Description

The Lapierre Zesty has always been a versatile bike that is in its element being ridden all-day over any kind of terrain and for 2020 the range receives its biggest overhaul yet. With a brand-new frame crammed with features and Lapierre s new FIT sizing system, the Zesty AM FIT 5.0 is ready for action.Strong & lightweight Zesty FIT Supreme Carbon frame with 150mm (27.5 ) or 140mm (29 ) travel and integrated storage boxVersatile frame can be converted between wheel sizes and travel using different forks, shocks & wheelsSuper smooth & plush suspension courtesy of a Rockshox Revelation fork & Deluxe ShockSlick shifting 1x12 SRAM Eagle drivetrain with carbon cranks & 11-50t cassette for maximum gear rangeStrong & durable Lapierre wheels with Formula Boost hubs & grippy Maxxis TyresCentral to the Zesty s versatility is Lapierre s new FIT system. While the component specs remain the same, the stock Zesty s FIT system means the size Small is fitted with 27.5 wheels and 150mm travel front and rear, while the Large and Extra-Large sizes use 29 wheels and 140mm travel front and rear. The Medium size is available in either configuration. While these are the stock configurations, the Zesty can be configured differently if you have a spare fork, shock and wheels. By swapping out these components, the Zesty can be converted between the two configurations and since the frame is shared with the new Spicy, can also be converted to a longer travel enduro shredder, just by swapping the fork, shock and wheels. With a few changes then, the Zesty can be 4 bikes in one!The Zesty AM FIT 5.0 uses a strong and lightweight carbon frame with an integrated storage box under the downtube for small items such as a spare inner tube or lightweight jacket. Providing the suspension up front is Rockshox s brilliant Revelation fork, while the rear end is kept planted and under control by a Rockshox Deluxe shock. This setup is great value while offering excellent performance that allows the Zesty to charge hard through rough terrain yet remain efficient enough to ride all-day. Driving you forward is a 1x12 Sram Eagle drivetrain with lightweight carbon cranks providing you with a tough, dependable drivetrain with all the gear range you ll need for both climbing and descending.Finishing off the spec nicely is a set of powerful 4-piston SRAM brakes and tubeless ready Lapierre AM wheels laced to Formula Boost hubs that will take some serious abuse and run smoothly for years to come. The rims are wrapped in Maxxis High Roller II & Minion DHR II tyres that provide exceptional grip in all conditions, yet still roll well to keep the bike feeling lively on flatter terrain and climbs. No trail bike is complete without a dropper post and the Zesty is equipped with an LP dropper seatpost to ensure you can slam the saddle out of harms way on descents yet have it right where you need on a climb at the flick of a remote. Versatile, great value and incredibly fast, the Lapierre Zesty AM FIT 5.0 is a great bike for riders looking for a bike to hit that just loves to be out in the mountains for hour of hour.
