Lapierre’s flagship road Xelius SL is one bike that sees continuous evolution, even if not always obvious. The long time pro tour, stage racing carbon road bike gets lighter, more aero, and better integrated with rim or disc brakes. The new bike has even already won a French national road title, and a couple of stage wins in the recent Vuelta.
