FrameLightCarbon LCG071-PRO
Created: July 14, 2025The reviewer states they purchased a complete frameset (frame, seat post, and integrated handlebars) from Light Carbon for approximately $700 including shipping. They emphasize the insanely cheap price and are extremely happy with the purchase. The reviewer had the frame inspected by bike mechanics who were astounded by the high quality of the carbon, the finish, and the lack of internal wrinkles. The frame is a UD gloss black finish, and they specifically requested a gloss finish seat post to match. The frame features integrated cable routing and a very large tire clearance, which was a primary reason for the purchase. They built it up as a 'monster gravel' bike with mountain bike tires.
