Reviews & Ratings
The Tideace XC832 is a 32-inch carbon hardtail MTB frame designed for XC/downcountry riding, priced at $499 (frame only) with an optional $199 fork. It features a 66° head tube angle, T47 BB, Super Boost 157×12mm rear axle, UDH hanger, integrated downtorage, and compatibility with 100mm travel forks (15×110mm front hub). The frame uses carbon material, supports 32×2.4" tires, and has internal cable routing through the headset (with optional cable ports). Key concerns include limited hub/spoke availability for 32" wheels, few tire options, and the niche Super Boost standard increasing build complexity and cost.
