New Lapierre Crosshill CF: The Gravel Bike from the French Brand

Since 2016, Lapierre has entered the world of gravel with its first aluminum Crosshill range, designed for sport/adventure bikes with a bikepacking focus.

GEOMETRY

The new Crosshill CF perfectly reflects our vision of comfort and performance for gravel rides, both on flat terrain and on technical or steep trails, offering every rider confidence. This is our vision of gravel performance. Compared to the aluminum frame, the new Crosshill CF presents itself as follows:

  • A shorter top tube for a compact and comfortable position
  • A straighter seat tube angle (1,5 to 3,5° depending on size) for more efficient pedaling
  • 5mm shorter horizontal chainstays (430mm) for greater responsiveness on restarts without compromising the use of wide section tyres (700x45 max)
  • A 4-5mm higher bottom bracket* to overcome all obstacles
  • Now available in size XXL (6 sizes, from XS to XXL)

  • Controlled lateral stiffness
  • Increased vertical flexibility
  • Light and responsive feel
  • Internal passage of cables and pipes
  • UCI approved for gravel/road competitions
  • Compatible with single or double chainring
