Nice LB! Whats the heaviest load youv'e had on the front?

[@criddler_9738]

Thank you for the kind words. Honestly, I’m not exactly sure. I would guess around 25-40.lbs depending on the ride. The Lightning Bolt frameset is spec for a rider 100kg (220lbs) A friend of mine uses panniers and a Ron’s Bikes Large Fab’s chest and he is a smaller rider also, so he tried to get as close to max weight for the LB I think.

Ah sorry, misunderstandig. I mean your size. The sizes of the bike are known. I am wounderig because the seatpost is realy short. Thank you!

[@criddler_9738]

@@user-et4gs7tt2t I’m about 5’11” barefoot with an inseam of 32” the reason my seat post is low because I built this bike to fit me like a “French Fit” the crank arms on this build currently are 172.5. If I were to put 165 length crank arms I would raise the saddle to accommodate more. In the past I have hurt my knees before by over extending my legs on long rides by raising the saddle too high on builds with similar fits. I can raise the saddle up for filming purposes for aesthetic reasons, there are people on KZbin and Instagram that do move the saddle height for visual aesthetics purposes and lower it for when the riders is on the bike. I just filmed this video in the middle of a ride. I have another video of this build with different components, I swapped out the seat post for a Nitto 65. There are more videos coming soon from my quiver… stay tuned.

How do you like that Rando bag?

[@criddler_9738]

I love it! crustbikes.com/collections/bags/products/berthoud-sans-decaleur-handlebar-bag?variant=39533988151386 I bought both sizes. Easy to switch around if you have a couple of bikes.

microshift centos with 105 RD? curious, very curious!

[@criddler_9738]

Good eye. The current setup shifts index. I wanted to see what compatibilities were possible. Everything works 2x9 great. Soon I will be switching up the cockpit to run friction down tube shifting with this 2x9 drivetrain. More videos coming soon.

[@amitkumar-wj8gn]

@@criddler_9738 wow, I am getting a custom bike built and I have also opted for friction DT shifters with a 9 speed. :) looking forward to new videos, subscribed!
