Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Spcycle 053V
« on: September 21, 2023, 03:57:56 PM »
Built this with a 1x Sensah group set that was lying around for a nearly two years, Light carbon wheels.
Idea is to use for Road mostly and light gravel once in a while as the frame can clear 32c.

Current weight is 17lbs with bottle cages and pedals.

What do you all think?

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Road Frame SP-053V - Rim brake
« on: February 27, 2023, 10:59:20 AM »
Hello All, Need opinions on this frame for 90/10 Road/ Gravel riding. 28c on Road and 32c on gravel.

I have a rim brake carbon road wheelset to utilize that takes 28c and will use a gravel specific tire when needed.

Planning to run as 1x Sensah( again lying in the bin) on Size Medium (175cm)

Questions:
1. is this frame too aggressive? I am not planning to race
2. Any others that can clear 32c with rim brakes?

Fat Bikes / Modern geo. Fat frame?
« on: February 01, 2021, 07:22:06 PM »
Hi there, Is there a recommendation for a carbon frame that has reasonable Geo. I am looking to build a Rigid fat bike.
Is the LC613 worth considering?

29er / LCFS 958 build help
« on: August 27, 2020, 02:47:54 PM »
Planning to build a LCFS958, Trail bike.
A few questions from a total newbie.
Is this a easy frame to build out?Any gotchas people encountered?
Does anyone have a part list that would work with it or are willing to help me with? I am looking for a middle of the pack groupset, and suspension components- nothing exotic. Ditto for wheelset- possibly carbon from same company.
I am in the Midwest and a beginner .Will not be doing any aggressive riding at all. Mostly flowy trails.
I understand this is too generic, please be kind
