With OST® (Optimized Suspension Technology), Lapierre has created an intelligent suspension platform dedicated to long-travel bikes. Like the FPS2 technology, OST is based on a patented virtual pivot point system.

The patented FPS (Full Power Suspension) platform was presented for the first time in 2001 on the very first X-Control. Since then, this virtual pivot point system has proven its worth and lived through several evolutions

Simplicity, pure lines, and absolute performance: the hardtail segment has always been an important part of the Lapierre collection.

Manufacturing process for the Xelius monocoque frame. The Xelius frame is made with silicone mandrins that are pre-molded to have the exact shape of the inside surface of the frame.
