LightCarbon LCM908

[Nicoloc]

Hi guys
Did one of you tryed the lightcarbon LCM908?
Geometry looks to be "modern" (boost and head angle <70°).
Frame price is 375$ and shipping cost at 116 with XDB.
That put the overall cost to the lowest i've seen after searching the different conpanies.
The only thing, is i haven't found any feedback on the frame and almost nothing on the supplier.
did you ever purchase from them?
What was the quality like?
thanks for your input helping me to choose my new 29er frame (switching from my old 26")

It looks good and modern indeed.
Just maybe the front derailleur routing looks a bit unusual.

For all of us, do not hesitate, go ahead and be the first !

Hi All
I receivefd my frame. 
Few question to the forum prior I start the assembly:
    Is there a specific grease to apply for the bottom bracket / frame
     Is there a specific grease to use for the integrated head set / frame
    How shoul I route my cables hoses :above or bellow the bottom bracket.


I will post picture and full configuration when I'll have my computer back running again.
Frame is beautifull black and red (I asked for the same design as the BXT)
Thx for your help

I used to buy different greases at my initial build.

Not anymore  I use the Motorex the yellow one for everything.
And a marine grease(tick and sticky blue), on the headset.

I routed over the BB on almost all bikes I built.

This.

I don't understand why so many of the china frames have under bb routing especially with dual suspension frames. I would always choose over bb than under bb if that was the only difference between two frames.

hi guys
Here are some pics in attachement

[Nicoloc]

some of my desapointment regarding the bike  :
All inserts are really cheap.
And if you plan to use the frame in a 2x configuration, you will find that the front derailleur fixation is very weak with a lot of play.
I've benn added some Teflon tape to compensate.

also to mention that i had to change the stem as the insert were torn...

So frame is nice but insert are extremly fragile

My frame arrived a few days ago. For now I’m building his brother lcfs713. The details in the frame are well finished, and everything is ok. A little scratches in the headtube, I hope nothing to worry.
In the next months I will to build this!

[Nicoloc]

Nice
Be carefull with the inserts, else it's quite nice to ride

[GreyCactus]

Nicoloc any new about this bike? 
How do you feel the geometry?
