My mechanic is building up my LCG071D LightCarbon gravel bike and having issues trying to figure out seatpost wedge. Any tips, instructions please?
TIA, Phil
NVM. He figured it out. I understand its a bit fidgety.
Some pics of where it's currently at. Going with 1x, SRAM GX EAGLE AXS derailleur, Alugear 44t oval purple chainring. Cassette is 10-50. Sram Force brakes, shifters.
Not sure if this is allowed mods but I feel I need to give my guy credit. Bikebuildz on instagram
I have the same frame on order. Just patiently waiting for it to arrive to build it up as LightCarbon already sent the wheels and I have the rest of the parts sitting on the shelf. Any tips from your mechanic on the seat post wedge? Y

Don't know if his text reply to me asking about will really help, but here's his response:
"Its similar to sl5 tarmac I had..I guess trick is just having at an angle that it doesn't fall down the tube"
And congrats on your new bike, LC did same w me, wheels came first and about two weeks later I received the frame.

Great bike! Was it possible to fit 44T chainring? on their site they state 42t would be max..!?
I actually have a 44t oval which at its largest diameter is probably closer to a 46, and yes.. it fits.
Excuse the funky looking cranks, its protective tape that's scuffed up.
