Lapierre Pulsium SAT 6.0 AXS

The 2022 "Pulsium SAT 6.0 AXS" model from Lapierre is a high-performance road bike that utilises state-of-the-art technology and high-quality materials. Priced at 3999 EUR, it offers a wide range of features that are likely to appeal to both ambitious amateur cyclists and professionals. The bike’s frame is made from Pulsium SAT Disc thru-axle UD Superlight Carbon, providing an excellent combination of lightness and stability. This is complemented by the carbon fork, which reduces the bike’s overall weight whilst ensuring precise steering.

The bike’s gear system is based on the SRAM Rival AXS Max 36T system, which is controlled by the SRAM Rival ETAP AXS 2x12s shifter. This electronic gear system ensures precise and rapid gear changes, whilst the SRAM Rival AXS front derailleur ensures reliable chain guidance. The SRAM RIVAL DUB crankset is available in various lengths, depending on frame size, and, with its 46-33T gear ratio, offers a good balance between speed and climbing ability.

Power is transmitted via the SRAM Press Fit 86.5mm ROAD bottom bracket, in combination with the SRAM XG1250 10-36 12s cassette and the SRAM Rival Powerlock 12s chainring. The Lapierre Alloy handlebars are available in various widths to suit different rider types and are fitted with comfortable Vexgel handlebar tape. The stem, also made from Lapierre Alloy, allows for internal cable routing and is available in various lengths.

The Pulsium SAT 6.0 AXS is fitted with Schwalbe One Raceguard Tubeless Easy tyres in size 700x28, mounted on DT Swiss ER1600 Spline 32 wheelsets. This combination ensures low rolling resistance and high puncture resistance. The Fizik Aliante R5 Manganese saddle offers comfort even on longer rides, whilst the Lapierre Alloy seatpost, with a diameter of 27.2 mm and a length of 350 mm, ensures additional stability.

Overall, the Lapierre Pulsium SAT 6.0 AXS offers a balanced blend of performance, comfort and technology, making it an attractive option for cyclists looking for a high-quality road bike.
