bosbik:
Really enjoy seeing your builds.. This model really is growing on me and getting pretty tempted to get one.. One question though.. I saw on hambini's video review of a road frame that there are frame grades.. Do you know what frame grade you got?

Bigbobby1482:
That doesn't sound good, there should be no play in the pivot side to side. Make sure there isn't any play, if there is you should contact LC to fix it. Play in pivot is really not good, it might also be the bearings they supplied with the frame are terrible.

The rear shock usually makes some noises when squashed. Check if it is there it's coming from.

repoman:
I wound up making my own pin and bushings, very solid now. 
The bushing kit wasn't Fox, it was some budget one so the problem was there.

I wasn't presented with the options that were in the Hambini vid, I see some other people got that with the new road frame. Dunno what's up with that, maybe this model frame doesn't come with those options.

jefflinde:
I reached out to Wendy and specifically asked about the grades. I was told that all of their frames are Z3 grade frames.  To me that seems to make sense as I have had very well finished and sorted frames.  Not to be a shill or anything as I have no affiliation with them but I have ordered 10+ frames from them at this point for friends and family, and all of them have been trouble free. 

jefflinde:
I was hoping for an even lighter version of the 980 through. That would have been icing on the cake.
