Thoughts/experience with LightCarbon LCR0S/LCRXS-D frame?
« on: August 30, 2023, 02:58:34 AM »
Thinking to grab one of these and build it up. Has anyone had experience with this frame?

It’s so clearly a LARP of an aero bike.

No personal experience with this, but it is sold by a german wheel brand as their inhouse frame. Just as a input: https://leezebikestore.de/products/leeze-aero-one

Also thinking about buying this one. Any thoughts would be much appreciated from experienced users of this frame. Well if this is good enough to be tagged as $7.5k then I think it's pretty good.

I can't say anything about this frame but I have purchased 8 or 9 frames (gravel, full suspension and hard tail mtbs) from them and they have always been great products and the company is easy to deal with.  If the specs and geometry fit you needs you should have no reservations about purchasing it.

Seems like it is a popular frame. Anyone have actual experience with it? Curious about compliance/comfort more than anything, as in is it the most uncomfortable frame ever? Or is it somewhat compliant? I would expect it to be stiff, just curious how stiff we talking.

In this video, the German GCN channel uses the frame.

You can find 2 short tests of the Myvelo.

What i understand is a sporty bike, probably with comfort not as refined as a good big company. Nothing new under the sun of generic frames ^^

Yep agree mate. Trying to keep this build as bargain as possible and since the LCR017 looks like a$$ now and the yishun frames cost twice as much and need to wait 3 months, I'm gonna roll with this el classico frame, instead. Just sent them my final order.

Rolling with a their hbr12 36cm bar with a few different stems to get comfy. Gonna go 105 50-34 cranks, ultegra 11-34 cassette (don't think chinese metal components are up to standard yet) and ltwoo er9 rest of group (grab it in a month or so once they get the rest of whatever issues they have sorted out). Got a set of farsports 58mm kaze wheels with dt350 i'll throw on. And just waiting for bb86 to come in stock from hambini and i'll pick up one of those for this build.

Can't go wrong!!!

My only reservation is the slack 72degrees head angle...
