Quote from Wendy "The biggest chainring for a 1x group set: if the CL value is greater than 45mm, the chainring can be more than 42T, like CL 47mm, the max chainring can be 54T"

Looking at the size chart you will need a size 50 frame. A 40 mm tire on a 20-25 mm width rim should fit, but without frames delivered for people to test i would not bank on anything wider than that.

And what size would you recommend if I'm 1.68m tall with a 78cm inside leg and ride a Canyon Aeroad in size XS, which fits perfectly.

I am 169cm and leaning towards the 50cm frame for the LCR018.

What I did was take the current stack of my bike + the spacers. Then took the reach + length of the stem + bar reach to get a rough idea of what I currently. Current reach of 536mm and stack of 553mm. Compared to the LCR018 with what I wanted for my next bike, slightly longer and higher. That means the 50 frame, 100mm stem, 20mm spacer and the HBR17 bars will get me there. May not be perfect, but I think it is a good way to get an idea of what size you will want. Keep in mind the HBR17 have an 8mm rise, so I think that would act like an 8mm spacer (someone correct me, if i am wrong).

That being said, I have a pre-purchase bike fit coming up next month to help me confirm everything before I order. To be on the safe side.

Not exactly because the lift of the handlebar is verticale (90°) whereas the spacer is the head tube angle (72°).

Excellent! Congratulations and thanks for the photo.
Look forward to more updates. 
Is that raw carbon finish or is it painted black?

Please :D : Weight each part and more pictures of outside / inside. Could you take a picture from the front to  have an idea of the surface in contact with the front wind ?

Thanks a lot :).

It's the base UD matte finish (no additional cost).

990g is the weight of the frame w/o the metal storage cover.
frame seems very sturdy on the frontal area, more than the BB area (but i'm by no means a carbon expert)
fork seems also robust.
love the handlebars design, construction seems ok.
saddle looks comfy, very well finished. can't wait to take it for a ride.

Thanks Jantunes for photos :), looks pretty awesome, everything looks pretty clean and finished, that is what I like to see :).
Good luck with new bike, I have one in simple UDmatt coming too, looking forward to it.

thank you. regarding the finishes, seems pretty flush. it appears they faced the contact areas. the photo where we see internally the "eagle eye", it's the one area that seems not so clean. any reason to worry about it?
