Lapierre Overvolt AM 75th 2022 Electric Mountain Bike | labosch
In this video we present you a very special mountain ebike for the Lapierre brand. This year the French brand turns 75 and has created a series of limited edition bicycles and this is the electric bicycle they have made, a true ebike past.
Lapierre has taken the opportunity to make this electric MTB so that all lovers of the French brand can have one of the most special electric bikes that Lapierre has ever made. The design is brutal, aggressive colors while transmitting something special and premium, in addition to the frame that has been manufactured.
Lapierre for this full-suspension electric mountain bike is the best we've seen to date from the French brand. It is an aluminum frame, which is surprising as it is an ebike with these features, but when you see how careful and worked it is, it does not surprise you, because it looks like carbon, the finishes are excellent.
As for the battery and the motor, it has the best of the best, that is, the best Bosch motor, the 85Nm Performance Line CX and the new 750Wh Bosch battery. Lapierre, in order to continue with a good aesthetics of the frame and to power the integrated battery, has raised the motor a bit to be able to lower the battery more and to be able to better centralize the weight in the lower area of the triangle of the frame.
In addition, this year Bosch has also created a new Kiox with remote control to make riding an ebike more intuitive. With the Kiox 300 you will be able to ride without the screen with only the remote control, which distinguishes the help levels with colors and another important thing is that by connecting your smartphone you can regulate the power of the help levels.
As for the components of this mountain ebike, which we are going to tell you about, it has the best on the market, we would like to point out that it has the best fork on the market, the FOX Factory 38 with 170mm Kashima, as for the shock absorber, more than the same also a FOX with Kashima and then also a detail from Lapierre is that it mounts some Mavic wheels, which are only mounted on high-end electric bicycles, because these wheels are also a collaboration and are a special edition for the 75th anniversary of Lapierre .
Regarding the rest of the components, Lapierre mounts a Sram group for both the transmission and the brakes. The development of this electric MTB is a Sram X01 with 12 speeds and it has 4-piston brakes with cooled discs that are the Sram Code RSC 4. For more comfort on the descents and to have a good pedaling going up, this electric mountain bike is equipped with stock dropper post so nothing is missing.

Advantages and disadvantages of the Lapierre Overvolt Am 75th:
This electric MTB is incredible, you will find few electric bicycles like it, besides being an unlimited edition of the French brand. All we can say is that it might not be the right type of electric mountain bike for you. The geometry of this electric MTB is aggressive to face any type of trail or trial, but we can find an ebike with a less aggressive geometry than this, such as the Mustache Trail 9 .
The good thing about this electric bicycle is that there are also more aggressive ones, such as the KTM Macina Prowler Pro . So Lapierre has achieved a very balanced ebike, even if it is aggressive, for this super occasion that is its 75th anniversary.
