Re: Spcycle G058 New Mold Carbon Gravel Frameset I really would like this frame BUT with UDH and Downtube storage... why doesn't anybody make one? Perferably EPS and possibly even lighter? To much asked?  ;D

Re: Tideace NEW Gravel Frame: GR201 A new headset will not solve the issue as the Tantan uses proprietary spacers. I dont think there is any other C ring available that will fit this handlebar.

Re: Tideace NEW Gravel Frame: GR201 I used the deda dcr 45x45 nylon compression ring as I metioned some posts above. Works great. No rattling. The gap is about 2 mm. For me it is fine. You could also sand it down like 1mm then it is perfect.

Re: Tideace NEW Gravel Frame: GR201 Finally finished and tested my first ever build. Rode only about 100 km yet, but like it really much.

Frame: Tideace GV201, size 54, pearl white
Handlebars: Lexon UNOX 500-80
Seatpost: Elita One 0mm offset
Groupset: Wheeltop EDS GeX, long cage
Cassette: ZTTO SLR Gen 3 12s 9-51t
Chain: YBN SLA1210
Crankset: Magene PES P515
Chainring: PASS QUEST 40T 0mm offset
Bottom bracket: Token BB47V24
Wheelset: Elitewheels ENT-DISC 40 from my previous bike
Brakes: ZRACE XG4
Rotors: Shimano RT56
Tires: Continental GP5000 32mm
Pedals: Crankbrothers Candy 1
Saddle: Ryet
Handlebar tape: BUCKLOS
Bottle cages: Kocevlo

The total weight with pedals and all the cages and mounts is about 8.5 kg. However, the wheels are quite heavy at 1700+ grams. Planning to build two other sets for road and gravel. Must be close to 8 kg with the road rubber and still about 8.5 kg with some fatties.

The total price is a little more than $1900, except wheels, tires and pedals, which I already had. Most of the components (except chain, tires and pedals) are from Aliexpress, Taobao and other Chinese marketplaces.

I'm 177 cm with 81.5 cm inseam, and size 54 frame with 8 cm stem fits perfectly.

Thanks to everyone on this topic for tons of useful info. And thank you @KopytoNieBladzi for the color scheme inspiration. The handlebar tape might seem a little bit odd on the photos, but it looks so much better in real life, in combination with blue brakes and bolts. Some other blue accessories are already in the shopping cart.

Some component notes:

The ultralight (303 g) 9-51t cassette works flawlessly so far. Had to screw in the tension bolt a little bit more to tension the chain properly on the 9t cog.

P515 crankset requires 2 mm of spacers to fit on the frame. It would work with 1 mm too, but some sand and dirt can cause rubbing. I also added 1 mm spacer on the left crank for balance. There is enough crankshaft length for that.

At first I bought a 44t chainring with 3 mm offset (Wuzei), but it didn't fit. The space between the chainring and a chainstay was a little bit more than 1 mm (with 2 mm of spacers on the crank). I ended up with 40t no-offset chainring.

ZRACE brakes work well but don't blow my mind, considering that this is 4-piston brakes on (kind of) road bike. The pads are squeaking as hell, will change them.
