Re: LCFS911 full suspension
I have Shimano m7100 cranks with 34t chainring. I know, that boost cranks have different chainline than this. But I dont know, if there is other differnece between this cranks than chainlain. For example distance between cranks or axle width.

Shimano non-boost M7100 has a 52mm chainline which is basically the same as a SRAM boost chainline so should work just fine. The axle width and q-factor of M7100 non-boost and boost cranks is the same. the only difference is shimano M7100 boost cranks have a 55mm chainline.

Re: LCFS911 full suspension
Just did the final shakedown. Very happy with the feel and power delivery.
Specs:
Fox shock (Trek Top Fuel Takeoff)
SRAM XX crankset + Quarq Power Meter
XO1 AXS Eagle 12 speed mini Group
SRAM Level TLM brakes
Amazon $20 disc rotors (fantastic)
Light Bicycle RD934-TR Carbon rims
Profile racing Hubs (USA made)
EThirteen 9-46 12 speed cassette
Following parts from Scott Spark takeoff:
Rockshox Sid 100mm fork Boost
Syncros Carbon Seatpost, Bars, stem
24.5lbs with pedals & Wahoo mounted
Size 19”
Took approx 2 months from order (Nov 20, 2020) to delivery
About $3500 invested combination of new and used parts
I've got this frame now!  1950detroit sold me the frame, fork, shock, handlebars, stem (I swapped to 80mm Syncros stem instead of his 120mm stem), seatpost, and saddle.  I had most of the parts laying around, just had to buy a crank, chain, and a few little parts.

Specs:
Fox shock (Trek Top Fuel Takeoff)
SRAM XO GXP crankset (started it's life as a 2x, swapped on a 32t ring)
11-speed GX derailleur, XX1 shifter, X01 cassette, XX1 chain
Formula Cura 2 brakes
Amazon $20 disc rotors
Speedsafe rims, ZTTO 54t hubs, Pillar Wing 20 spokes, Sapim brass spokes (I built them)
Vittoria Mezcal XC 29x2.25 (I'm curious to try a Barzo front)
Following parts from Scott Spark takeoff:
Rockshox Sid 100mm fork Boost
Syncros Carbon Seatpost, Bars, stem, saddle, grips
Bontrager comp pedals

Build ended up at 23.2 lbs with pedals, and 23.6 with dual bottle cage.  I 3d printed the bracket to hold both cages at the perfect angle, could maybe make an aluminum version that's lighter, but I'm not worried about it, the bracket itself is around 100g and the ABS part seems plenty strong.  First ride was a success, the bike was really fast, it's about 1 lb lighter than my hardtail so having a lighter bike with the sting taken off the rear end was nice.  I only felt any noticeable bob when standing and pedaling hard, and it's nothing major.  The noise I heard was the topping out of the DPS shock, but I think I need to add rebound damping and soften the air spring.  I added McMaster neoprene foam around the cables so those are silent, which is really nice!  I'm hoping this bike will be the perfect XC and long distance bike.  My favorite ride is a 57 miler with 18 miles of very rooty old-school singletrack, 21 miles of flow trail, and the rest is gravel to get in between.  My hardtail makes my joints ache by the end and my trail bike is just so heavy.  The goal of this bike is to cut the difference.  I think my biggest surprise was how nimble the bike was.  My hardtail is a Transition Vanquish, which is 67 HTA (which should match the 911 HTA once sagged), 75 STA, short chainstays, but the LCFS911 feels SO much more nimble around tight turns.
