Lapierre PULSIUM ALLROAD 5.0

The PULSIUM ALLROAD 5.0 from Lapierre from 2024 is a versatile bike that is characterised by its high-quality features and robust construction. The frame is made of Pulsium Allroad Disc Thru axle UD carbon, which not only gives the bike a high level of stability, but also optimises the overall weight. With a permissible total weight of up to 120 kg, it is ideal for riders who want to ride both on the road and on unpaved paths.

Equipped with Shimano GRX disc brakes (160/160), the PULSIUM ALLROAD 5.0 offers reliable braking performance in a variety of conditions. Shifting is handled by the Shimano GRX RX820, 12s Shadow +, which ensures precise and smooth gear changes. The front derailleur, also a Shimano GRX RX820 Brazed-On, completes the shifting system. The rigid fork contributes to stability and control, while the VP-335 Clips&Strap pedals ensure a secure grip.

The bottom bracket is a Shimano Press Fit BB71-41B, and the crankset is a Shimano GRX RX600 with 46-30T chainrings, with the crank arm length varying depending on the frame size. The sprocket is a Shimano CS-HG710 11-36T 12s, and the drivetrain is completed by the Shimano 105 CN-M7100 12s chain. The handlebar is a Lapierre alloy gravel bar with different widths depending on the frame size and a 16° flare for more control on uneven terrain.

The Lapierre alloy stem offers internal cable routing and varies in length depending on the frame size. The headset is an Acros AIX-532 IS52/28.6 - IS52/40, which ensures precise steering movements. The WTB Byway tyres in size 700 x 34c are mounted on Shimano RS470 hubs and WTB STi23 aluminium rims, which ensures a good balance between speed and comfort.

The Selle Italia Model X Superflow saddle offers comfort even on longer rides, while the Lapierre alloy seatpost with a diameter of 27.2mm and a length of 350mm ensures a stable riding position. With a price tag of EUR 2799, the PULSIUM ALLROAD 5.0 offers excellent value for money for cyclists looking for a reliable and versatile bike.
