The Xelius SL 6.0 model from the Lapierre brand from 2022 is a road bike that is characterised by its high-quality equipment and the use of lightweight materials. The frame is made from New Xelius SL Disc thru axle UD Superlight Carbon, which ensures an optimum combination of lightness and stability. The fork is also made of the same material, which has a positive effect on the riding behaviour.
The Xelius SL 6.0 is equipped with a Shimano Ultegra RD-R8000-GS 11-speed drivetrain, which ensures precise and reliable gear changes. This is complemented by Shimano Ultegra BR8020 2x11s flat mount with Fin shifters and a Shimano Ultegra FD-R8000F front derailleur. The bottom bracket is a Shimano Press Fit SMBB7141B, which contributes to the durability and efficiency of the drivetrain. The Shimano Ultegra FC-R8000 crankset is available in various lengths, depending on the frame size, and offers a gear ratio of 50-34T.
The crankset consists of a Shimano 105 CS-R7000 11-30T 11s, which together with the Shimano HG601 11s chain ensures a smooth drivetrain. The handlebars are made from Lapierre's own alloy, with a width of 400 mm for sizes XS/S and 420 mm for M/L/XL. The handlebar tape is wrapped with Lapierre Vexgel tape to provide comfort and grip.
The stem is also from Lapierre and has a tilt angle of -5.7° as well as different lengths depending on the frame size. The headset is an Acros integrated + Xelius Acros spacer, which ensures precise steering. The tyres are Schwalbe One Raceguard Tubeless Easy in size 700x25, mounted on a DT Swiss E1800 Spline 32 wheelset, which is tubeless ready and equipped with centre lock.
The saddle of the Xelius SL 6.0 is a Prologo Dimension, which is mounted on a Lapierre alloy 3D forged seatpost with a diameter of 27.2 mm and a length of 350 mm. The pedals are VP-335 Clips&Strap, which ensure a secure connection between shoe and bike.
The Lapierre Xelius SL 6.0 is priced at €3599, making it an attractive option for ambitious road cyclists who value quality and performance.
