The frame has been designed for use with an even shorter stem than the Edge XM, with an even longer frame and slacker head angle that is teamed to a wide handlebar to offer incredible control and confidence inspiring handling, so you can push the bike harder without feeling out of control. The 827+ also features 148x12mm Boost axle spacing, making in compatible with the latest wheels and high volume trail tyres. The 35mm stem and 740mm wide handlebar provide excellent control over rough terrain. Further boosting confidence and control when descending is the LP Stealth dropper seatpost. With a handlebar mounted remote to drop the saddle out of the way when descending, the Edge AM 827+ becomes a breeze to pilot down the steepest trails with ease.Smoothing the bumps is a 120mm travel Rockshox Recon RL Solo Air suspension fork. The Recon RL provides excellent performance for this price point, offering smooth suspension travel to reduce fatigue and improve control. Bringing your speed under control is a set of powerful Shimano hydraulic disc brakes, which offer plenty of power and excellent modulation so you can easily keep your speed under control. Powering you along is a 1x11 speed Shimano SLX/XT drivetrain. Taking influence from the latest breed of single chainring drivetrains of much more expensive bikes, the 1x11 SLX/XT drivetrain offers incredible shifting performance as well as a Shadow Plus rear derailleur to keep the chain taut over rough terrain. Not only does this keep the chain firmly in place, it also keeps the bike quiet. It is also much lighter and easier to use than a traditional double or triple drivetrain.Lightweight 32 hole wheels with Boost hubs and wide WTB ST i40 rims will withstand a lifetime of abuse and are wrapped in grippy but fast rolling 2.8 WTB Ranger tyres that provide excellent grip and comfort off-road. With a solid spec and a frame that begs to be ridden hard, the Lapierre Edge AM 827+ is the perfect bike for riders looking for a confidence inspiring hardtail that doesn't break the bank.Size Chart:
