So i agree that you started a little high with the frame but what a lot of guys on this forum are unwilling to try that i have tried and know people to have tried is buy all parts from aliexpress.  Most people on this forum stop on the frame.... they think that that is the only corner worth cutting because of the stigma of fox and rock shox.  I do think that such a build is still possible but you will have to do a ton of research.  There is a company on aliexpress that sells shocks called Himalo and having worked in a bike shop for many years and taken apart many shocks in my day cannot tell you a single difference between Himalo and other name brand shocks.  It wouldnt surprise me if they are the same thing.  I have ran them for a little over six months and they are incredible. for 180 USD  you can buy himalo shocks at 100 to 200 mil travel and they are incredible. that would save you a ton of money.

With 2 sets of the bushing kits all fited perfecly and the rear shock could be mounted in place



Im building tihs as a trailbike more than a XC bike. So the front chainring is 30 teeth, the rear 11-51. All parts in the groupset are Shimano Deore



There are some small things left to adjust and a dropper post will be fitted, but the bike is now very close to finished.

I am very happy with the Light Carbon LCFS911 frame so far. Everything has fitted perfecly and the finish of all parts is really good.
