2 michaeldepeza:
I see pic of RxR chinese wheelset even though it's not on the list. So, DON'T. EVAR.
Used this 29" shit on my carbon rigid mtb to run roads,

If you're going to use Chinese wheelsets get a decent set from light-bicycle , or ican or yoleo or nextie.  I have light bicycle built wheels on XC bike, Road bike and Gravel bike, they are very well built very strong wheels, but they cost about 700-900 a set .  My XC are hope pro2 evo hubs and dt swiss spokes and the road/gravel are novatect 791/792 hubs with pillar 1420 spokes.  From experience the $300-500 sets are sketchy as hell.

2021 Tideace FMR185 w/Light Bicycle Wheels (road)
2023  Chasing Wind w/ elite wheels (Gravel)

Hey Bro and Guys im trying to choose ideal size....my present bike matched to this frame would put me in 19" frame choice however i initially was gonna order the 20.5 frame...my thinking now is that's too large as my Trek Superfly was extra large at 21"...a 2012 model....

i'm 5'10"
I'm 6' with short legs and could JUST fit the 150 mm Reverb B, the hose does a very sharp corner though. Would not work if it was a bowden...
I have a 19" frame, I think it fits me perfectly.

i just assumed that you were supposed to pick the 30x8mm set from that amazon link. i'll measure my frame when it arrives and report back.


Hey man...did you get through with your shock bushing issue and how far along are you on build?

I just have to say that the LCFS958 is still a great bike, love riding it. Maybe in todays tounge its more downcountry than trail, with 130/140 mm travel (?) But it climbs well, descends well, is easy to handle quite light, a great bike :-)

And after the issues with the AM831 I must say that Light Carbon frames fell very thought through and well made.
