Imagine a bike that has conquered the highest summits, the largest monuments in the world of cycling.
Lapierre are talking about Alpe d’Huez, the Lakes of Covadonga, the Giro di Lombardia, etc. So many places where the Xelius has triumphed at the hands of Thibaut Pinot. The Xelius has no restrictions. It's a climber. It’s also a descendeur. Fast on flat ground. Lively. Comfortable. The perfect equation. Developed for professionals, but available to all cyclists. Technology for everyone.

KEY FEATURES
Drag Reduction System
The Aircode DRS (Drag Reduction System) is more streamlined, more distinctive, more rigid, more aerodynamic and also more comfortable than the previous Aircode SL. The combination of Lapierre's carbon expertise, from the choice of fibres to the type of construction, and the experience of the Groupama FDJ team, has resulted in a bike that plays with the laws of physics.

A unique manufacturing process.
The frame of the Xelius SL is made up of 300 or so UD SL carbon folds and parts which are arranged around a new latex mandrel before going into the mould. This first phase of construction allows for higher manufacturing quality and saves on weight.
A versatile groupset
With the full Shimano 105 R7000 chainset, the Xelius SL 5.0 DISC offers reliability and versatility. The compact 50x34 chainset, combined with an 11-speed 11-30T cassette, provides for smooth pedalling on flat ground and also allows you to attack the greatest altitudes with at speed.
