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

Post other photo, I don't understand where that hole is, in mine I don't found

I think it is the front derallieur cable hole?!

It looks like the cable "worked" there, I hope that Lightcarbon doesn't use the "assembly error" argument...

Mine is this

Huh this is weird the LightCarbon website doesn’t show a hole below the FD on the side of the frame only the back but on other people’s frame shots it’s clearly there

Here some extra pictures.

Update from LightCarbon: They responded requesting more info on the bike. I will let everyone know when I have more updates

Might be because putting a 5mm hole there causes catastrophic failure?  My frame has the hole for the FD behind and lower on the seat post as it's pictured on LC's website.  A bit a hassle dealing with the wire but preferred over weakening the frame

You wouldn’t think that area would have a high amount of stress otherwise it would be a stronger shape on most bikes, but that comes down to a lot of different factors. LightCarbon are building my frame at the moment, kinda wondering if I should hit them up and show them this post and request no hole (running wheel top so I don’t need it anyway).

Anyone else with holed frames seeing issues? Or better durability
