    Strengths:    I recently received this frame and marveled at the craftsmanship and color. Great job on the framebuilding. The frame is deep red, with clearcoat carbon weave on the top and down tube. Waiting on wheelset, then I'll be riding and will provide update on review. All-in-all, a great looking frame that is lightweight and very strong, and very cool looking. I bought a Leader USA carbon riser bar and seatpost with the frame. The riser bar is very lightweight and strong. Both look very nice and match the bike frame well.

    Weaknesses:    Paint chipped in a few small places (where headset and bb meet the frame) before the bike was even ridden once, but that may be due to rough shipping. (I got the frame in the mail with a big hole in the shipping box near the rear dropouts but the frame was packed very well and didn't take any damage)

    Bottom Line:   
    Wherever I take the LD-575 frame, people ask about it. Bike shop owners want to pick it up and examine it. Customers in the bike shop ask about it. No one has ever seen it or knows LeaderBike USA. Even the skeptical bike mechanics were impressed with the quality of the frame. I can't wait to get my wheelset to start riding on this great bike frame either! The picture on the website does NOT do this frame justice. It is much much better in real life.
