I suspect Lambda is paying retail and marking them up, relying on suckers. I'm guessing their lead time is LC's lead time+. I suspect they hold zero inventory. I suspect they plan to order the LC colorway sans downtube logis, which they'll apply.

I think LC should refuse their orders.

This picture is so foul: implicating windtunnel testing, but its just an AI generate picture. Should be illegal

i wonder if that clothing company knows they are using their name in their ai slop, the frame is different in that image as well

Might order a second fork, just in case I decide I want a higher stack later...or I might not order it.

Yeah, I wish I could get a fork from LC without the silly lobes on the dropouts. Maybe I should buy an AI slop fork!

Are there others here who are experiencing a delay of 20/30 days compared to the original information provided when ordering? And payed **

I paid for a size 54 frame on 11/26 and was told 30 to 40 days for production then 15 for shipping. Still waiting

I paid for the frame size 56 on October 20th and it arrived on Friday. Everything looks fine, the paint quality is excellent, I'm waiting for the remaining components.

I paid for a size 54 frame on 11/18 and was told 20 days for production and 25 days for the custom paint job. Got notified last week that they need 2 more weeks to get the frame ready (issues with cold weather and painting). Also ordered the RD923-50C wheels from LC at the same time. They were shipped from China to the Netherlands on the 24th of December and received them today.

I'll probably order their 2026 aero bike and get this colour combination, but silver into raw carbon.

Looks really good

I received my size 52 on 1/9, ordered 11/19. Around 3 weeks shipping to Europe.

Hi !

Do all of you guys have bought a frame for 600$ ?

Do you know which Garmin hanger is possible to mount on the HB17 ?

Thanks !
