Description

Road cycling just got lightweight and affordable. In this video, I build up the Tideace FM-CR025 carbon frame into a full road-ready machine—delivering big performance, smart weight savings, and impressive cost efficiency. The unbranded black-glossy frame might fly under the radar, but the results speak for themselves.
By running a 1x L-Twoo eGR electronic drivetrain and pairing it with a budget-friendly lightweight wheelset, this bike tips the scales at 6.8 kg (14.99 lbs)—the official UCI weight limit. And the best part? The entire build comes in at around $2,575, saving thousands compared to mainstream brand setups with similar specs.
Whether you’re looking to race, climb, or just cruise fast, this Tideace FM-CR025 proves you don’t need a big name to build a seriously capable road bike.
