebike
Frame looks great! Would be cool to see downtube storage for small tool or pump
Tideacebike
Looks like a really nice frame. The one thing i would like to see in future iterations are subjectively nicer colorways. I would get a glossy black one, which looks nice. But tend not to want to have black bikes. The other basic colorways are not really to my taste and look a bit cheap while the custom ones look dope AF.
Tideacebike
🤞🤞🤞
Tideacebike
After having some trouble with my other built I'd be interersted.
Tideacebike
Hoping to offer a new bike to my girlfriend !

Just checking out the geometry. I'm 178cm but usually ride a small/51 in most brands.
The small has a very long reach ( for the size ). Around 20mm longer than my Cervelo S3 and Caledonia-5.
The Medium reach is only 3mm longer than the small but with a much greater stack.
Why is the small so long when the industry is generally moving more towards a shorter reach ?
Tideacebike
I agree, in addition no seatpost option and it doesn't look like a 0 offset one. I would need to go S with a very short headset or XS...
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
This tightass bike rider would sure appreciate this Tideacebike frame
Tideacebike
I would love to see this frame with wider tire clearance - 35C.
I've always wanted to try an aero frame, why not this Tideacebike :)
Tideacebike
Looks great
I've never considered the Tideacebike brand ;D (this discussion helped me discover it ;)) but I don't have an aero frame so I'd love to enter the draw if possible! ;D
Tideacebike
;D
Tideacebike
Only thing I could wish for would be a little bit more stack in size L because I'm 188cm with long legs (92cm inseam)
Tideacebike
Looks like a sick frame. Good luck to everyone else in the giveaway!
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Very nice looking bike!
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Tideacebike looking sweet 👌
Tideacebike 8) rocket bike
Tideacebike
Increasing stack height through other handlebars could be interesting
Tideacebike
Well Well Well i Need this!
Tideacebike
Looks fast.
Tideacebike
That frame looks absolutley savage.
It would be a proper replacement for my Ridley Noah FAST that I recently retired/moved on!
Tideacebike
This frame looks absolutely marvelous!
Tideacebike
An external test of frame durabillity would be great since I was very close buying one but tideace support told me some very high max. rider weight like 160kg which would be crazy high.
Nonetheless it would be amazing to win one 🚴♀️💨
Tideacebike
Looks great :)
Tideacebike
Love the chonky fork and deep tubes!
And please dont forget us tall boys. Keep making those 60+ Frames!

Tideacebike
Good looking frame!
Tideacebike
I've been looking for aero bike! ;D
Tideacebike
WHAT A FRAME!!!
Tideacebike
Awesome frame! Has really good features. Maybe a little bit more tire clearance would be nice but for most cases 32mm is enough.
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Looks like a sick a frame
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
Considering I just wrecked my frame, this would be a great replacement
Nice whip! I have a set of carbon wheels that would look great on it.
Good Luck Peeps.
Tideacebike
Tideacebike
34C clearance
Better water protection for the seatpost
A little more stack
Some wind tunnel data (not only a CFD video).
Keep the UDH and the T47 and the shape of the bike.
Tideacebike!
Looks pretty damn sick. Always liked the look of Tideace frames and would love to have a go at building something like this. I usually stick to less aero-oriented frames but simply have to try if given the opportuniy. Would gladly pay for shipping a custom paintjob too. Cheers.
Tideacebike
I find this frame ugly. But i lost a bet so i must build and ride it for a year :P
For future iterations, I suggest tideace to stop this frame immediately.
Tideacebike
Tideacebike.
Tideacebike
Good luck everyone
Tideacebike
I think the fork ends being so sharply square looks a bit out of place with the rounded corners around the rear triangle dropouts. Overall looks great with the deep tubes :)
Reposted because I didn't have my pfp uploaded
Tideacebike
Looks great. Have you considered modelling a frame to fit a specific pair of aerobottles as I think this will be the next big thing
Tideacebike
Frame looks nice and aero. Got nice specifications and all. Only thing I would consider changing is making it a bit less bulky which could make it a bit lighter. Otherwise nice!
t i d e a c e b i k e
not the biggest fan of the design right now but could be better in the flesh so to speak
Tideacebike
deadline day :D
joined 2 years ago, but more of a reader than a poster.
But thanks to all the contributors! I learned a lot here with building my bikes during this period.
Tideacebike
I love the wide fork blades, the seatstays on the other hand could be more sleekly integrated I think. Hard to tell without having it in hand though.
