how long does it last and has the battery degraded over a year?

hmm around 8 hours i would say roughly on radar only, maybe 5 with some kind of light on as well.  I don't feel the battery has degraded.

I've had mine for over a year now, and very pleased with it.  No issues and just works, paired to my Bryton.
Didn't even realized there were firmware upgrades till I read this thread!

I also have the same problem with my LC MTB and that was provided headset.  Provided compression is nice and tight and there is no play, I haven't had any issues with the gap

light carbon LCFS919 "budget" build

LCFS919 medium frame matte black
SLX brakeset and rotors
29er light carbon wheelset
29x2.35 barzo TLR front, 29x2.25 mezcal TLR rear tubeless
Spank 35mm stem
Wren 740mm carbon handlebars
Chinese carbon saddle
Chinese EXA dropper post
SROAD 11-42t cassette
YBN chain 11sp
Horizon Pedals
Chinese 165mm cranks
120mm Sid Ultimate race day Fork
Mara Manitou Inline Shock 120mm
SRAM NX derailleur

All about ~11kg.  I am happy with the result, probably could go lighter but considering what I spent its a good compromise.

There is a good thread on the 918.  I have the UDH version and so far I love it.  I wish it did not have the cables through the head tube as that is a pain in the butt and serves no real purpose or provides no benefit.  But it is what it is.  I am tempted to just make my own holes in the frame.  Other than that it is great.  I have built up 4 frames and all of them are running great.

I have to say this has been one of the major pains as well, as I am building my 919.
