Lapierre Xelius DRS SE ALPINE

Xelius DRS “SE” Special Edition in collaboration with ALPINE

After the 8.0 version, the new Xelius DRS arrives — earning the prestigious “SE” designation: Special Edition, and becoming part of the exclusive partnership with Alpine. This 2025 edition reveals a bold character and regal style. The new queen of professional racing (already boasting numerous victories) stands out for its minimalist aesthetics that highlight its futuristic lines: from the 3D Tubular to the down tube, every detail is crafted with absolute precision. The refined design, clean geometry, and flawless component integration deliver top performance not only on flat terrain but also on climbs.

According to Romain Bardet, the iconic climber of Team Picnic PostNL and multiple Tour de France stage winner, this bike is “extremely responsive — in the mountains, it delivers truly unique emotions.”

The perpetual quest for wide open spaces is embedded in its DNA. A pure fighter, the Xelius is a competition bike that seeks both escape and speed. Fast on the flat, agile in the valleys, it truly excels on steep climbs thanks to its responsiveness and constant comfort. Lightweight, race-focused, and fully aligned with the most demanding standards, its mastery of high performance gives it an edge over the rest: top cyclists and triathletes alike choose it when aiming for victory.

Climb to become the KOM

To beat your rivals — or your own records — the Xelius is an indispensable ally. On the most legendary mountain passes, it stands out for its exceptional reactivity, made possible by patented 3D technology, which adds stiffness around the seat tube while optimizing power transfer between the upper and lower body. This engineering ensures powerful seated pedaling and explosive sprints when standing.

Every component contributes to its superiority: SRAM RED AXS drivetrain, DT Swiss ERC1100 Carbon wheels — nothing is left to chance.
