Lightcarbon: LCR018-D (endurance all-road)

[gribs]

That's what I thought. A pain for right / front users.
Centre routing would have been the most useful solution

It's the same way round on the LCR017 and I'd seen it mentioned as a problem, but I just crossed the brake lines over in the stem without any bother.

thanks @Jantunes for the photos! Keep us updated on the build!

How is the storage compartment lid? Is it secure and easy to latch and unlatch?

heavy! ahah. yes it's easy and it fits in pretty snug.

Anyone know when they are going to add the frame details officially up on the website? Surprised with frames starting to land that it hasn't been listed with a similar write-up as the LCR-017D showing the frame details, cable routing schematics, BB details, etc.

Yup! I'm also surprised that they haven't put the 018D on their website along with the other bike frames. Right now it seems more like a pre-order in secrecy kinda phase.

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

It is very nice!! I am figuring out which color I will go for, UD matte finish is one option, I was wondering if you are planning to put some decals or your frame or you keep it plain as it is. I am looking for some idea (like decals) to make it less plain.

I think black and bit of white decals on bike goes a long way, maybe boring, but in my eyes you cant go wrong with black and white.
This is my current Hong-fu UDmatt bike and Iam planing to build Light carbon basically the same way and color scheme

If you have any existing wheels and tyres, would you be able to see what the absolute maximum is please.
In interested in seeing if 42mm wide wheels will fit.

Many thanks

I have ordered UD mate too and with decal colour "PANTONE 332C"/"Celeste Blue" so that it matches the same decal colour on ryet 3d printed saddle. Decal design on frame is very minimalistic with only lightcarbon logo on the front and rear. Lightcarbon wording is only presented on handlebar and on fork but not on down tube.

How much more do the decals cost?

[Picograms]

If you want only a small decal i think they include it in the price of the paintjob

Wendy quoted me 35 per Color. I've added 2 big decals on the downtube, smaller on the top, head and forks in 2 colors for a total of 70

I have paid 135$ for UD black made and a small single colour decal .

Strange that different sales reps are giving us a different quotes for paint jobs.

I paid $856 for UD matte (standard color) and no decals, in size 58cm. Including one extra hanger, Shimano BB, and shipping to northern Europe.

Lightcarbon sells Shimano parts as well? 😮

Seeing as you (too) live in Northern Europe, I look forward to hearing about how high the tax/customs fee will be. Also interested in which value of the goods LC indicate on the package.

No, to be clear, they sell a bottom bracket that is compatible with Shimano. Not Shimano branded.

I assume there will be no taxes, as the shipping is duty free. I have previously bought wheels from China with such shipping and there was no added taxes or custom fees (to Sweden).
