This is the best looking chiner frame imo, really modern lines.

anyone save the geometry chart/ingo?  the links to the from are down right now and I am super curious.

I will be buying or building a park bike for the wife.. leaning towards building because she is only 115 pounds and low/mid level slack 160-170mm travel compete bikes are all pretty over built for her and what she likes to ride.    also looking at the ICAN p9 with offset chock mounts to slacken it up a bit more

Just got this email from "Gavin" at LightCarbon

Hi Ray,

Thanks for your reply.

As I check your website, it seems that you are not doing bike business.
LCFS947 is our 2021 new model full suspension enduro frame. This model is
designed to sell to OE clients only.
If you just want one frame for personal use, I'm afraid we can not supply.
Hope you can kindly understand.

You can check our website, to see if there are some other models be your
interest. Thanks.

Best regards,
Gavin Woo | Sales Manager

Well that's disappointing

[RobertRinAustin]

Wonder if they'd do a group buy?

Thats a shame, looked like a nice enduro frame

I have bought a 4 direct from China bikes (gravel bikes and one rigid 29er)... gets confusing several "brands" are often the same company and the companies are not actually the manufacturer... I dont know how it all works out but so far I have seen the same frames from several "brands" so hopefully this one ends up being the same deal.   

I want one of these in the largest size for myself and something for the wife in small FM-M931/FS831 (same frame very similar to the SC Hightower) or just another one of these. 

These catalog frames have really come a long long way vs last year!!  last time I looked I found some 150mm travel bikes but all short reach, crazy low stack and steep HTA.... long legged modern XC bikes or very old school like my 2006 Cannondale Gemini but in 29er

I was able to order an LCFS947 in early September when it was still listed on both the LightCarbon and YishunBike sites. They quoted me two months lead time then but that's been extended to three months now. Once I receive it I can share pictures but it looks like if you haven't ordered one already they're not selling any more pre-orders.

I'm curious if any others in this thread who ordered early this fall have received a frame yet or have all orders been delayed til sometime in December like mine?

They've taken it down too. Assume they couldn't make minimum order numbers.

Interestingly, they list a new 2021 LightCarbon gravel frame without any details.

I'll be curious to see what that's like, if it appears.

  the frame got bought over by a brand(contracted? Something like that). They're being asked to remove it from being offered.

Yep same with mine. End of December to be precise. I got an image of a complete build, it looks pretty sweet. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to repost it though.

We won't tell anyone if you post an image of the finished bike.
