But back to Topic.

Which frame should be better?

LCR017-D (Light Version 900g cause - is it possible) or Yishun R1058-D (Normal Version 1050g / LightVersion not possible)?


Both are in my shortlist for an competitive Allround-Bike-Build.

They're both kinda different geometry, so maybe the better one is the one that suits your needs best.

I had both on my shortlist and went with an R086-D, instead.

Wait I thought you went for LCR0X?

Ended up canning the order and went with the R068-D instead. In the end I felt the LCR0X's stack is just a little too low for me. I think for my body proportions, the 68 is probably as low as I can get while still slamming the stem...
It’s so clearly a LARP of an aero bike.

Wanted something a little longer reach than my Endurace, similar stack and fully integrated cables. Felt like I was gambling with comfort too much on the 0X. I really liked the eurobike form of the 17, but in its current aesthetic, it's just too meh. T47 would've been nice, but BB86 it is.

I don’t understand why the date of the pictures says they were taken on 7th of January 2023, but you still displayed the prototype frame at Eurobike 23 in July and showed it on the web page.

Because the prototype looks good and the production looks ugly

It does not make any sense though: customers will buy the production build, and why would you show a prototype when you already have the production version?

I think I will strike at the Superlight version. I find the frame not ugly at all. Rather classic. And with a nice paint job and stickers you can enhance any frame excellent.
And he should just be an all-rounder for competitive use, because I live in a hilly landscape.

Lightcarbon seems to provide excellent quality.
They sell their frames to so many small to medium bike brands.

And I'm just not looking for a tinker frame but a frame like from an established western brand.
And I think here I feel in good hands.

The seat tube, seat stays and seat post look so different in these photo compared to the ones on your Facebook page.

Doesn't look like the same frame...


I have the confirmation.
Maybe I'm the only one who got it wrong... This is the Superlight frame. It is designed for people up to a weight of I think 100 or 110 kilograms.

The standard frame looks a bit different... that's probably the other shape that's been around.

Visually, of course, it's really tasty again! :D

They are not the same frame. Not even a little bit, not at all.

Back to Lab71 design? Sad that I already bought Yishun one. I would be ready to wait for 2 months but Gavin have not responded to me on email so I went with R086D. Maybe this will be my second bike just in case
