The 2021 XELIUS SL 9.0 DISC model from Lapierre offers an impressive combination of advanced technology and high-quality equipment, specially developed for demanding road cyclists. The frame of the bike is made of XELIUS SL DISC THRU AXLE UD SUPERLIGHT CARBON, which not only ensures outstanding lightness, but also remarkable stiffness and stability while riding.

The bike is equipped with VP 335 Clips&Strap pedals, which provide a secure grip. The SHIMANO PRESSFIT SMBB7241B bottom bracket contributes to the efficiency of the drivetrain. The LAPIERRE CARBON handlebars are available in different widths to suit the rider's individual needs, while the LAPIERRE VEXGEL TAPE ensures a comfortable grip. The LAPIERRE stem is available in different lengths and offers an 8° tilt to allow a customisable riding position.

The FSA 1"1/8 1.5" Orbit C 40 ACB headset ensures smooth steering and control. The LAPIERRE ROAD DISC 38 CARBON CENTERLOCK tyres offer excellent grip and stability on the road. The FIZIK ARGO VENTO R5 saddle and the LAPIERRE CARBON LIGHT seatpost measuring 27.2x350mm contribute to the rider's comfort, even on longer rides.

All in all, the XELIUS SL 9.0 DISC is a well thought-out road bike that, with its high-quality components and lightweight design, is ideal for performance-orientated riders who value speed and efficiency.
