Lapierre Crosshill 3.0

The "Crosshill 3.0" model from the Lapierre brand from 2024 is a versatile gravel bike that is characterised by high-quality components and a well thought-out design. The frame is made of Crosshill gravel Supreme 5 Alloy with internal cable routing, which not only ensures a tidy look, but also increases durability. The permissible total weight is 120 kg, which gives the bike robust stability.

The Shimano GRX disc brakes with 160 mm discs at the front and rear ensure safe and reliable braking. The gears are equipped with a Shimano GRX RX400 11-speed Shadow+ system, which enables precise and smooth gear changes. The front derailleur is also a Shimano GRX RX400 Brazed-On, which ensures optimum chain guidance.

The rigid fork and the FSA BB-4000 Road bottom bracket with a width of 68 mm contribute to the rigidity and efficiency of the drivetrain. The FSA Omega Adventure MegaExo crankset is available in different lengths depending on the frame size and, with its 46-30T chainrings, offers a good range for different types of terrain. The drive system is complemented by a KMC X10 chain and a Sunrace CSMS0 sprocket with 11-34T gradation.

The handlebar is a Lapierre alloy gravel bar, which is available in different widths depending on the frame size and, with a drop of 130 mm, a reach of 70 mm and a flare of 16°, is optimised for the needs of gravel riders. The grips are made of Fizik Terra Microtex, which ensures comfort and good grip. The stem is also made from Lapierre alloy and varies in length depending on the frame size.

WTB Raddler tyres in size 700 x 40c with Tan Sidewall, which are mounted on Fastace hubs and WTB ST i23 rims, ensure contact with the road. This combination offers a good balance between rolling resistance and traction on various surfaces. The Fizik Terra Argo X7 saddle with a width of 150 mm ensures comfort even on longer rides, while the Lapierre alloy seatpost with a diameter of 27.2 mm and a length of 350 mm offers additional customisation options.

The Crosshill 3.0 is available at a price of EUR 1699 and is aimed at riders looking for a reliable and versatile gravel bike that is suitable for off-road adventures as well as everyday use.
