After a couple of months of searching through 2009 & 2010 models i finally decided to try the 2010 Trek EX 8 & the 2010 Stumpy. Went to Evans to try them out but they only had stock at their central warehouse, the sales guy said "we`ve got a stumpy elite in your size, sit on that to check the size, then we can order a tester from the warehouse", sound, sits on it, gropes it, ogles it and spots another peach next to it too. "what size is that one there?" "thats a medium, wanna try it?" "YES!" anyway... i`ve just come home with one of these:

    link says "product not found"

    Looks from the link wording that it maybe a Lapierre of some sort??

    Come on...don't keep us in suspense..

    mmmm nice zesty - much as i love my spesh their is just something about lapierre bikes i like 8)
  • i`ve always admired lapierres from a distance, with them being expensive and all, i was also determined to get an all black frame but this just stood out and begged to be bought. it genuinelly is better looking in the flesh too... better pics to follow.
    thanks guys :D:D:D

    Did you pay for that in Cash ??? Or you paying it up ????

    If so how much you per month [ Figures may differ from website hence my question ]

    Plus you must have more money than sense ...

    Some would say "pics or it didn't happen".


    I wouldn't say that.
