Thanks for this!  Out of curiosity, what size is your frame?  Hoping my 58 will finally ship tomorrow or Thursday ... fingers crossed ... not getting impatient at all ... nope! ... :P

  • For the installation of the rear Rival brake callipers you need 32mm Flat Mount bolts. 27mm are too short and 37mm are too long. I installed 37mm and used 5mm washers as a temporary solution.

Frame seize is 56cm, weighed around 980g on my kitchen scales. The wheelset (C67DB 45mm) weighs 1264g.

Strange. You should have had yours for long. U took the last one in stock and I was waiting for the new batch. According to Wendy, mine is already being painted...

Well I hope there aren't any delays in mine.

With that in mind I got a feeling someone else got the last one in that batch ;-)

I just got a text by Wendy from Lightcarbon. They will join Eurobike this year in Frankfurt, 3 to 7 July 2024.
It's great chance to friends from Europe to have a closely look on their product.

Hi everyone, I'm considering buying the LCR017 but still uncertain about the color, has anyone seen what white chameleon looks like in real life ?  (Chameleon 7207 on Lightcarbon website)

Definitely get a chameleon color over the plain color

Same advice as dinorello. Get a chameleon color because of the clear coat and better paint protection because of that.

I've not seen the chameleon white yet.

I haven't seen the color in person, but there's a video on YouTube showing the color  LCB 7207;

Yup, finally shipped last Thursday. If I'm deciphering the China Post updates correctly, it's been on 2 planes so far ... but I expect it won't get here until the end of next week at the earliest.  Don't worry, I'll be irrationally stalking the tracking information incessantly with great diligence until it arrives! :P

Ahahah I'll ask her tomorrow then about mine.
Still annoyed about having chosen the basic colour ahaha. In any case judging by the comments I should have painted it here in a local shop ahah.

Keep us updated

The paint look and quality in general is good and looks awesome. It is just the missing clear coat.

The best would be to clear coat it DIY when you have the possibility for that.

Or order as raw and get it to a local painter. But this will be mich more expensive. At least at my location.

I'm sure you'll still love the bike when it is build  :D

Email lite carbon directly and ask them for additional spacers .The rubber parts are for the battery on the di2 system that fits in the seat post
