I used a Cable housing of 4mm and his cap inserted in the "Sram cable stop",  inserted the cable and tightened the small Allen screw .

The image is from LightCarbon page

Oh, found it. I didn't know another cable stop had come together. Thanks! Eureka!

Hi in mine Red22 HydroR  I use the "Sram Cable Stop"

Thanks for the photo. So the "Sram cable stop" is located just below the frame's cable plug, right?
Does the cable stop attach securely to the plug?
The plug I have doesn’t seem to hold the cable stop—it’s either too thick or too thin for the hole in the plug.
So I was wondering if I need to glue in a thinner one with something like epoxy to keep it in place.
(Attached photo is the cable plug. Because I'm not exactly sure if that's the right term for it)

Hello everyone, I mounted my new LCR017-D

The bike is comfortable and a rocket in group ride

This is my actual setup:

    Wheelset: Vision TC 40 DB disk Front 160mm Rear 140 mm

    Saddle: Full Carbon from Aliexpress
    Pedals: Old Mavic titanium Keo compatible.

weight with pedals and bottelcage : 7,5 kg


Hi, I'm assembling a Force 22 HydroR groupset, but I've hit a snag while installing the front derailleur. How far did you run the cable housing?
I noticed that I can't mount a cable stop at the cable hole under the downtube, so I'm thinking of running the housing all the way to the front derailleur. But it seems like the housing might be rubbing against the derailleur if I do that.
Do you have any advice?

Got this frame last week and did a temporary assembly. It's a size 54.
It's basically a Rival 22 setup, but I used a Force AXS crankset and a Bikingreen 4630 chainring.
The UCI logo can be placed within a limited range of positions.

I opted for BB Lightcarbon provided with the frame for 10 $ too, but in may case for Shimano 24 mm spindle. I believe it is this one:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005643507518.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.main.1.6e8btWE1tWE1tI&algo_pvid=fae8237c-b167-457c-aff6-e81222f94927&algo_exp_id=fae8237c-b167-457c-aff6-e81222f94927-0&pdp_ext_f=%7B%22order%22%3A%22-1%22%2C%22eval%22%3A%221%22%7D&pdp_npi=4%40dis%21EUR%2143.99%2143.99%21%21%2144.56%2144.56%21%40211b6c1717374654915675951e7e27%2112000033860087579%21sea%21SI%21172706680%21X&curPageLogUid=pFyR0bZsLD5x&utparam-url=scene%3Asearch%7Cquery_from%3A

As per details provided in the link above, the tool should be 52 mm with 16 teeth (52-16). However, I measured the size of the BB and ordered a different one from aliexpress (49-16) and it worked like a charm. Again, my BB was for Shimano 24 mm cranks, so take my advice with a grain of salt.

Wow, this opens up even more possibilities. Now I understand why they included "set" as a product option. Haha.
If the product in the link is the same as the one provided by Lightcarbon, then trying the 49mm 16-notch for now would be fine, I guess. Thanks!

Can someone check the tools needed to assemble the T47 BB provided by LightCarbon? I haven’t started assembling the frame yet, but I want to prepare the tools in advance. I’m planning to use a SRAM Force AXS crankset, and the chart shows two options for SRAM.. (I knew there were many types of BBs, but I didn’t realize there were this many BB tools as well.)
