A bike with lower gearing will be easier to ride up steep hills, while a higher top end means it will pedal faster down hills.

Lapierre Zesty TR 5.9 review

Jul 2020 · Guy Kesteven

Lapierre's short-travel 29er chassis looks promising on paper but how does the complete bike ride on the trail?

Highs
  • Balanced trail geometry

  • Impressively smooth suspension once it's moving

  • Crisp pedalling feel despite neutral stroke

  • Sorted fork and brake spec

  • Good overall value

Lows
  • Slippery front tyre

  • Limited dropper drop

  • Lazy dropper lever

  • Surplus fork lockout

  • Bar and grips reduce leverage

  • Heavy cassette, clunky hub

Lapierre Zesty AM 5 Ultimate review

Apr 2019 · Tom Marvin

Bikes, such as the Vitus Escarpe use a similar design to good effect, and while the Lapierre displays similar traits (good small bump sensitivity, ‘bottomless’ feel through bigger hits), it’s not quite as smooth as the Vitus, partly thanks to the use of a more basic RockShox Deluxe RT shock.. .

Highs
  • Neatly finished frame with big terrain capability

Lows
  • Not particularly zippy on flatter, more mellow trails

Lapierre Zesty AM 327 (2016) first ride - MBR

Sep 2016 · Mountain Bike Rider

The new Lapierre Zesty AM 327 is long, low and lithe.

Highs
  • Fast and playful on the smoother trail centre runs. Decent value for money and comes with a dropper as standard.

Lows
  • Chunky-looking frame is a tad heavy, garish colour, felt a little too long on a couple of really tight switchbacks.

With 27.5in wheels and 120mm of rear travel, the Zesty XM replaces last years Zesty TR 29er. But was the wheel change the right move? Wil investigates.

Tested: Lapierre Zesty XM 427

Jun 2016

Well known for e:I Shock bikes, their electronically adjusted suspension design that senses the terrain and rider input to make constant adjustments to the rear shock, it is time to try out a Zesty without any batteries or wires. And an aluminium frame too, sitting at a more affordable price point of $4799. We’ve had …

Highs
  • Fun and lively ride.

  • Excellent suspension.

  • It's a Zesty!

Lows
  • Lose the tyres.

  • 10-speed double chainring limits upgrading
