2 michaeldepeza:
I see pic of RxR chinese wheelset even though it's not on the list. So, DON'T. EVAR.
Used this 29" shit on my carbon rigid mtb to run roads,

If you're going to use Chinese wheelsets get a decent set from light-bicycle , or ican or yoleo or nextie.  I have light bicycle built wheels on XC bike, Road bike and Gravel bike, they are very well built very strong wheels, but they cost about 700-900 a set .  My XC are hope pro2 evo hubs and dt swiss spokes and the road/gravel are novatect 791/792 hubs with pillar 1420 spokes.  From experience the $300-500 sets are sketchy as hell. 
2025 SPOT RYVE 115   w/Elite wheels(XC)
2023  Chasing Wind w/ elite wheels (Gravel)
2026 SPCYCLE 053D 32C Road bike w/ Light bicycle wheels (road)

Hey Bro and Guys im trying to choose ideal size....my present bike matched to this frame would put me in 19" frame choice however i initially was gonna order the 20.5 frame...my thinking now is that's too large as my Trek Superfly was extra large at 21"...a 2012 model....

i'm 5'10"
I'm 6' with short legs and could JUST fit the 150 mm Reverb B, the hose does a very sharp corner though. Would not work if it was a bowden...
I have a 19" frame, I think it fits me perfectly.

Hey Guys,

So My Frame is done. just to get it shipped out now....My Country is still under lockdowns due to COVID19 so im gonna have enough time to build this baby before her unveiling and unleashing on my Trail Network.....

So Been through the chats regarding this frame....Wendy told me ill have to get all my shock mounting hardware online...



 
Question -Where can i buy a proper fit of shock hardware?
               
              -Which travel is the ideal one for rear shock?

i just assumed that you were supposed to pick the 30x8mm set from that amazon link. i'll measure my frame when it arrives and report back.


Hey man...did you get through with your shock bushing issue and how far along are you on build?

Hey guys is it just me or are others unable to get pg 12 to load?

I just have to say that the LCFS958 is still a great bike, love riding it. Maybe in todays tounge its more downcountry than trail, with 130/140 mm travel (?) But it climbs well, descends well, is easy to handle quite light, a great bike :-)

And after the issues with the AM831 I must say that Light Carbon frames fell very thought through and well made.
