Re: LCFS958 Build (eventually) Last day of painting. Going to give it a day or so to fully cure.

Re: The Shiny New AM831 Group Buy (A) Thread!
Remedy, if you haven't ordered your frame yet, the new ones come with the revised rear triangle so it's no longer an issue for you.

I haven’t. Just trying to decide if I do it through Eddie or TanTan. Rather not Eddie due to his lack of help in the past. But it seems tantan is iffy on shipping.

Re: LCFS958 Build (eventually) Here it is all built up. Survived a day at the park and I quite like it.

More to come.

Re: LCFS958 Build (eventually) Update **

Bike is currently broken. Made it three laps down the mountain at my local park and on the final lap the lower mounting bolts sheared off into the shock. I thought at first maybe they didn’t get torqued and fell out but no. It’s a shame I’m having these issue because I do enjoy the bike as a whole.

Re: LCFS958 Build (eventually)

Perhaps one screw sits slightly higher and takes more force? Then, when one snaps the other does too?

That’s precisely what I think happened. If you look at the earlier post this frame had questionable mounting holes upon receiving it which I brought up to LightCarbon who tried assuring me it’s fine. Luckily I pushed for a new front triangle which looks better. New boots are also different than the first set. So we shall see.

Also im not super heavy with riding weight at about 190.

Re: LCFS947 - 160mm 4-bar 27+/29
Thanks for your reply and sharing your experience.

Light Carbon answered me that the BB will drop 17 mm to 330 mm if I run it as I asked. 330 mm is not too bad and with 165 mm cranks maybe pedal strike want be a problem.

Im really considering this as a fun option :-)

Do it. I have not once considered going back to full 29. But also I only ride my 947 downhill. No pedaling required.  ;D

Re: LightCarbon 918?
I have my frame and a in the process of building it up.   Where are you guys getting spacers for the rear shock?  I have 9mm on either side of the lower shock and I am not able to source anything.  Should I just make my own?

Offsetbusings has what you need.

Re: The Shiny New AM831 Group Buy (A) Thread! I tried looking but can these fit a coil. Found a great deal on a Super Deluxe coil.
