The All-New Lapierre XR Gets Sharper, Lighter, and Fully Ready for Modern XC

Jun 2026 · Jordan Villella

The new Lapierre XR keeps a familiar look but updates the suspension placement, feel, and climbing performance.

Highs
  • Completely redesigned for modern XC racing with 120mm travel front and rear.

  • Improved climbing performance with centralized rider position and steeper seat tube angle.

  • Flip chip allows adjustable BB height without affecting kinematics.

  • New suspension layout with anti-squat near 100% at sag for pedaling efficiency and active suspension.

  • Lower shock position lowers center of gravity for better high-speed stability.

  • Asymmetric BB area saves weight and improves shock access.

  • Range includes multiple builds with same core chassis and kinematics.

  • Claimed frame weight 50g lighter than previous version.

  • Fidlock shock cover can be removed to save 44g.

  • Top-end model weighs 10.4kg.

Lows
  • Frame weight reduction only 50g, not massive.

  • Only one water bottle mount.

  • High price for flagship model (€10,000).

  • No Flight Attendant on flagship model.

First Look: Lapierre’s New XR Rejects the Standard XC Blueprint

Jun 2026 · Jessie-May Morgan

There's no horizontal shock to see here, and a hole in the downtube makes for super neat packaging.
