@Kungie, is there more information about this new LightCarbon frame somewhere? I've used the search function here but didn't find anything. Thank you.

They showed a sneakpeak in this interview on youtube: https://youtu.be/RsAlqKrbaks?t=1610

@Samuel - I've seen your bike, very nice build. You've chosen XPLR, but what crank set did you use?

The new LightCarbon frame has no own thread yet, so it fits in here as well IMHO.

Just saw the LIGHTCARBON… amazing… it is pretty much the answer to the SEKA Gravel. I will buy it, it looks phenomenal.

The cranks are from AliExpress, the 320g ones whose price varies from 160 to 250€ depending on… I dunno. It has no brand. I bought it for 150€ so quite a bargain, right now it is at 250€ not so much of a bargain. The deciding factor was that it is either 8 BOLTS or 3 BOLTS so compatible with SRAM Style direct mounts unlike most carbon crank arms which are Easton. 320g is the same weight as the SRAM RED pretty much for half the price (if paid 150) the finish isn’t top notch though, TBH…

Curious about the LC frame, as it will be a direct competitor of our new aero gravel frame :).

I’m expecting a lot of rapid developments in this area in 2026 actually.

It is the « CRUZBIKE » crank arms 320g with 24mm Ti spindle. Got them for 150€ when price was low & Alie promos. Right now sitting at 260€ it is NOT worth it…!! Finish is meh, not very clean, not very precise.

BTW New Aero Gravel specific Integrated Handlebars confirmed for LIGHTCARBON’s incoming Aero Gravel Frame, 50mm tire clearance too
