Re: Tideace NEW Gravel Frame: GR201
Realized I forgot to post my build for the winter months here in denmark. I bought the TanTan version and the quality seems very good. Build it up from parts from a crashed bike and what good offers I could find. And yes you can fit a 48t chainring with sram DUB Wide. At least on a size 58. https://photos.app.goo.gl/9EwZJ5n7STsFzVYeA December 24, 2024, 06:40:57 AM |

Re: Tideace NEW Gravel Frame: GR201
You can run eTap road 2x with 40c (41.5mm measured at the rim). For sure on dry roads. Can probably fit 42-44 on Shimano 2x. I really don't need anything wider than 38/40s within a 4 hour drive. The gravel around here is packed and tamed. This is my temporary setup for now... January 01, 2025, 12:25:45 PM |

Re: Tideace NEW Gravel Frame: GR201
Let me know what you think I have enjoyed my @canyon Grizl for three years and I will certainly continue to do so. But the Grizl is an all-rounder that does not excel in pure speed. That's why I decided to build a new gravel bike. After an extensive search for a suitable gravel frame, I came across @Tideace. They have been supplying very nice gravel and road frames for years and the N.O.A.H. gravel immediately caught the eye. A modern geometry with a robust look. Build the complete bike last week and today the first test ride. First feeling: "how fast and direct this bike is". I'm completely turned now! This is what I am currently looking for in a gravel bike. I will share som building tips on my Instagram account. @cyclewithjouke in the weeks. Below you will find the complete setup: Frame: @Tideace NOAH Handlebar: Lexon Unox 40cm gravelbar Wheels: @zipp 303 s XPLR Tyres: @Goodyear 45mm XPLR slicks Groupset: @Sram XPLR Front chainring: 40t @alugear OSPW: @Novaride Saddle: @prologo Scratch M5 Nack (Carbon) Pedals: @Garmin rally      January 05, 2025, 06:55:17 AM |

Re: Tideace NEW Gravel Frame: GR201
Hi everyone! Hi again, I completed the build, with the SRAM GX and Rival shifters, and set out to test it around Issyk-Kul Lake (about 450 km), driving around it in two days. The temperature range from -27°C to 0°C. Out of the total distance, about a third was proper asphalt, and the rest was a mess of varying bad conditions (gravel, ice, snow). The frame performed excellently: solid and responsive. It absorbed vibrations well, even though I used 40mm tires. The only drawback was that the glove compartment lid rattled slightly, and the storage bag wore through to holes due to the lower bottle cage mounts inside the frame. As for the drivetrain—an absolute delight. Fast, smooth, precise, and not a single glitch the entire ride. Yes, the weight went up a bit—now 8.8 kg without pedals. January 31, 2025, 02:56:48 AM |

Re: Velobuild AERO GRAV Frame
Got to say I'm more than frustrated with this situation. There's no good and precise information from them, just a sequence of delays. First frames would be finished by end of may, then end june, now mid july. What next? A very poor comunicating channel (I asked them last week when they would ship the frame and no answer so far). I'm relying on other people comments here right now. The product page keep stacking the number of sold frames, and no frame actually exists that we know of. I know what I choose, I know chinese sellers are difficult in certain aspects, but come on guys, this is getting ridiculous now. June 20, 2025, 09:37:19 AM |

Re: Velobuild AERO GRAV Frame
...and now get your things together and use realistic delivery dates on your frames. I'm still waiting for the shipment of my frame. We completely hear you and you're right, delivery timelines need to be realistic. Sorry you're still waiting on your frame, that’s not the experience we want anyone to have. Can you shoot us a DM at the WhatsApp number below with your order number? We’ll check on it right away and make sure you’re in the loop. Thanks for your patience and for keeping us accountable.

Re: Aero gravel - The pursuit
The Grevil has terrible geometry for a modern day Gravel bike. BB drop of 67mm you don’t see on modern road frames. For gravel 75mm is the standard today. I have great news. Peter's clone has 72mm BB drop on all sizes (original grevil has 72 only on the smallest sizes) And it has better clearance than the Ridley Astr in 2x (50mm vs 47mm) https://xmcarbonspeed.com/Productinfo.asp?f=1639 June 30, 2025, 09:39:16 AM |
