Re: Lightcarbon: LCR018-D (endurance all-road)
As this thread gets longer and longer there are many questions that come over and over again. I made a AI-summary based on the full content. Hope that is helpful. If you consider it spammy, than I will also delete it, but it's hard to navigate 34 pages already, and also hard to link back to the answers  Pros
Cons
Key Specs
FAQs Q: What is the delivery time for the LCR018-D? A: 52 cm available from August 2025, 54/56 cm from September, 58 cm from October–December 2025. Custom paint adds 2–4 weeks. Shipping to Europe/US takes 2–3 weeks. References: #80770, #82579, #84147, #89735, #94428 Q: What is the maximum tire clearance? A: Officially 38C, but some users report fitting 40 mm tires (e.g., Wolfpack Gravel Superspeed) with tight clearance. Actual fit depends on rim width and tire brand. References: #86577, #88166, #90644, #93865, #93972 Q: Is the frame UDH compatible? A: Yes, it uses a "mini UDH" hanger that is lighter but functionally identical to standard UDH. Standard UDH hangers can also be installed. References: #86137, #89638, #93324, #94270 Q: What is the maximum chainring size for 1x setups? A: SRAM up to 54T (45 mm chainline). Shimano up to 42T. Larger chainrings require chainline adjustments. References: #87210, #88339, #88440, #89637 Q: Does the frame have internal storage? A: Yes, an optional downtube storage compartment is available, free for early orders (includes storage bag). References: #80788, #84475, #84625, #84664 Q: What bottom bracket standard does it use? A: T47 (85.5 mm shell width), compatible with Shimano 24 mm, SRAM DUB, and other cranksets with adapters. References: #90220, #93826, #93845, #93934 Q: What handlebar options are available? A: Integrated HBR17 handlebar with stem lengths from 80–130 mm and widths from 360–420 mm. Rise is 8 mm, reach is short for a modern fit. References: #84621, #86835, #91712, #93808 Q: Is custom paint available? A: Yes, custom paint jobs start around $120 for simple designs and go up to $200+ for complex schemes (e.g., Eurobike demo). Decals cost extra. References: #82643, #90228, #91263, #94467 Q: What is the frame weight? A: Approximately 1000 g for size 52 (without storage door), fork ~430 g, handlebar ~300 g (380×80 mm). Total frameset around 2.1 kg. References: #92694, #93422, #93480, #94746 Q: How does the geometry compare to other bikes? A: Similar to Enve Fray, Cervelo Caledonia, Canyon Endurace, and BMC Roadmachine — endurance-focused with higher stack and moderate reach.

Re: Seraph Bikes Superlight 836g X68 - Alternative to SL8 Fakes?
Finally completed my bike.
Total weight is 6,65kg complete Haven't done a proper ride yet, but the front section is significant softer than the one on my SWORKS SL6 w. a ZIPP carbon stem and 3t carbon handlebar. The bottom bracket section is also not as stiff as the SL6, but not that drastic. The fork is the heavier one (406g), the color matching is not perfect, but decent.    October 23, 2025, 01:54:39 AM |
