Cyclocross Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: Megamo frames

Your are "almost certain", you "could even tell the builder". Lot's of talks, zero specifics.

It’s well known that they used open mould frames (Hongdu, Flyxii).
So would that suddenly be different now?

But hey, you’re free to question my assumption 😉. It’s just a question to maybe get further in the search for this frame. I’m not here to have a discussion about wording or back-and-forth arguments.

But the OP is almost certain... Xd
Just to be clear: it’s generally known that they used open-mould frames on previous models. I could even tell you the builder 😉.

And you can’t really call it very high-end. So, the fact that it could be an open mould isn’t that strange, right?

Anyway, thanks for the answers.

I really like the Megamo gravel bikes. But i almost certain know it are open mould builds. Who knows what the manufacturer is?

Has anyone self painted this frame? If so did you paint the storage cover as well? Assume the cover is plastic?

Thinking of doing this myself and from the frames I've seen here those with the matching cover do look good.

Why would you do it yourself? The paintjob of Tideace is good. And you pay around €150,-

I can't do it myself for that money

Hot dang! Now that is a gravel build. And extra kudos on the Nova Ride OSPW. Thanks for sharing!

I assume the cassette is a 10-44t?

Any issues with tire sidewall cuts on those Goodyears paired with the XPLR Zipp Wheels? I have not heard great things about those tires from both consumers and even SRAM employees.

Thanks!

It is indeed a 10-44t cassette. I always ride this cassette with a 40 or 42 front chainring.

For now, I am really impressed by the wheels in combination with these tires. I have not seen any issues so far.

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

Normally i use 160 Sram brake rotors. Do i  need a adapter with this frame?

Ok thanks!

Last question. Anyone knows a nice gravel handlebar.
Or is the Tideace HB/008 ok? I dont like the roundings. I want it a bit more square on the headtube.

Handlebar needs to be fully integrated.

Went with size 56 I'm 182


Sram force shifters & brakes

Sram red xplr 13 speed derailleur and cassette

Enve AR 40cm bars

Enve SES 4.5 wheels

tufo gravel thundero 48mm (tubeless 60ml sealant in each)

Overall I'm happy with it. Rear brake mounts are on a slight angle took abit of work to not get it to rub. Really needs to be faced.


ello,

I'm about to purchase this frame.

Frame must be sprayed in Pearl white with Matte black.
I plan to purchase the frame from TANTAN.
Now I'm wondering the following: There are three bolts in the front fork.
However, I also see frames passing by without these bolts.

Can someone explain to me how this works?

See bike from @Osh as an example.
