I don't see any reason to make it private. If they're going to ship frames that are that shockingly shocking, people should know about it.

People know it. If people are really interested in the frame and they saw Hambini's review, is not that short video that will stop them from pulling the trigger.i actually drop that video even before Hambinis review. The video is still around if people try to know more about the frame they will find it

You're lucky you found this forum as LC knows it affects their bottom line.   It's like crowd funded post sale QC.  How did you find this forum?

Searching on google with the frame as keywords

Just curious for the bad frame, does it have a "QC Passed" sticker on it?

From the outside, can't see anything. From the inside, I recall seeing a label but don't recall what was it for. But definitely, I saw a QC sticker, maybe on the wheels

Did Lightcarbon ask you to remove the post linking the youtube showing the substandard frame in order for them to ship you out a new frame?

Yes, the did ask to remove it. I made it private. In case I don't hear them posting me about the shipping it will be back to public

So, they're sending you a new one or they still wait for you to crash, die, and then send a replacement to your grieving family?

They said yes, they will ship a replacement frame. I never rode the frame I have

wtf? the frame made of cheese?

Lightcarbon admitted this was a mistake on their QC. Hope that am the only one, and that no one has or will receive this "cheese" frame

Hello everyone,

After reading this thread, I am considering purchasing this frame soon.

I have two questions for those who have already purchased this frame because despite several searches on measurement sites (https://www.bikegeocalc.com and https://www.bikegeo.net) I hesitate between 2 frame sizes (52 and 54).
I am 177 cm tall and my inseam is 79 cm.
I am currently riding a Look 695 in size S (51)
I like to have a fairly large saddle outlet because I find it prettier.
Can you guide me according to your experiences?

My second question is about the choice of colors for the Chameleon series.
Did any of you order the frame with the Chameleon 08HS or Chameleon 13HS colors?
If so, can you show us the final rendering?

Thank you for your answers.

I had a similar doubt, but the 52 can come with the same voids as mine, so the 54 might come good (50/50) in terms of quality. Size chart-wise, maybe go smaller if the head tube size is ok for you

Hi all,

new here but read through the topic, I'm planning on building bike on this frame after hambini's review but after Tiago's adventures i'm being cautious. I'm in touch with Wendy from LC and discussing the details. I hope your case @tiagosantos_ss would be resolved positively. I intend on asking about your case in my email thread specifically.

I also have a q for people that already built a bike on this frame. Does it take Shimano cable operated FD or not? There is no clear answer from this thread. I'm waiting on Wendys response on that.

They replied "we checked with our warranty department and engineers... and the imperfections won't affect the frame function or strength"
They also say if something goes wrong with the frame, they will replace it, meaning if it breaks in that region and I fall, they will ship a new one (even if I am not able to ride any bike after falling or even walk)

Wow, that's the worst I've ever seen.  Did they give you a new frame? I wonder how voids like that even happen! It's like the sheet of carbon they used was all torn up when they put it in the mold or something.

So far only one "automatic reply" saying they are in an autumn festival and will be able to reply back after September 19th

Grade A. The new z-tier classification is the new way to sell crap at any cost keeping reputation high

Hello,

I purchased a LCR017 in June and received it a few months later, paid 712$, a bit less than you because I didn't ask any customization. Did you request any "z tier" when ordering your frame?
Upon inspecting my frame, I discovered significant voids in the upper seat tube area. I reached out to my sales contact, Carol, regarding this issue but have not received a response yet (WhatsApp and email). I also used the contact form on the Lightcarbon website to inquire about my frame situation.
Just to clarify, I am not seeking for clicks on my YouTube channel, as someone suggested in response to one of my comments on Hambini's video about the same frame model. I simply want to share my experience with the Lightcarbon. Here's the video,
Eventually, I will do another one if Lightcarbon keeps quite about my case.
Thanks Tiago
