yesterday I could try a little and left me very surprised with the performance of this bike, very agile and very good performance on the climbs is as in the downhill. I am very happy with this frame
glad to see someone thinks the same as me :)

Is it possible to run the right hand rear shift cable on the left side of the frame for internal cabeling?

Yup, the shifter cables are free floating in the tubes, so you can configure them internally as you like.

Hola amigos, ya he podido probar intensivamente la bici y solo puedo decir que cada me gusta mas como funciona es una maravilla como baja por senderos y zonas tecnicas, pero también en la subidas es muy rígida y no molesta nada al pedalear.

el funcionamiento de la horquilla magura elect es espectacular, el sistema inteligente de bloqueo funciona muy muy bien.

Pay attention to the sock size.

For LCFS904, 165x40 is required. The frame has been designed for the new Sram Deluxe rear shock.

Between 165x40 and 165x38 you lose 5mm of rear travel.
This new frame is really enduroed compared to the LCFS902. Head angle is 67° with 100mm fork and wheel base is huge, these are extreme values for XCO and surely a frame meant to be ridden very aggressively, not for casual biker...

It's showing 100mm travel, while wheelbase is 2-3cm longer than the 902. Its funny that they copy other brands while mixing enduro/xc designs. The worst part is the brake cable routing, it does not makes sense for me.

If they are going to ignore patents, why don't they just copy everything.

Typically people who are 5'-8" with a 30" inseam would ride a med (17") frame.

I pilled the trigger on the cs-821 17.5 frame from peter in the end. All I can say is WOW, What a bike. I think its been mentioned before but the hardware on this is another level compared to my old china full sus. This has a shorter chain stay and slacker head angle than my last frame and its made such a big difference, I find myself hammering on the downhills now and really flicking it around corners. The power transfer to the rear is 10 times better on the ups, even with shock fully open!!

As far as the build went, it couldn't have been smoother, I picked the frame up at 6pm friday night and took it for its first spin around 10am the next morning. The bearings/bolts were all nice and tight and the cable routing was a piece of cake with draw throughs in place.

If anyone has any questions about this frame just hit me up, I'd be happy to help.

Looks like a really nice build, thanks for posting a few pics.
