Im 175, cm height with 83,5 cm inseam, short torso but relatively long legs and arms. Im thinking I'd go with their size 50.
everyone is different and has unique preferences.

i am 178 and 87cm inseam - i happily ride a 54 with HBR17 @ 380x90.
my wife is 168cm and rides a size 50 with HBR17 @ 360x90.
i'd recommend a 52 to you. but a 50 with longer stem will also do the trick

you could also use one of the various geo websites and compare your polygon frame to the LCR018 sizes

Why is it so hard for people to do their own reasearch on bike frame sizing.

https://bikeinsights.com/compare

This site has every chinese and western brandframe going back in time. You can easly compaire your frame to any chinese purchase. You get an overlay of each frame together with your current frame.

Stop asking us to size your frame do your own research. If your current bike does not fit get a pro bike fit for a new frame and have them pick the right one for you.

What are you getting all cranky about? By "us" you probably meant "you"?
After all it's a forum where people exchange info and ask for advice.

If you dont feel like contributing, just ignore it or at least be polite

I was too excited in wrtiing my first post here and emailing Lightcarbon.
What i meant to say was size 52 haha. And 400/100 stem because ive ridden with 420/90 before on my gravel bike which have so much stack height (590). I want to try more compact form, with no extreme change from my previous bike.

Update: Jim and Wendy have responded to my inquiry, im currently asking them about maybe there's a slight chance we have discount if i were to check out on 11.11.

By the way, anyone here used shimano cues crankset? Im using crank: FC-U6030-1 cranks and i wonder if i would have trouble installing it on the T47 BB Shimano 24 they provide.
Jim said they never installed a shimano cues on this frame, so he couldnt confirm 100%

Recommend you to source an alternative T47 bb. The bearings actually got stuck when I torqued the T47 dub supplied by LC. Had a lot of T47 bb in the past, both 24mm and dub, and it never happened before. Frame is fine and worked perfect with another brand so something is sketchy. Good luck with your build. It’s a fantastic all road frame!

Well, if anyone here ever wondered how 45mm/40mm Panaracer Gravelking X1 will look like on our beloved bike 😂 I taped all the inner sidewalls of course. let's see...

You brave soul!

What do the measure on the wheel? Curious to know how it goes. Currently running a 40mm (39 wam) and 35mm (37 wam) Schwalbe g one all around on my gravel wheels. I feel like 40+ wam on the rear is getting risky for mud/dirt clearance.
