As already mentioned by other people the carbon in some areas (downtube, toptube) Is very thin. You can easily flex it with your thumb. I don't know if that is normal for that kind of frames. I just want to say it.

Isn't that super scary? Not sure if I would feel safe 40mph downhill on  a frame I can flex with my fingers

Other light weight frames from western brands also have flex on individual tubes .  It's a box so its strength is derived from the entire structure not just from one individual plane from one side of one tube.

@ PaxiH Heard similar said about bikes like (high modulus carbon) the Sworks Tarmac SL7, SL8. Seka Exceed RDC, Cannondale LAB71 SuperSix Evo. Racall in a cam nicholls examination of the seka Exceed RDC it was pointed out that one needs to be more careful with these frames because, vs a low modulous carbin bike, they won't fare as well in a crash

Isn't the Yushan frame a different mold?

I think they mean "LCR017-D is our latest bike frame and our frame designers also copied the bottom part of the supersixevo seat tube."

It's not like you can flex it much but it is possible.
On the first kilometers I was riding a little bit careful because of that. Even if I've read that it is normal for many lightweight frames.
As the bike feels rock solid while riding it I now have no worries to ride at higher speeds.

Thanks! I also really liked how it turned out. I just send some pictures of the paint scheme and the decals and explained where I wanted them to be placed. Afterwards I received a sketch up of the design to confirm it. Quite easy, even without any design skills.

• There is a tiny imperfection in the paint job of which I was informed by LC before shipping and I was asked whether I'm ok with it or whether I wanted it fixed (further delaying the process). I was ok and received a free bottle cage and mech hanger. Couldnt find any other imperfections so I'm well happy on how they played this.

I wish I had that opportunity ahaha I went super basic with the colours and now I'd have done sth wilder... Can't change the colour now according to Wendy

Thanks for this!  Out of curiosity, what size is your frame?  Hoping my 58 will finally ship tomorrow or Thursday ... fingers crossed ... not getting impatient at all ... nope! ...

• For the installation of the rear Rival brake callipers you need 32mm Flat Mount bolts. 27mm are too short and 37mm are too long. I installed 37mm and used 5mm washers as a temporary solution.

Frame seize is 56cm, weighed around 980g on my kitchen scales. The wheelset (C67DB 45mm) weighs 1264g.

Strange. You should have had yours for long. U took the last one in stock and I was waiting for the new batch. According to Wendy, mine is already being painted...

Well I hope there aren't any delays in mine.

With that in mind I got a feeling someone else got the last one in that batch ;-)

I just got a text by Wendy from Lightcarbon. They will join Eurobike this year in Frankfurt, 3 to 7 July 2024.
It's great chance to friends from Europe to have a closely look on their product.

Hi everyone, I'm considering buying the LCR017 but still uncertain about the color, has anyone seen what white chameleon looks like in real life ?  (Chameleon 7207 on Lightcarbon website)

Definitely get a chameleon color over the plain color
