Progressive frame
The heart of the Lapierre XR 5.9 is its lightweight carbon frame. With a 67-degree headtube angle, this is one of the most progressive cross country full-suspension mountain bikes. The carbon is very lightweight and stiff, which makes for very stable and responsive steering. The cables run through the frame, so they are protected from splashing mud and other dirt. The fork consists of a FOX Rythm 32 Float 3 Air Grip 3 damper, with 3 different lockout modes. The FOX FLOAT DPS, Perf-Series Remote up also has 3 different adjustment modes, allowing you to adjust the MTB as personally and efficiently as possible.

Decent shifting
SRAM SX and GX parts is responsible for this MTB's gear-shifting. These parts make ensure reliable and smooth shifting. The mountain bike has 12 gears and 11-50 cassette. This gives the MTB a very wide shifting range, so you'll be able to reach the top in the right gear, even on steep hills. Thanks to the single-speed crank, you do not have to worry about losing your chain. Moreover, this MTB is also very lightweight. The SRAM hydraulic disc brakes ensure powerful braking, even in adverse conditions. In addition, these brakes are easy to modulate, so you'll be able to nicely cut some corners.

Fast tyres
The tyres on this MTB are Maxxis Rekon Race tyres. These tyres roll smoothly and are very supple. They also have good protection against punctures. However, these tyres do not provide enough grip in very muddy conditions.
