Me, I've ordered one almost 1 month ago, according to the lastest update from last week, it should be shipped this week...

Regarding frame size, the choice right now is still limited to the availability of just the L size. So, I went for that size, also considering and comparing the frame geo to my current 29ers in L size, a Scott Spark RC and a Cannondale Scalpel HT.

My 32er wheelset was already built and shipped, currently on its way from China to Europe...

Hello, do you have any update with your frame? How long was the shipping time? I ordered one too.
Do you have also tires for your wheelset?

I put carbon paste between the lock module parts (also between frame, lock, seatpost) also on the whole length of seatpost and finaly dont have any creaking and slipping. Torque 9Nm and three digit weight. But clean the seat tube with isopropanol first

Hello guys, I finally rode my bike today and I'm very impressed with its stiffness. It wasn't my first build, but it was definitely the easiest one. Everything fit exactly as it should, without any issues (let's ignore the integrated cables ).

After previous experience with AXS, I chose a mechanical 2x12 105 groupset with an Ultegra crankset and VXM 160mm brake rotors [great brake power], Novatec R4 wheelset. Di2 battery and cables are not my cup of coffee.

A few insights:
I'm 193 cm tall, 93 cm inseam, 110 kg.

The frame is pretty stiff during sprints, but the seatpost is creaking (or maybe the saddle? Not sure yet). The seatpost is installed with carbon paste and tightened to 9 Nm.

Specs:
LightCarbon frameset size 58 – 1,196 g
Color: raw carbon glossy
LightCarbon fork – 463 g
Expander – 57 g
Headset and all accessories – 219 g
LightCarbon specific seatpost (straight) – 191 g
Thru axle rear M12 P1.5 L 16 165 mm – 37 g
LightCarbon cockpit 440/120 mm – 341 g
Bag – 50 g
Door – 57 g

Total weight with pedals and all accessories – 8.6 kg
Total price – 1,600 EUR (since November I've been hunting for the best deals; otherwise the price could have been around 2,500 EUR)
Waiting time after ordering: 4 weeks (production and delivery)

In the photo I'm running 40 mm tires on 23 mm internal rim width. My road tires are 32 mm.

oilegorpines I received answers after few hours or one day. But I had a chat with Carol.

BTW:
22.12.2025 Ordered frame 58 rawcarbon glossy
23.12.2025 confirmation of payment [ try to use revolut and paypal [15usd fee instead 45], description below]
19.01.2026 - I sent them email about the status. Answer: 110x420 handlebar was out of stock, replaced with 120mm handlebars
21.01.2026: photos of the frame, replacing seatpost and few things
30.01.2026: received shipping number with DE postfix
10.02.2026: unboxing


If you have revolut card, transfer money from your main bank account to the revolut. Better conversion than bank->paypal, dont send money to paypal but add revolut card there. Then you can pay directly from revolut card, fee is 15usd instead of 45usd

hello, I have a question regarding seatpost. Is it replacable with some seatposts which are available on regular eshops [like for specialized sl8] or it is specific shape which is used only by LC?

Hello. How long did you have to wait to receive your frame? I mean only the shipping time from the factory, not the time from ordering. It was shipped a week ago with a DE shipping postfix [which isn't working yet], so I'm curious when I'll be able to build my bike. Thank you
delivery address is Europe - SK

Can you tell me your height?

193cm, 92inseam, i have quite a long hands so will see how it fit.
first setup was with 15mm offset seatpost and 420x110 but it should arrive with 0mm offset and 120mm stem
I will update it later

Yesterday I received photos of my frame:
Size 58, color: raw carbon glossy
ordered 22.12.2025, photos received: 20.01.20206
ordered with handlebars HBR17 420x110
If someone ordered also 420x110 they are not in stock and you need to wait couple of weeks. I replaced them with 420x120 which are on stock (420x100 too)

hello, what brake rotors and what size are you using on lcr18. thinking about 180mm front and 160mm rear but I cant find what is the max rotor size. If someone is using 140mm is it enough for allround please?

That was exactly my point. I do not expect that either.  However, when I asked the same question to LightCarbon representative they sent me a size chart table that claim that 56 size frame support riders up to 193cm which I dissregarded as correct.

LightCarbon representative also told me to measure my stem lenght (which is 87cm) and compare it with bike standover height which for 83.13cm for 58 size frame. Bike standover height should be 2-3cm shorter than rider's stem lenght which in my case is 4cm shorter. Hence my question if anyone of my size or even taller ride 58 size frame ?

I really like this frame but it sounds that there is no chinese frame that support my height. The similar problem I have with tantan X68 frame. Thier 58 size has even smaller bike standover height.

Hello, did you ordered something, if yes which size of frame and stem do you have please. im stuck with sizing too - 193cm, 92inseam.
