Lapierre EDGE 5.9

The 2021 "EDGE 5.9" model from Lapierre is a mountain bike that stands out thanks to a well-thought-out combination of high-quality components and a frame designed specifically for women. The frame is made from EDGE WOMEN 27.5" SUPREME 4 ALLOY and features internal cable routing for a clean, tidy look. The brakes are SHIMANO MT200 hydraulic disc brakes, which ensure reliable braking performance in a variety of conditions.

Shifting is handled by the SHIMANO ALTUS SHADOW RDM2000 9-speed rear derailleur, which enables precise and smooth gear changes. The SR SUNTOUR XCM RL DS fork, with its 100 mm travel, offers sufficient suspension for uneven terrain. The pedals are XERAMA SP 400, whilst the bottom bracket is fitted with a 122 mm square-taper axle.

The SHIMANO FCMT101 crankset comes with two chainrings (36x22T) and is available in lengths of 170 mm for size S and 175 mm for M/L. The SUNRACE CSM90 cassette offers a 9-speed range from 11 to 36 teeth, which, together with the KMC X9 chain, ensures an efficient drivetrain.

The bike’s cockpit consists of an XLC ALLOY handlebar with a width of 700 mm and a rise of 15 mm, as well as a stem with a length of 60 mm and an angle of 6 degrees. The grips are HERRMANS LOCK ON DD30B, 130 mm in length, which provide a secure grip.

The headset is an FSA NO.10 semi-integrated model, which contributes to stability and steering precision. The hubs are SHIMANO HBTX505 with 32 spokes and a Centre Lock mount, enabling a robust wheel attachment. The saddle, an XLC WOMAN by DDK, is specially designed to suit the female anatomy and is supported by an XLC ALLOY seatpost with a diameter of 31.6 mm and a length of 400 mm.

Overall, the Lapierre EDGE 5.9 offers a well-balanced specification that ensures both comfort and performance for off-road riding.
