@WhityWhite
-Have to ask about the "middle spacer with what seems to be cable guide into a ACR 55 headset" on the stem photo. What is that, a stem piece (which one?)
Thanx,
Chris

as the monocockpits unfortunately didn't fit me in terms of size, I asked for a separate stem. That's why I got this part.

Have you also had this gap reported by some in the head tube (upper bearing and headset)? Thank you for your contribution. ;)

It actually looks good on my bike and I don't have any gaps - and I haven't even finalized everything yet.
I have a different handlebar because the handlebar stem units didn't fit me in terms of dimensions, but that has nothing to do with the gap...

I have also assembled the bike so far and so far I am very satisfied.
I'm having my fork shortened by a friend in the next few days.

I'll probably be able to show you the finished build by the beginning of next week at the latest :-)

You can't use a spider based PM on shimano road cranks. You will have to get a left crankarm (4iiii or stages or...) with powermeter. Or replace the entire crank...

Thank you!

I'd just hate to swap the ultegra lettering for PES :D

I'm curious when the pedals will be released and which cleats they will be compatible with.

I don't think you can use another crank since the crank-powermeter interface is unique . That's why I ordered the separate powermeter with the 3-bolt interface instead, even if it was the same price.

But it is not compatible with a shimano ultegra crank? Or am I on the tube??? It somehow only says something about the chainrings oO

If so which PM would be the right one for an ultegra 12 speed crank?

I ordered the SC-R52D (with handlebars) a month or so ago. Shipped but not arrived yet so can't comment on the quality. Communication with Justin from Speeder was quick and clear though.

how much did you pay, if you don't mind me asking?  :)

Some newest photos of LCR017-D with T47,
weight A, the weight of only frame is about 910g.

Of course I'm not sure. It's my damn kitchen scales.  ;D

But since the manufacturer specifies 910 g, it should be about right.

54 / Superlight.

The bike looks like a weapon!
Very nice bike!

Here are a few pictures.

I weighed the frame and fork on the kitchen scales ;-)

Frame: 911 g
Fork (uncut): 436 g

I think these are outstanding values. Especially as the whole thing has been painted.


Also attached are the desired detailed pictures.

Here is my work-in-progress. Frame, handlebar and wheels are from LC.
For the decal, I simply provided the font and there is a little graphic on the headtube where I used simple online tools to reduce a picture to black and white and then made the background transparent.

I am very happy with the build quality so far.
And the communication with LC during the whole process was really, really great!

puhhhh - frame looks good, but copying a brand and then misspelling it (extra or not) is a bit like buying fake soccer shirts on vacation in Turkey and finding that everyone laughs at you because the club is misspelled.

Aaaabut - maybe I'm wrong and the joke is on you! ;-)

The frame itself looks good and I hope you enjoy it! :-)

Last question on the decals … did you send them to them, or just provide pdf/eps files?  Thinking about something fun through them and curious about your experience on that tip.

Thanks in advance!

I used to work as a media designer and was able to prepare the design professionally and accurately and make it available. I also provided the decals as a separate vector file.

Okay okay... A little spoiler.

But more really only after assembly.
Bottom bracket and wheels are still on the way  :D

my LCR017 arrived yesterday.
With custom paintwork.

First impression:
Wow.
Simply wow.

As soon as the bike is assembled, I'll put this beauty perfectly in scene and present it to you ;-)
