So far my favorite out of all of the bikes I currently and have owned.
Pros Lightweight, Great climber, FAST! ei is amazing. Too bad more bike manufacturer's don't carry it. Love having the computer decide when to lock and unlock the rear suspension.
Cons Could use a tad more travel in the front. Still trying to find that sweet spot for air pressure in the fork.
In response to previous review that states Rockshox EI doesn't work. Well, I just bought the Lapierre XR 529 and the Rockshox EI works fine. Maybe they need to troubleshoot it or send it back could be a default or maybe they need to charge the battery pack. I totally love the bike.
Pros where to start? A totally well rounded machine.
Cons For a cross country MTB I can't see any cons.
