Has anyone actually confirmed whether or not LC manufactures the SS Evo for Cannondale?

I was having a chat with one of my industry buddies who mentioned that since Cannondale is made in Taiwan, how could LC produce them? Which seems strange considering LC includes the SuperSix Evo in their marketing email to customers regarding the LCR017-D.

So either LightCarbon is spreading misinformation or Cannondale is using the produced in China but finished in Taiwan to be considered "Made in Taiwan." Or perhaps LC's is design is just different enough to avoid a cease and desist or copyright lawsuit?

According China Cycling Joe, Specialized frames are produced in China. Despite "Made In Taiwan" stickers on their framesets. None of this is my area of expertise so I'm curious what you guys think.

What marketing are you referring to I never saw any brand names on their website I communication with them

Anyone had trouble with the supplied bearings? One of them came apart i put it back together but the seal isnt flush. So im ordering some new ones was wondering which brand to buy.

Dunno I don’t see how it could be. But if you can unscrew it the rest of the way is through the wheel axel and that should be smooth bushing.

For the price of my build I could have bought a new bikefrom canyon or trek just with maybe 105di2 instead of ultegra. I mainly do it because it’s fun to be honest. Which makes sense since they need to give x years or gurantee and now that’s on me myself and i

I dropped it off at the bicycle shop yesterday. The head mechanic was off and they open on again on Tuesday so I left it there. I’ll get back when I get their assessment.

Well this was interesting the shop which i was always pretty happy with called me with their assessment, the thread was wrongly milled, it was undeep and in the wrong direction and then asked if it chinese and then refused even though they had the gear to attempt any repair. While picking up the frame i got another remark about trash chinese frames. Back home i send over some video en photo's to light carbon and they simply said its done by cnc it cant be the wrong direction. I was kind of annoyed but then decided to make another video while retracing the thread to show it was in the wrong direction and while doing this i found out the thread was in the right direction... then did the same with the elvedes cups and low and behold these "dutch quality" pieces of crap where both right threaded. I went to another local bike shop (the previous shop lost a customer after the last encounter) and picked up a praxis T47 BB. And yep it fits and goes right in.

The drive side bottom bracket on most bikes uses a left-hand thread, which means it tightens counterclockwise and loosens clockwise. This is called "English" threading, which is the common standard for bottom bracket shells. The non-drive side (left side) of the bottom bracket uses a right-hand thread, which tightens clockwise and removes counterclockwise.

I know and this is clearly marked on the bottom bracket I got. It doesn’t even go in a bit it doesn’t grip the thread it’s as if it’s the wrong size. The non drive side goes in smoothly btw. Haven’t heard back from Wendy (about this and some paint issues I discovered while working with the bike) normally she was very quick with her response let’s hope that’s not a bad omen.

Crap I was going along building up the bike bit by bit. Routed all the cables and then wanted to mount the bottom bracket… and the drive side is not good, the bottom bracket simply doesn’t catch the thread and go in. I emailed Wendy for a solution but I fear it needs to be replaced or atleast rethreaded
