Hambini did a review of a Lightcarbon gravel frame, up on YT. I'm to stupid to get a URL working in this forum, so you have to find it yourself.
Well worth a look get a feel for LightCarbons QC/QA and engineering principles.

Yes, I've already seen it. Even before buying  :)
Maybe someone can send him the LCR017 Frame  ;D

I'm sooo close to pulling the trigger and getting this ordered. Any idea on the wait time with the custom paint option??

Mikey.

Ordered 27th of April and got the notification that it was shipped on the 8th of May.

Any chance SPcycle will do a lightweight climbing frame with T47 bottom bracket and 32c tire clearance? I know there's the SP-053D, but I'd prefer not to go with a BB86 frameset. I have an older SP-027D which I'm quite happy with. Though I might be interested in getting a climbing frame in the near future.

I saw them on gmbn video or another YouTuber last week, looks interesting

Ordered a frameset with handlebar, size M in a darkblue metallic paint which I'm eagerly awaiting delivery on.

Will build it up with Elite Wheels Drive 50mm, Dura Ace 12sp and Favero Assiomas Duo. Fingers crossed it will come in around 7.6-7.8 kg with pedals, bottle cages and garmin mount.

Was contemplating going deeper on the wheels just for the aeeeeeeero look :) but settled on the 50mm as I have on most of my bikes. Live in a windy area with rolling terrain but no major climbs in terms of length.

Hi, thanks a lot for your fast replies

Are there any wider rims with more then 25mm internal as this seems to be the sweetspot for 28mm tires, i guess 28mm would be perfect internally.

What's your suggestion

Thanks mates

Thanks, I will definitely double-check.
My rides felt normal otherwise but the brake power has quite some leverage through the fork, right?
Did you "feel" anything while riding?

I swapped a flat bar for a drop bar on a gravel bike and installed a GR9 ltwoo system.

Everyone was fine for the first 100 miles or so. Then while braking the rear brake locked up. Now I am unable to bleed it. Ie can not push any fluid through. Any ideas?

 I did like the 11-51 range and it shifted nicely with a Shimano cues cassette.

Lol those holes are the most retarded pattern imaginable, it's almost funny. imagine the donkey who came up with the design.

They work fine! I double checked my gravel bike brake pads which does long descents on dirt trails and there are no deep track lines on the pads. My 2x160mm rotors are 1.6mm thick and feel quite sturdy. For someone to toast their rotors and dig tracks into their brake pads suggest to me they weighed like 130kg and had zero clue how to feather and modulate front/rear braking! There's a reason they have bigger rotors for bigger riders!

I think it is 90mm rear travel with 190x45mm shock.
