Quote from: Timuk on October 22, 2026, 02:36:31 AMI'm looking at a similar spec.  My shortlist as I want to keep costs low is Velobuild, Longteng GV205, and Light Cycling GF04.

Latter two look like they are too new to get feedback and I haven't seen a build GF04 to see if top tube is level(ish). 

All three though look at racier end of spectrum you are looking at.

Will look into those frames.
Du you plan to ride 1x or 2x groupset?

I never heard of this frame before, thanks.

Help me find my dream frame! Will double as fast road and gravel bike.
-agressive geometry
-as horisontal top tube as possible, do not like the look of to sloping mtb style top tube
-fit 50mm tyres
-in frame storage
-cockpit 38-40 cm wide and different stem length to chose
- custom painting
-2x compatible

I also worked with Jim on a wheelset and ended up purchasing the C53DB-URD28-450CRay-24H/24H-UD-M wheels.  They should be shipping later this week.
Description:
C53DB Disc 700C carbon CX/Gravel Clincher wheelset.
Rims:NRD28-450C (28mm outer width (21mm inner width). Undulating 45-
50mm height. Clincher (tubeless ready). 24/24H. UD black matte finish.
Hubs:LightCarbon C53DB disc road hubs, ceramic bearings, Ratchet 54T
freehub system;disc brake(center lock).
Sram XDR Cassette body .
Front: M12x100mm, Rear: M12x142mm.
Spokes:Sapim CX-Ray spokes . nipples (black).

I wouldn't go under 23mm inner width. For larger tyres 32-40mm I would look for 24-26 mm inner. 21mm inner I would considered old school.

Does a road 2by groupset fit?

FM316
Been looking at it for similar reason.

What's the difference between FM316 and the FM336 with internal storage?

Which is the most agressive frame from Mondince with geometry close to road bike? Im looking for a do it all allroad aero bike which take larger tyres than the Light carbon lcr018.

Can you get it without rivets on the fork?
I'm as well between the 336 amd LRC018 as a allroad do it all bike.
Pros and cons?

I paid for the frame size 56 on October 20th and it arrived on Friday. Everything looks fine, the paint quality is excellent, I'm waiting for the remaining components.

What colour is that?

A few pages ago, there was a report of a storage compartment lid coming loose. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
I'm trying to decide whether to order the frame with or without the compartment.

I have the same question. If anyone can post some pictuted on the lid and compartment would very helpful.
How much can be fitted in the frame? A electronic mini pump? Tube, mini tool, tyre leaver?

I can't find the LCR018 on lightcarbons website? Is it because of long waiting times? If the frame is available,pls provide the link.

Do you know of a similar "allroad" bikes for 50% road and 50% light gravel, UDH hanger and at least 38mm tyres, preferably as horizontal top tube as passible
