Lapierre's short-travel 29er chassis looks promising on paper but how does the complete bike ride on the trail?
Balanced trail geometry
Impressively smooth suspension once it's moving
Crisp pedalling feel despite neutral stroke
Sorted fork and brake spec
Good overall value
Slippery front tyre
Limited dropper drop
Lazy dropper lever
Surplus fork lockout
Bar and grips reduce leverage
Heavy cassette, clunky hub

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.. .
Neatly finished frame with big terrain capability
Not particularly zippy on flatter, more mellow trails

Zesty hit the market, and it’s been through a host of iterations in recent years. What’s the verdict on the latest top-of-the-range Lapierre Zesty AM 927?
Sep 2016 · Mountain Bike Rider
The new Lapierre Zesty AM 327 is long, low and lithe.
Fast and playful on the smoother trail centre runs. Decent value for money and comes with a dropper as standard.
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.

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 …
Fun and lively ride.
Excellent suspension.
It's a Zesty!
Lose the tyres.
