Title: Lightcycling Surge RF04 38mm Clearance Aero Race Frame (Mondince FM106)
Post by: lucasv on August 16, 2026, 01:34:11 AM

Was surprised to see no threads about this so far.

38mm clearance, 980g for size 52, almost certainly $800 for the frameset including shipping and fees. Geo almost identical to Madone gen 7, optional downtube storage, UDH, T47. Looks incredible to me considering the Lightcarbon LCR020 price increase.

Looks like an open mold that also sells from Mondince under the name FM106, interestingly listed with 40mm clearance here.

Same frame as the Long Teng RD301-D. There is a thread on it.

Definitely needs a 0 setback seatpost.

Other than that, it’s interesting.

This is aero as much as my grandmother is a bicycle.

I trust you only if you post the wind tunnel test of your grandmother 😉.
