Description
Who is this bike suitable for?
The 2017 Lapierre Overvolt AM 800 is built to be the do-it-all electric mountain bike. It's new lightweight carbon chassis, revised geometry and 140mm of trail eating travel make it suitable for All Mountain / Trail / Enduro and Gravity riding. Combined with the 2017 Overvolt DWS makes this a truly capable machine with most versatility over wheel sizes & rider preference on mixed terrain.
The ingenious frame design places the battery low down in the centre of the bike, thus using the weight to good effect: a well though-out and inspired solution - EuroBike Awards
New Features
For 2017 Lapierre have been working on a totally new and revised eBike frame, developed in house by 10 times world champion Nico Vouilloz to house a Bosch eBike 500Wh battery at the lowest possible point in the centre of the Overvolt frame.
Lapierre's GLP (Gravity Logic Project) centralises the mass in the eBike frame and allows for greater manoeuvrability and handling. Now on an even lighter full carbon chassis for 2017!
Awarded Gold Winner of the Eurobike Design awards and the 2017 Design & Innovation Awards.
But wait, that's not all Lapierre have been working on for the 2017 Carbon Overvolt All Mountain range, they have developed a new exclusive DWS (Dual Wheel System). This clever system allows the user to interchange between 27.5 and 27.5+ wheels!
By simply inverting the rear hanger & placing the new wheels in the electric bike, the rider can switch between wheel sizes with ease.
If you are stuck between 27.5" and 27.5"+ for 2017 then this is the electric mountain bike for you!
Up front we see the new RockShox Pike RC fully air adjustable 27.5+ fork is built on 150mm travel and 35mm stanchions for ultimate stiffness and strength on the 2017 AM 800 Carbon.
For 2017 Lapierre have opted for the brand new Sram Guide brakes, which replace the Avid X0 trail brakes we were previously used to. These twin piston beauty's offer superior amounts of stopping power, with minimal fade across long descents.
Now you can ascend faster than ever before and of course with the 4 pot brakes on larger rotors, bring your eBike to a stop just as fast when descending!
Overvolt - Are you ready to ride harder, faster & longer?
The 2017 Lapierre Overvolt AM 800 is equipped with Shimano's new 11 speed drivetrain. The 2016 XT rear mech's offer a huge range of gearing from 11 to 42 teeth at the rear.
Giving the rider excellent ratios for both climbing and flying back down the trails.
Up front Lapierre finish the Overvolt Carbon model with Nico's very own signature 760mm wise riser bars and CNC stem.
For 2017 Lapierre have developed an in house internal stealth dropper seat post built in so you can raise and lower the seat at the flick of a switch on the handlebars, whilst on the move.
Adjustable for both uphill and downhill riding with minimal effort. The Overvolt takes it to a whole new level for 2017.
The Overvolt 800 is the mid range eMTB in the carbon range in 2017. Combining the lightweight chassis with 140mm travel makes for a great ride, coupled with the even weight distribution makes for a great ride! Want 27.5+ and Sram EX1? Check out the 2017 900+.
Bosch CX & Intuvia eBike System
The new Lapierre Overvolt AM 800 2017 eBike also features the latest Bosch Performance CX crank drive motor, so you can be sure it's fitted with the latest kit and setup for optimum performance.
The new 250w CX system outputs 75Nm of torque & peaks at 500w! It certainly packs a punch, it will also offer up to 300% assistance on turbo mode.
Featuring 4 levels of assistance & remember you can always turn the power off 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 AM 800 features the brand new Bosch 500Wh PowerPack Battery for 2017 so it hosts the most range possible on a Bosch powered electric mountain bike.
