  • I have the 2013 Lapierre ProRace 229 and can honestly say it's one of the best bikes I've ever ridden! I will be upgrading the forks soon as would like some air forks (TK GOLD or REBA's) which will improve the ride even more and make the bike even lighter (it's currently around 12KG so pretty light for a 29er). Over time I will probably uprgade the cassette etc but for now it's fine, the frame on these is tight, and set up is for a quite agressive stance. Overall the bike is amazing ...GET ONE!! :D

    Not great value. Do you have to buy through Evans?
