The R17 gives us the kind of road frameset we want in the range: light, clean, modern and properly thought through. It delivers the headline weight riders look for, but it also keeps the details that matter in the real world, a threaded T47 bottom bracket, flat mount discs, 12mm thru-axles and clearance for up to 700×32C tyres, all in a UCI package.
High modulus Toray carbon layup
LightCarbon specifies Toray T700, T800 and T1000 carbon fibre, with the frame weight coming in at 870g in size 52, positioning the R17 as a light performance road platform.
Integrated front-end design
The HBR17 integrated handlebar is included, helping create the clean, high-end finish expected from a modern performance road bike.
Modern road compatibility
A threaded T47 bottom bracket, flat mount brake compatibility, 12×100 / 12×142 thru-axles and 700×32C tyre clearance make this a refined race-focused frame with sensible build flexibility.
