The "Shaper 2.0 W Disc" model from the Lapierre brand from 2022 offers a balanced combination of performance and comfort at a price of EUR 599. The frame is made of Shaper 700c Supreme 4 Alloy and is designed for use with disc brakes, which ensures reliable and consistent braking performance.

The drive is provided by a Shimano TY501 crankset with three chainrings (48-38-28T), whereby the length of the crank arms varies depending on the frame size: 170 mm for size S and 175 mm for M/L.
