Nice build, Stefan! What stem do you use?

I have choosen the Deore driveline but with a SLX shifter. Its a bit heavier but the preformance is great and the price is resonable. I have gone for 11S to save a little weight.

Finished with my LCFS918. I really like the lines of the frame. The quality of the frame is as always with Light Carbon great. This was really a smooth build without problems. And the bike is light, size L about 12 KG.
Wow this bike looks really nice all built up. Can't wait to hear ride feedback. Also, how usable is that seatpost bottle cage?

The fork is 100mm or 120mm?

the fork is 120 mm.

The seat bottle cage can be used with a 50 cl bottle

How does it fare in trail riding and uphill if you compare?. LCFS911
We have one in M size but can't compare because it's too small for me.

Has anyone tried a 165x40 or 165x42.5 shock? does the frame support it?

It's beautiful StefanB , size L, did you have the chance to weight the frame?

No i did not check the weight of the frame.

I have my frame and a in the process of building it up.   Where are you guys getting spacers for the rear shock?  I have 9mm on either side of the lower shock and I am not able to source anything.  Should I just make my own?

Offsetbusings has what you need.

On the fence about this frame.

Anyone with this built, can we get some feedback on how it rides and handles?

Hi Stefan, nice build! How does the rear suspension works? smooth or a bit hard? Thank you for your help.
