Lapierre SPICY CF TEAM

The Lapierre SPICY CF TEAM from 2025 presents itself as a high-performance enduro bike that is in the upper class with a price tag of EUR 10,000. The frame of the bike, the Lapierre Spicy CF, is designed for post-mount disc brakes and offers 172 mm of suspension travel. The permissible total weight is 120 kg, which indicates a robust design.

The brake system of the SPICY CF TEAM is equipped with Sram Maven Silver components, which are made from aluminium. 200 mm brakes are used both at the front and rear, which are supplemented by Sram DB Rotor HS2 rounded brake discs. The brake levers are also made of aluminium and have a stealth design.

A Sram X0 T-Type AXS 12s system, which is operated with a Sram AXS POD shifter, provides the gears. The crankset consists of Sram X0 T-Type DUB 12s in a carbon version, while the cassette is a Sram XS-1295 X0 Eagle T-Type with a gear range of 10-52T. The bottom bracket is a Shimano BSA MT810 with BSA 73 standard.

The bike's suspension is provided by a RockShox ZEB Ultimate fork with 180 mm travel and a RockShox Vivid Air shock with 172 mm travel. The handlebars, a Renthal Fatbar 35, measure 800 mm in width and have a rise of 30 mm. The grips are from Lapierre, while the stem is a Renthal Apex 35 A-Head model.

The wheelset consists of DT Swiss EXC1501 rims, which are fitted with Schwalbe Magic Mary Evo tyres at the front and Schwalbe Big Betty tyres at the rear. The saddle comes from WTB and is the Volt model with a width of 142 mm, mounted on a Lapierre dropper seatpost with an adjustment range of 130 mm.

The geometry of the bike is determined by a reach of 460 mm, a head tube angle of 64 degrees and a seat tube angle of 78 degrees. The head tube length is 115 mm, the chainstay length is 440 mm and the wheelbase measures 1256 mm in total. Further details such as the bottom bracket drop of 15 mm and the fork pre-bend of 44 mm round off the well thought-out design.

Overall, the Lapierre SPICY CF TEAM combines high-quality components and well thought-out geometry to offer optimum control and performance on demanding trails as well as on fast descents.
