Or don't wanna face a cease and desist letter...
.
Ha! That too.  Just don't get why they can't design a frame that's relatively light, aero and structural  while also being aesthetically pleasing to look at?

I had a close look at the cannondale version of these frames today in a shop. the down tube on the cannondale (the side facing the wind) is very much tear drop shaped, it's absolutely not shaped like a bus / square like the Yishun one.
.
The only reason for LC to shape it like a brick had to be structural. Must be that Cannondale is using a higher grade carbon in order to get that teardrop shape without compromising strength or Weight

Send that link to big Wendy and ask her to confirm. Fitment

Scrap out the paint before reinstalling axle

Is it still in the thread? If it is not then the only way is brute force it out. Possibly the axle is bend?
Try loosening the set screw on the rear dropout before removing the rear axle

Cheap isn’t necessarily bad… isn’t that why we’re all here?

Hahahaha...spot on!  I still prefer shimano over Ltwoo groupsets

I would definitely think about getting a brand name bottom bracket like wheels manufacturing.  The BB gets the brunt if the torque and you want it to have some longevity

That was easy!

Do you have a link to the YT video you're referencing?

You mean how he faced the SL8 and voided the warranty of the frame? I trust that idiot as far as I can throw him.

Seems like you're going a bit too hard on mapdec when all he's doing is cleaning the excess paint off the BB shell.   Yes he does get a bit granular on shit sometimes but he's not an idiot and his channel offers good content overall

That sucks... you'd hope they'd at least check the bottom bracket threads prior to shipping out the frame.   

I understand now why most Western brands who manufacturer in China paint their frames in house ..

Could it be put in backwards? Have you tried turning it the other way?
The drive side bottom bracket on most bikes uses a left-hand thread, which means it tightens counterclockwise and loosens clockwise. This is called "English" threading, which is the common standard for bottom bracket shells. The non-drive side (left side) of the bottom bracket uses a right-hand thread, which tightens clockwise and removes counterclockwise.

With a colson on battery , it's more practical

Would a colson battery be a few AA batteries in a case like the Chinese group sets have?

Thanks makes, sense first time setting up di2. Seems of the two only the triangular part fits is that normal?
Yeah I didn't wind up using it because it didn't fit.. seems odd that they would include it when it wasn't really designed for that particular seat post on the lc17
