LapierrePulsium

Izcelsme
Sacensībām gatavs izturības šosejas velosipēds. Vēsturiski definēts ar SAT (šoka absorbcijas tehnoloģijas) elastomēru sēdekļa caurulēs; 4. paaudze atsakās no elastomēra par labu '3D cauruļveida' atbilstības dizainam, kas aizgūts no jaunā Xelius DRS. Vieglāks, aerodinamiskāks, agresīvāks nekā iepriekšējais Pulsium — Lapierre pārvieto velosipēdu tuvāk ātram universālam.

Verdikts
+Stiprās puses
- Lighter and more aero than the previous generation: ~100 g frame saving (992 g M) and a claimed 5% aero gain / 6.1 W at 50 km/h.
- Generous 38 mm tire clearance with mudguard mounts — versatile enough to stray onto light gravel and all-road.
- 3D Tubular seatstays deliver compliance (claimed ~5.5% more damping) without the maintenance/age concerns of the old elastomer block.
- Sportier, lower geometry plus integrated GPS mount, top-tube bag and fender mounts — built for fast endurance and ultra-distance.
- Mostly electronic-shifting builds (Shimano Di2 / SRAM AXS) at competitive prices for a carbon endurance bike (from ~€2,600).
−Vājās puses
- Stock 32 mm tires don't use the available 38 mm clearance, leaving comfort and grip on the table out of the box.
- Lower stack and more aggressive fit may not suit riders who chose the Pulsium for a relaxed, upright endurance position.
- No internal frame storage despite the endurance/ultra-distance positioning.
- 992 g frame is only modest by current endurance-carbon standards — it is not a featherweight climber.
- Dropping the signature SAT elastomer is a leap of faith: comfort now rests on tube flex rather than the proven damper, and long-term real-world ride feel is not yet broadly reviewed.

Kam piemērots
Long-distance road rider, sportive/gran fondo, gravel-curious commuter who wants 32–38mm rubber comfort without giving up race responsiveness.
