Lapierre Spicy Team Ei Mountain Bike 2015 - Full Suspension MTB

A high tech enduro race bike, with a winning pedigree, the Lapierre Spicy Team E:i will let you own the trail.

Frame and suspension

A monocoque carbon composite front triangle is combined with a Supreme 6 alloy rear triangle to provide the optimum balance between strength and lightweight. Providing 150mm or rear suspension travel using OST+ suspension technology. This linkage suspension design uses a moving virtual pivot point that eliminates any pedal kickback from the suspension and provides efficient pedaling.

The E:i shock technology takes pedaling efficiency to another level and effectively eliminates any loss of pedal power, even when standing up and stomping the pedals. This is achieved with a clever electronic system which senses when you are pedaling and when the trail is rough.

Two accelerometers - in the bottom bracket and the fork - can sense when the shock needs to be open and when it is best locked out. The default is open, but when the pedals are being turned it will lock out automatically, unless - and this is the clever bit - the fork senses a bump in which case the shock will be opened up again. The overall effect is a shock that is open all the time except when pedaling on smooth ground when it locks out. The settings can be adjusted to fine tune your ride.

Probably the best enduro fork currently on the market the Rockshox Pike Rct3 is buttery smooth and keeps the front end tracking predictably even over the roughest terrain. The tapered head tube and bolt through axle keep things nice and stiff up front and the 12mm through axle stiffens up the rear. The Rockshox Monarch Rt3 rear shock perfectly complements the fork.

Components

The SRAM XX1 drivetrain provides slick trouble free shifting over a wide range of gears and offers excellent chain retention without the need of a chain device.

SRAM Guide brakes are powerful, reliable with great modulation. The tool free adjusters mean that you can fine tune the lever feel. The Rockshox Reverb stealth dropper seatpost provided trouble free saddle height adjustment on the fly.

Probably the most technically advanced enduro mountain bike the Lapierre SpicyTeam E:i will let you ride faster.
