"Yep same with mine. End of December to be precise. I got an image of a complete build, it looks pretty sweet. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to repost it though."

We won't tell anyone if you post an image of the finished bike.

Yep, and if you upload using the sites attachments unregistered users cant see the photo.

Latest update I got is delivery at the end of January  due to the frame not passing qa.

Not sure which I like better, this or the Firebird clone.

I might be interested in a group buy of this frame if the AM831 doesn't happen anytime soon & this one don't drag out to long. Biggest problem might be finding more people tho.

[QuentinLL]

I would be interested in size L.
Tell us when you know if group buy is possible, and the average date of production

[CasualRider]

Waiting reply from Lightcarbon on the status of the build and testing

[CasualRider]

Woohooo, bike finally ready! Shipping on the 3rd week this month.

Frame is listed on LoghtCarbon site again.
Whey are not selling it to single customers, right?

not sure, perhaps it got cancelled.

I checked geometry one again and it looks like an issue with frame design. For frame size L seat post insert length is only 170. So with KS LEV with 175 travel seat tube with installed dropper post will be approx. 530. It is toooo much.

Insertion is pretty small, i'ts because they put the suspension pivot in the seat tube. Out of all the droppers I've found the Oneup V2 has the shortest lenght, 150@420mm, 180@480 and you can shim the travel down 10 or 20mm.
