Происхождение
Аэро-шоссейный велосипед — платформа Lapierre для максимальной скорости и спринта. Равнинный аналог ориентированного на подъёмы Xelius. На нём ездили спринтеры Groupama-FDJ (эпоха Демаре). Гоночная конструкция с дисковыми тормозами, полной внутренней прокладкой, трубками, производными от NACA.

Характеристики
- Рама
- UD carbon monocoque, ~900 g (size L). Third-gen DRS layup with truncated NACA aerofoil tube profiles; seatstays bypass the seat tube and merge into the top tube to free the upper seat tube for vertical flex (claimed +12% rear compliance, 13% faster in the wind tunnel vs the previous Aircode SL).
- Вес
- kg
- Трансмиссия

Вердикт
+Достоинства
- Genuinely fast aero platform — wind-tunnel-validated tubing and deep DT Swiss ARC 1100 wheels make it competitive with pro-level superbikes.
- Crisp, responsive race handling with a sharp steering edge, yet stays composed rather than twitchy.
- Stiff, efficient pedalling — the frame and drivetrain transfer power with little flex loss.
- Solves classic aero-bike pain points: only ~7.7–7.9 kg and a claimed 12% gain in rear compliance.
- Versatile cockpit — twin fittings on the aero bar accept clip-on extensions, turning it into a part-time TT machine.
- Premium spec for the money on the 8.0 (Ultegra Di2 + carbon wheels) plus distinctive looks.
−Недостатки
- Aggressive, forward, near-TT riding position is hard to sustain unless you're very flexible — not for riders who can't touch their toes.
- Stock zero-offset seatpost only; no setback option at launch limits fit for traditional 'roadie' positions.
- Stock 25 mm tyres feel harsh on rough roads — reviewers wanted the 28 mm option for real-world surfaces.
- Aero-first design means it's heavier than dedicated lightweight climbing bikes (e.g. the stablemate Xelius).
- Proprietary integrated cockpit/seatpost reduce fit flexibility and complicate maintenance.
