In 2006, LAPIERRE™ celebrated its 60th birthday and launched on this occasion a folding mountain bike called Passport. The new “à la carte” program, Web Series, allows riders to choose the components of their road bike with the help of an on-line configurator. Because LAPIERRE™ bikes are assembled in France, riders in Europe can receive their personalized bikes 2 weeks after placing their order with their authorized LAPIERRE™ dealer.
2007 : LAPIERRE introduced their latest advancement in rear suspension in 2007, the OST suspension platform, especially tailored to long-travel bikes. Two mountain bikes using this technology were introduced, the Zesty and the Spicy. The goal of OST was to create the ultimate all-mountain bike with the perfect lightweight blend of versatility, performance, and optimized geometries, for total riding pleasure.
LAPIERRE pushed even further its export activities. Its products are now distributed in most European countries as well as in North America and Asia. LAPIERRE has become an international brand.
