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

I use mine on the road with gravel tires regularly. Recently put the new SILCA RCG1s on it and took it to my local Tuesday smash fest.

This bike rides like a dream. See my post history for the build, only change is that I’ve dropped the TB for RCG1s in 50mm.

Yet another Lexon crack owner here (original bars plus the replacements). I’m going to try the tavelo avro-gr next.

Yikes, glad it wasn’t worse.

I’m currently on my replacement set. They are holding up well but it is annoying to think about them every time it gets technical/rough.

And after that another 30 days at least before you actually have it ..
So September..

IDK, painting was 7 days, shipping was 42 hours. Surely 30 days isn’t the norm.

2.1

Can you speak on the quality of the carbon?

thanks but i dont understand how is this possible ? if 160mm is native on the frame and fork then we need 20mm adapter for 180mm ?

I guess it depends on your brake caliper system. Most nowadays come with the ability to have both 160 and 180 mm rotors by flipping the bracket one direction for 160 mm and the other way for 180 mm.

Hello  my frame should arrive in the coming days  :)

I want to order the last part, the disc brake. Did you guys had to use an adaptator to mount 160mm disc ? thanks

No adapter is necessary for 160 or 180cm brakes

Has anyone ran narrower road tires on their GR201 for road rides? I have a Domane for road riding but it feels so sluggish (the engine accepts most of the blame here) and the GR201 feels way more lively even with big tires so I was thinking of picking up a narrower set of wheels and running 28c/30c tires for an occasional fast road ride. I'm currently running 9VELO GV2.0 wheels with 48c Tufo Thunderos.

I think it’s a great road bike. I don’t really notice a difference from my Rose X-Lite 06 - marginally slower perhaps.

Did 56km with 615m of climbing today and averaged 32.5 km/h at 63.5% FTP (35 miles at 20.2 mph w/ a little over 2k feet of climbing). Very decent numbers IMO for this bike.

I pulled the trigger for the Lexon unox at the end.
I read also quite positive opinions about it. I think it will be a matter of mounting it carefully and not overtightened it. will keep you post it in case I face any issue there

Mine cracked after tightening to 5 nm with a torque wrench. I am not a novice bike builder either. After further investigation, there were pits in the carbon that led to fair hairline cracks.

They refused to send a replacement but gave me a discount on a replacement.

If I had to do it again, I would go with avian.

What kind of solutions do you have in mind? The frame comes with a little zipper bag that fits into the compartment. That's a very practical solution. I'll post some pics tomorrow.

I saw some posts on a different thread but I can’t remember where. It was a 3d printed insert that connected to the fidlock some how

If you don't need more than a 42 on an aero gravel bike then you have no need for an aero gravel bike and are wasting your time racing.

Which is why the suggestion is so preposterous that it can't be true.

Yeah, honestly a fair point. Perhaps some folks don’t want to hear that but it’s true.. I have a 46/10 on my bike and sometimes it doesn’t feel like enough but I can’t go much higher due to the climbing ratio issue. I’d never go to a 42T chainring. With that I would spin out way too often.

Anyone have any custom 3d printed storage solutions for the internal storage compartment?

Mondince makes handlebars and can include them.

I really like that color, frame looks great!

Exactly. By the **Raw Carbon Frame** finish, that's what I mean. The frame has an exposed carbon finish covered with a transparent clear coat, so you can still see the carbon weave and patterns underneath.

Sometimes that clear coat has a slight tint, which means that instead of seeing the carbon weave in black, it appears in a different color. In this case, I believe they offer two shades of blue and one red option.

My **Orbea Rise** has the **Blue Raw Carbon View** finish, and the color is absolutely stunning.

Here is mine
