What to check once the frame arrive.
« on: October 01, 2023, 02:23:21 AM »
A couple of weeks ago I had ordered a Light Carbon 918 and 911 frames. They have already shipped the frames few days ago.

This is my first rodeo with chinese frames so I don't know what things I have to check onces the frames arrive. For example, I know that it is conviniente to chek the bottom bracket alignment, and I guess is convient to check cable holes and the threaded holes (I mean the place where the screws going into).

Do you have any other item that should have to be checked when you recieve the frame?

I don't know if this post fits in this section or it is better in the maintenance. Administrators can move it if they wish. I used the Search bar, but I couldn't find a similar post.

Thanks in advance!

Remove all the bearings and either add new quality branded MTB bearings or at the very least pop the seals and top up with grease.
Thread lock all frame bolts.
