Upcoming LCE930 build

[Mikael1]

Hi guys,
I have been reading this forum and have been inspired by builds fron Sandnap and Denver among others. Now I just ordered and LCE930 with motorkit from LightCarbon. Will be posting pictures and notes as I build. The goal is a very functional build, not a luxorious or high end build. I will try to save money where possible without sacrificing quality. So it's a combination of new quality parts, old quality parts and some noname parts.

Wheels are existing 27.5" to begin with, but will probably build a 29" carbon set next year. If you guys have the frame in L and remember what length steerer tube you have (after cutting) that would help me source a good second hand fork.

Here's a brakedown of costs now with new money and total costs along with weight. The prices/components in orange are still pending.

Leave the RockShox Gold 35...
In my oppinion it is a too hevy piece of junk...
Look for a sale on a Lyrik...

Thanks for input. It's not super heavy. It's 2300g, roughly same as Yari. Will definitely buy a Lyrik if i see one for cheap (just missed one for 210€). But trying to cap the fork budget at around 200€ (second hand). I know 35's are sometimes available for 80€. I actual had a 35 silver. It was totally OK. It's not premium, but it works.

Alright, now I snatched up a Pike select MY22 for 259€. Also found a used 125mm dropper for 50€, which seems ok given the short insertion length of the seat tube.

Now just waiting for the parts to start rolling. Jim from light carbon said they would ship after 10.10, so hoping it would be soon.
