Hi guys,

 

I have a chance to buy a Lapierre bike for a good price. Just want to know if you guys know if they are good or not?

anything ridden in the tour is good by my standards..

 

 

 

they are ridden in the tour but remember spano what you sometimes see in the tour is not what you get out the shop and most likely are a bike made stronger in some way or another

Big%20smile standards differ... Anything NOT ridden to a gov. school is good in my books!

Got a few mates who ride La Pierre's, they all seem to enjoy them. As the bouncing bunny says, give Illovo Cycles a tinkle as they are the local agents if you have any questions.

Fd Jeux (sp?) used to ride Lapipi in the tour. Ian Mcleod's old team. They are good bikes.

 

 

 

Got a famous win in 2007 when one of their riders (his name escapes me; I've been inhaling silicone) won a TDF stage in a long breakaway. He'd hit a dog earlier in the stage and ripped his shorts, dispaying a grazed ass. Michael Boogerd was in the break. Anyway the FdJeux dude led the sprint out and he managed to catch the others napping. WAs a great win. THink it was the team's only stage win that tour. Was near the end of the tour, after the Chicken had been booted.
