Who is this bike suitable for?
With 120mm travel and the Bosch Performance motor, the new Lapierre Overvolt HT 900 electric bike is a great all rounder for general Trail Center / XC / Everday hard tail use. The Lapierre Overvolt eMTB takes on its own breed of performance electric mountain biking.
I have been gradually expanding my range and types of terrain on it and so far it's been brilliant!.. It's so nice to have the extra power to keep the bike going. And more importantly even more fun to leave my poor husband for dead on the steep uphills! Tables have been well and truly turned!
New Features
The new Lapierre Overvolt HT 900 is the bigger brother to the HT 500. For 2015 Lapierre have kitted this eBike out with higher grade components to the HT 500.
It also features the Bosch Performance electric bike system for more overall assistance and torque.
The HT 900 features the same chassis as the HT 500 but offers Shimano XT / SLX 10 speed gear system and Deore hydraulic disk brakes.
Lapierre has been working hard to create the ultimate all mountain eBike, using their already proven geometry and design skills and bring this to the eBike scene.
Lapierre's very own Nico Vouilloz (10 times MTB World Champion) has tweaked the design of this eMTB to keep it performing above the rest when it comes to off road performance.
We also move up on the forks to the 120mm travel RockShox Reba RL which are air adjustable for the riders weight. They feature a lock out system for riding uphill or on less bumpy terrain with optimal pedal efficiency.
As with the HT 500 the Lapierre Overvolt HT models are rolling on Mavic 650B double wall alloy rims and Formula sealed bearing hubs. The hubs use a through axle mounting front and rear to ensue a super strong and stiff wheel set designed to hit the trails harder and faster than ever before!
Nico has designed his own 720mm wide Funn handlebars and Lapierre finish the eBike with a Easton stem and NCX suspension seatpost.
This seat post is great at taking the edge out of the back end for ultimate comfort and longer more comfortable distances in the saddle.
It doesn't just absorb the shock of the terrain but it moves back and forth with the rider for ultimate comforta'bility. The Overvolt full suspension electric bike benefits from the new 650B / 27.5" wheel size.
This new wheel is designed with the benefits of the bigger 29" in wheel in mind, so it rolls fast and flows over bumps easier, but uses the 26" wheel characteristics for good maneuverability through tight single track areas.
For a well specc'd agile hardtail eMTB, look no further than the Overvolt HT 900. Want a harder hitter? Check out the FS Overvolts with similar specification and 140mm travel for bigger hits out on the trails.
Bosch Performance System
The new Lapierre HT 900 eBike also feature the latest Bosch Performance crank drive motor, so you can be sure it's fitted with the latest kit and setup for optimum performance. This system outputs 60Nm of torque & peaks at 500w!
It certainly packs a punch, it will also offer up to 275% assistance on turbo mode, while Eco mode offers a more subtle 50% assistance. There are 4 levels of assistance and remember you can always turn it off completely and ride it as a normal bike!
This machine rolls just the same as a normal cycle. In fact the quality in the design, geometry & build make it a true performer! The Lapierre HT 900 features the Bosch 400Wh PowerPack Battery so it hosts the most range possible on a Bosch powered electric bike.

I met Martin Wednesday just gone and after a brief chat about ride style what I've rode in the past and so on, I told Martin I'm a keen road cyclist on my scott CR1 carbon road bike I ended up buying a Lapierre HT 900 E-Bike.
Which I must say after today BLOODY HELL does it go just loved it handle well reposes so good in the local woodland around sussex better then me riding my motor bike? Going to have so much fun for the months to come, E-Bikeshop get the thumbs up from me.
Thank you Martin i will be back for more but I'm afraid that my passion for road bike still live on but best of both worlds!

Now that I have had time to ride & assess the LaPierre properly I would like to thank you for your help in selecting a suitable e-bike to meet my planned riding & preparing it for me .
My plan was to ride green-lanes & the occasional off-road trail but the bike is so capable that it does not matter where I ride it it is just so much fun.
Thanks again for all your help & advice

So I bought a small framed Lapierre Overvolt HT900 from you back in early January 2015 and brought it back with me to Sheffield.
I have been gradually expanding my range and types of terrain on it and so far it's been brilliant. It's been very muddy on the trails until recently though. I'm looking forward to taking it out on more Peak District tracks over the summer.
Just riding it up from my house in Nether Edge to the top of Houndkirk Road near Foxhouses in the Peak District (ie 6.5 miles up hill 1000 feet, mostly off road), drops the range using mostly Eco mode down to around 22 miles, but it perks up again when I start down the other side showing a range of nearer 35 miles. Goes to show how unfit I am. But at least I'm not half dead which is what would have happened on my hybrid bike.
As a contrast, I took it on a back road trip of 17 miles around my son's house in coastal Suffolk - nice, rolling flattish countryside and I was happily averaging 15 - 16 mph with about the same drain on the battery. Still had a range left of about 45 miles. Tyres not the ideal for that sort of riding though!
I've put a rack on the back - and clip on mudguards when it is very muddy. I might change the handlebar grips and upgrade the pedals but it feels a well balanced and easy machine to ride even on the tricky rocky patches on Curbar Edge. It's so nice to have the extra power to keep the bike going. And more importantly even more fun to leave my poor husband for dead on the steep uphills! Tables have been well and truly turned.
