Lapierre Overvolt AM 9.8 800Wh Electric Mountain Bike - SRAM GX AXS

The Overvolt AM 9.8 stands as Lapierre's premium electric all-mountain offering, engineered for riders seeking uncompromising performance across demanding terrain. This full-suspension e-MTB combines trail versatility with enduro-inspired capability, delivering the muscle needed for technical climbs and the control required for aggressive descents.

The ample torque comes from Bosch's cutting-edge Performance Line CX motor in its fifth generation form (BDU384), featuring refined torque delivery (optionally up to 100Nm) alongside improved connectivity and response. This advanced drive system generates substantial climbing assistance while preserving the intuitive pedalling dynamics that seasoned mountain bikers value. The high-capacity 800Wh PowerTube battery extends your riding boundaries considerably, enabling deeper exploration of remote trails without concerns about power depletion curtailing your adventures.

Fox's Performance Elite suspension technology anchors the bike's trail capability, with the acclaimed 38 Float fork offering 170mm of controlled compression up front. This dependable fork manages everything from technical root sections to loose rocky terrain, while the complementary Fox Float X Performance Elite rear shock provides progressive compression characteristics that suit the bike's aggressive geometry. This suspension duo delivers the compliance needed for marathon rides and the firmness demanded when attacking challenging sections.

Lapierre's adoption of mixed wheel sizes – combining a 29-inch front with a 27.5-inch rear – brings measurable benefits to trail performance. The larger front contact patch maintains forward momentum and improves obstacle clearance, while the compact rear wheel enhances manoeuvrability and reduces overall mass. This configuration optimises both ascending traction and descending agility, creating a bike that excels whether grinding through technical switchbacks or flowing through high-speed trail sections.

The transmission revolves around SRAM's innovative GX Eagle AXS T-TYPE setup, providing wireless precision across its 12-speed range. The wide-ratio 10-52T cassette accommodates everything from punishing climbs to rapid trail sections, while the AXS wireless technology ensures dependable, rapid gear changes regardless of pedalling load. Braking duties fall to SRAM's Maven Bronze hydraulic discs, with their four-piston configuration offering excellent feel and unwavering performance across varied conditions.

Constructed around Lapierre's Suprême 5 aluminium chassis with seamlessly integrated battery housing, the Overvolt AM 9.8 represents a refined approach to electric mountain biking. Whether targeting previously inaccessible climbs or simply extending your trail time, this e-MTB provides the advanced engineering and durable construction necessary for committed all-mountain riding.
