Product Description
The wind, this element that challenges cyclists and pushes them to their limit. Fighting and fighting again against this invisible force that slows them down, breaks their speed and their morale. But when the gust is tamed, it leads you to new heights of performance. It is this DNA that the new Xelius DRS embodies to perfection. This bike – which is a fusion of the two Xelius SL and Aircode DRS models – does not play with the wind, it faces it, challenges it and makes the most of it.
In the wind tunnel, the figures are clear: aerodynamics are 15% better by comparison to its predecessors. In watts, excellence is confirmed with up to 15 watts saved at high speed on the flat. And in a race? This new speedster crowned Cassandre Beaugrand at the Olympic Games. And will continue to take every rider's performance to the heights!
Xelius DRS, performance in perfect comfort
By making the radical choice to merge the best of two bikes that incorporate many professional victories, the Lapierre engineers made a bold choice. However, this machine cannot be reduced to speed alone: its new sleek lines and clean design (especially visible at the fork) offer a whole new perspective. In fact, the 3D Tubular technology, which has been meticulously reworked, frees up the whole seat post, allowing it to bend throughout its entire length.
As a result, comfort is significantly improved and subtly complements the responsive geometry of the rear triangle. Performance in perfect comfort is therefore confirmed by compatibility with a wide variety of tyres (up to 32mm) to cover a multitude of surfaces (paved roads, off-road, gravel paths, etc.). A born competitor!
