Hi there, pleasure to be in this forum! :-)

So, I figured I need a 5th bike and decided to build one myself. :-)

Regarding the LCR017-D frame size:

I am 178 cm tall with an 87 cm inseam.
Would you LightCarbon pros recommend a size 54 or 56?

I ride all my Canyon bikes in a 54 (S), since it suits my neck problems better. But I'm a bit unsure how the LCR017 fits in a size 54.

Any comments are appreciated—and thanks in advance!

Over the last days I built the bike up bit by bit.
The wheels arrived today so I did a quick dry fit. Overall I have to say the geometry seems to fit me quite well, at least in a static position. With the 90mm stem length, as opposed to 120mm I have on my current bike, it feels quite a bit more relaxed.
This feeling matches what I hoped to get, from comparing the geometry and the measurements with my current ride, which is nice.

I mentioned it before, but I love the way the paintjob came out - the glossy chalk white with the contrast of the matte chamaeleon paint is a dream.

Not sure if I will be able to do a maiden ride this year, but I was able to make fairly good progress in the build so far. Routing the four cables through the handlebars was quite the hassle, especially knowing i would have to do it at least once more after cutting the fork steerer tube to length ...

Rose XLITE 06 style. Love it! Very seksy
