Maintenance, Mechanics, & Tools / Trouble bleeding the brakes on Lcfs911
« on: May 17, 2023, 11:02:11 AM »
Hi guy's I'm having trouble with bleeding the brakes, I've been trying in several different ways but I cant get the rear brake to it's full potential.

My guess is that it is air in the hoose under the crank, I've been whipping the handle, twisting the handle, tried to bleed the brakes according to shimanos guide, I've been trying to do it the traditional way as you do it on cars but I'm a not satisfied.

Is there anyone else that's been having the same kind of issues?

Mine came with both mounts.. in 2019. Standard mounting hardware and small washers on trunnion mount..  I have been wonder why there is only trunnion option now.
My frame came with bolts and hardware for a regular shock, I can't find a washer that fits

How have you guys that run a shock with trunnion mount solved the problem with that the shock is 54mm and the space between the frame/bearings are 56mm?

Are you confusing trunnion with eyelet? A trunnion shock on a trunnion frame requires no additional hardware on the one side. If you're using a normal 165x38mm shock with eyelets on both sides, they made adapter kits, but I've read that they generally don't hold up well.

No I've had a regular shock using the adapter kit but now I'm transferring to a trunnion shock and it is a gap between the shock and the frame. You have to have something else that fills the gap

The frame comes with bearings in the frame and the bolts. Just bolt the shock in there.
Not if you're using a shock with trunnion mount, it will be a small gap between the shock and the frame/bearing.

I use RWC Needle Bearing on the shock eyelet
How did you solve it in the lower mount?

Component Deals & Selection / 2 or 3 pos lockout?
« on: September 28, 2022, 06:40:23 AM »
I've been riding the brain system for years now and on my Lcfs911 build iam thinking about if I should have 2 or 3 pos lockout.

What do you people think, do you use 3 positions or is it enough with 2?

Hi guys I would appreciate some advice on how to solve the bleeding issue I have on my Lcfs911, the rear brake/caliber don't get hard. Have tried many different techniques, I think that the air is trapped underneath the bottombracket part of the frame.

The picture shows were I think the problem is

How did you guys solve the rear brakeline issue?

Did you cut the cone to be able to pull the line through the rear triangle or did you use a drill to take up the whole in the triangle?

Component Deals & Selection / Lcfs911 advice
« on: July 31, 2021, 04:54:10 PM »
Hi i would appreciate some advise regarding my new build on the Lcfs911 frame, i have a Shimano xt m800 pressfit bottombracket. What should i use when mounting the bearing on the carbon frame? Grease? Loctite?

Shimano dosent mention any of these things in their online installation manual.

I would also like to know which size of the chainring/cranksprocket that i could use on the frame, would like to mount a oval 36t but im afraid that it will damage the frame.
