Lightcarbon sells Shimano parts as well? 😮

Seeing as you (too) live in Northern Europe, I look forward to hearing about how high the tax/customs fee will be. Also interested in which value of the goods LC indicate on the package.

Hey fellow 018-D Lurkers!

First of all: big thank you to all of you for sharing all these valuable infos - also great to see LC active on this forum.

I've recently ordered a 58cm (lead time end of October) with an own, custom design.
Was in contact with Wendy and overall I'm very pleased with the ordering experience. Due to the kind of complicated design it took a while to dial everything in (and at some point Wendy should have told us earlier that some parts of the planned design is not possible to paint, would have saved a couple of hours of work with the designer) but in the end we've found a good solution.


I am 193cm with a 93cm inseam. I've used Bike-stats to match the position of my Dropbar MTB and went for a 110mm Stem.
The bike is going to be a long distance/all road project.
Will use my 45mm Light Bicycle WR45 wheelset (with a SON Delux & Carbon Ti X Hub).
Biggest challenge will be the routing of the dynamo cable to my front light.
Groupset is likely a mix of Force E1, and Garbaruk Stuff. 44T to 52-10

Hi Paul, I was a lurker up until now as I felt the urge to thank you for this post. I'm also 193 cm and very interested in getting this frame this winter.
Your experience with the frame and its geometry will be extremely useful for me. No pressure 

Looking forward to your updates!
