Cyclocross Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: Tideace NEW Gravel Frame: GR201

Heres my build, finished on the weekend and rode it today.
LTwoo 1x12 groupset with a ZRace (I think) 36t crank.
Some old Prime wheels with Tufo Thundero HD in 44c. Rides fine, a few minor adjustments needed but happy so far.

I'm 188cm tall and I think my inseam is 88cm, I went with the L(56) also.

The same frame appears to be resold by a few companies, I'm not sure who actually manufactures it but that doesnt bother me too much, so long as its decent quality and price is right.

Tideace have standard colors to choose from on their website, they have some nice designs on their youtube channel and I chose the colors of my frame based on a classic race car

When could it arrive in Italy?

I normally use https://parcelsapp.com/ to track my stuff from China, depending how it goes though it may get held up in customs or other issues.

Also I see some people say the P505 is not compatible with the T47 BB, did you run into any problems or know why they claim this?

I have a magene P505 in a T47 BB in my Elves Falath EVO+ with a couple thousand km so far, seems to work alright for me.
The only Issue I had was the bolts coming loose so have added some loctite, its a common issue from a quick google search.

The ztto BB has been great but note I swapped the bearings out almost immediately for enduro steel bearings with the contact seals on the outside and non-contact seals on the inside. This feels like a really good value option as they have held up really well in some rough conditions.

Do you mind sharing any info on the bearings you swapped to please? The size or model would be great if possible. Thanks!

I've gone with this BB for when my frame arrives - I've used in in other bikes and its good! ZTTO T47-24I

What colour have you gone for?

Thanks, just ordered that BB but saw some others are swapping the bearings out, anyone got specs on what to please?
If swapping means longer lasting or better seals that would be great, prefer steel bearings.

Colour wise I went with hopefully close to the Ford GT blue and orange scheme.

The rest of my build is mostly Ali Express parts, 1x12 LTwoo mechanical groupset, some old Prime carbon wheels, looking forward to building it up!

Just paid for my GV201 after settling on the frame colours. I went with a 56cm size and am 188cm tall, its very similar geometry to my existing gravel bike thats being retired.
A few questions I am hoping someone can assist with please....

The headset that comes with the bike, is it worth using or should I purchase a better one? I'm hoping for internal cable routing but will be using separate handlebar and stem, just routing into the frame via the headset.

Also, I'll be installing a 24mm LTwoo crank set, same size as Shimano, can anyone recommend a bottom bracket that might fit please? Prefer steel bearings and happy to purchase from Alix or Bikeinn.

Thanks, I'll post some pics once it gets here

I'm on the lookout for a new gravel bike also, I still have a month or so to decide what I'm going to do but the front runner so far that also fits most of your criteria is a Tideace:

Being not far from mainland UK you could check out Ribble bikes. I'm replaceing a Ribble CGR-SL due to me being a big fat guy and wearing it out. Love my Ribble though.
