Re: Lightcarbon: LCR018-D (endurance all-road) 990g is the weight of the frame w/o the metal storage cover.
frame seems very sturdy on the frontal area, more than the BB area (but i'm by no means a carbon expert)
fork seems also robust.
love the handlebars design, construction seems ok.
saddle looks comfy, very well finished. can't wait to take it for a ride.

How much more do the decals cost?
Wendy quoted me 35 per Color. I’ve added 2 big decals on the downtube, smaller on the top, head and forks in 2 colors for a total of 70

Re: Lightcarbon: LCR018-D (endurance all-road) Yes that price for "just" a decal is pretty steep, but I was told most of that cost goes to additional steps required with frame prep and applying, so basically most of that price goes to labor. That kinda make sense to me.

So I chose just black paint and will source decals and apply them myself.

And if anyone is interested, Jim from LightCarbon was kind enough (thanks to him for amazing support) to send me vector files of their logo (I hope it is ok to post it here).

PS: I also modified one file to have round corners (for vinyl decals it is good to have them, sometimes sharp corners can get caught by rug while cleaning and then peel of a bit)
PPS: Vector files are in 1:1 ratio and logo is 40x350mm

Re: Lightcarbon: LCR018-D (endurance all-road) This is the first part of my review because I haven't used it yet.

1) Before ordering

Light Carbon answered all my questions via WhatsApp very quickly. Their communication is very good.

2) Shipping time

Since the frame was at the beginning of production, I placed the order on August 25th. The frame was shipped on September 28th and I received it on October 15th. No tracking information until October 13th, when it arrived in Europe. This is completely normal for this type of shipment.

3) Box

The box is very good quality and solid, and the frame was very well packaged.

4) Frame quality

The frame is simply magnificent:
Raw matte carbon color without any flaws. I love to see all the different lay-up.
Bottom bracket very easy to screw in by hand. Everything is well aligned (calipers and bottom bracket shell).
 It only took me 2 minutes to align the discs.

The inside of the frame is perfect, without any defects.

The bearings fit perfectly into the frame.

The bottle cage screws have threadlocker on them.

The handlebar seems very stiff.

Honestly, this is by far the best frame finish I have ever seen.

I repeat, I have not used it yet.

5) The build

Everything was so smooth. No problem at all.

6) Negative point

The only negative point concerns the saddle rail clamp. The clamping screw is very close to the seatpost, and if you don't have a very thin socket, it's not possible to tighten it. I would have liked the screw to be more off-center.

7) Conclusion

I strongly recommend this frame because it looks truly exceptional. I'm really looking forward to testing it to confirm this good impression.

I will definitely do a Part 2.
