Lightcarbon: New LCR017-D (or Yishun R1058-D)

[Dark17]

Okay okay... A little spoiler.

But more really only after assembly.
Bottom bracket and wheels are still on the way 

That looks pretty rad. Now I am really interested to get it as my second bike now lol. Gotta use that if I want to do steep and/or long climbs

Can't stop thinking about that boxed up looking down tube.

Looks good!

If not to late, can you take pics on headset bearing seats, BB-area, brake mount area etc, please.

Cheers!

Last question on the decals … did you send them to them, or just provide pdf/eps files?  Thinking about something fun through them and curious about your experience on that tip.

Thanks in advance!

I used to work as a media designer and was able to prepare the design professionally and accurately and make it available. I also provided the decals as a separate vector file.

Anyone else find resemblance with the  CC SuperSix Evo Hi-Mod II?

Yeah the only difference is one is curvy and aero and the other is more boxy and not so aero looking

Here is my work-in-progress. Frame, handlebar and wheels are from LC.
For the decal, I simply provided the font and there is a little graphic on the headtube where I used simple online tools to reduce a picture to black and white and then made the background transparent.

I am very happy with the build quality so far.
And the communication with LC during the whole process was really, really great!

My only reservation about this frame is the seemingly little amount of material in the bb area. Just as someone who does sprints once a week, makes me curious to try it to compare against something I know is rigid in the bb.

Looks nice but any reason you went for a copy of the standard byke logo? Just seems a little weird as someone who just takes a quick look at the frame and sees a branding that doesn't belong on the frame.

I guess its more a joke regarding the "standert" frames, which is just a other "hipster" frame brand from Berlin, Germany. I think that joke works quite well here, as he also used the same font and a similar logo.

@joegal got me!
I am not a very creative person but I thought it is standard to have a logo on the down tube and since I couldn't think of a fancy name myself, I ended up with the word itself - and since I like the looks of Standert and Helvetica is a classic font, I snickered a little bit and used it.

Fair. Seems like a pretty standard route to take. Hoho

puhhhh - frame looks good, but copying a brand and then misspelling it (extra or not) is a bit like buying fake soccer shirts on vacation in Turkey and finding that everyone laughs at you because the club is misspelled.

Aaaabut - maybe I'm wrong and the joke is on you! ;-)

The frame itself looks good and I hope you enjoy it! :-)
