Re: New Light Carbon LCSF980 XC bike  

Ok, finally got it built up and running (wheels were stuck in US customs for like 9 days).

I've never mountain biked before (If I don't count the Trek 930 I had when I was like 12 years old in the 90s that's I'd use on mostly smooth hiking paths, I've never ridden any technical stuff really save a couple times of doing cyclocross and some class 4 roads on my gravel bike that I'd usually have to hike-a-bike on) so I don't really have any worthwhile input other than the bike is fun.
There's a very good trail system about 0.5 mile from my house (which is why I built a MTB...I figured I was wasting opportunity and I get bored of gravel biking in the late summer) with a bunch of green, blue and black trails.
I just rode about 9 miles on dirt roads to see if the bike would fall apart. I was surprised at how slow pedaling a long on a MTB is (the tires I got for it probably are super slow rolling since I went with a really aggressive tread and super sticky compound), also shocked at how fast I could descend poor dirt roads, it just felt immediately natural to bomb over every feature I have to take caution with on my gravel bike. 
Rode it up to the trail system, played around with what sort of rocks I could plow over and was surprised again at just how good modern suspension is...rocks that were proud of the road surface about 4 inches I could just run right into at speed and hardly feel anything.  Took it on a green trail that had a ton of roots, rocks and switch backs, was a ton of fun on uphill rooty/rocky sections.

Re: Thinkrider X2 In Germany a used Flux S usually comes in cheaper. U can get spare parts online.

GP Lama tested them okay I believe, but I would follow Serge's advise.

Re: New Frame Winow Sports WR054 I have just taken delivery of this frameset, and must say so far, I am impressed. In the end I ordered UD Glossy. So bare carbon with a coat of glossy lacquer. My frame is in size Small.

Frame, size Small, front and rear derailleur hanger attached - 1168 g
Fork - 527 g
Seatpost - 265 g
Handlebar 380/110mm - 352 g
Thru axels - 93 g

I’m just waiting on a new 12 speed Ultegra group set, and will look to get it built as soon as possible. The build will come in at just under 8kgs with the 1600g wheel set I am currently using. For next seasons races, I am looking at wheels along the lines of CRW, Magene, Farsport, No6 etc. This will take the bike to approx 7.7kg, less if I decide to run 1x, which I would be more than happy with!

Also for anyone wondering about geometry. In size small (not looked at other sizes), it is ‘extremely’ similar to a Canyon Aeroad XS. Again for me this is great, knowing that geometry fits me well.

Service from Kitty through the process has been great. Especially with me changing my mind halfway through the buying process, and my constant questions!

Will keep you updated once the build is done.

Kind Regards,

Mikey.

Re: Thinkrider PP5 power meter claimed accuracy is just irrelevant, especially for this class of product

No, it's not a joke, and yes, I'm a bit of a riding position expert. When I see that seat height and the spacer height, I figure the person must be around 180cm tall. Also, it's forbidden to use more than 4cm of spacer. Anyway, that's just advice; I'm not the one riding that! :o

dude just shut up. you haven't even seen the man who's riding this bike and you're out here saying their bike is wrong size.
And are you the UCI now? saying it's "forbidden" to use more than 4cm spacer?? what a joke!
Shut up and just ride your fake Ostro!

Re: Ltwoo or Shimano? Stick with Shimano if you want reliability.

Is there any news on this? The year is almost over and I still can't find any further information about the group 😬
It's in the final stages of preparation. Some OE brands in China have already received final samples for testing. Expect to see it on some new bikes or independent reviews soon.
