Lightcarbon: LCR018-D (endurance all-road)

Anyone a link to plugs for the unused wholes in the frame if AXS is used, derailleur and front derailleur? Ordered two kinds, both don't fit, so a proven solution would really help me ... Thanks!

Didn't you get them with the frame from LC?

[szorek]

I paid for my order on July 1, and the delivery times provided by LC are:
5-6 weeks frame construction
3-4 weeks painting

Last week, I received a message saying that the frame is in the final stage of painting.
I hope it will be shipped soon

No. And I know many others who have not. (Actually, I do not know anyone who got them from LC. You?)

My frame came with plugs and grommets. These are my leftovers after assembly. I got 3 of the small grommets, 2 of which are on the bike, and 3 of the plugs, 1 of which is on the bike.

I received my frame on June 30, 2026 (ordered April 9).

[STEGPB]

Ah, lucky you. Could you maybe measure the diameter for me?

My frame came with all the grommet/plugs too.

Top cap of the plug is 10.5 mm and narrowest part of the plug is 7 mm. I have one in my unused mechanical cable hole. But it may be too large for the smaller electronic cable holes for the front and rear mechs. I did not try them on those holes as I run Shimano di2 cables.

P.S. 9 Sept 26 I cleaned the bike today and measured the plug I that used for the larger of the two front derailleur holes on the seat tube. The cap on that one is 9mm in diameter and stalk is 7mm.

Hi LCR-Community! I have ready the hole thread about this frame. Many thanks for all these information I can find here. Maybe someone can help me. I'm struggling with myself about the frame color. so many choices are not always good. So I have a question about the raw carbon look with glossy finish. Is it possible to see the carbon pattern on all parts or look it mostly black? On the most photos the painting reflects the light to much, so I can not see.

Many thanks in advance!

UD gloss Will show Carbon, you can select a tainted clear coat for similar carbon see through but even but even better/deeper IMHO

I have the raw carbon with glossy finish, and on my frame it is mostly black with some areas where you can see the carbon weave.  I think that it is the best looking frame that I currently own.

That is mine. You can see Carbon in some areas, however I'd you're expecting something like a Time then you would be disappointed.  I really like the finish though and at the time I ordered it was effectively a no cost option!

Front 160 without adapter, according to LightCarbon website, right?

Shimano comes with adapter you can turn depending on 160 or 140 rotors. Rear needed adapter for 160.

Now mine is on the trainer. I have more creaking there than outside. And it is the seatpost as most go away when I stand

The clear gloss finish is very nice. What size is this frame?
Did you request the lightcarbon sticker, or is it the default?

Mine is 58cm.
Yes had to pay for the decals - I originally wanted the mirror finish, however these go on top of the lacquer so went for these that are underneath the gloss.
