Loading... Please wait...Ready to tackle serious mountain terrain with confidence? The Overvolt AM 4.6 GEN 5 delivers the perfect blend of all-mountain capability and electric assistance for riders who demand performance on challenging trails. This isn't just another e-MTB – it's a purpose-built machine that transforms how you approach technical terrain and steep climbs.
The Overvolt AM 4.6 utilises the latest Bosch Performance Line CX Gen 5 motor, delivering smooth, intuitive assistance that feels completely natural. The default torque rating is 85Nm but this can be increased to 100Nm via settings in the Bosch phone app. This refined drive unit provides the torque and responsiveness needed for technical climbs while maintaining the precise control that serious mountain bikers expect. Paired with a substantial 600Wh Bosch PowerTube battery, you'll have the range needed for extended mountain adventures without compromise.
The wheels feature a mullet configuration – a 29-inch front wheel paired with a 27.5-inch rear wheel. This clever setup maximises the benefits of both wheel sizes, giving you improved rollover capability and stability up front while maintaining the nimble, playful handling characteristics of the smaller rear wheel. The result is a bike that corners with precision and handles technical sections with remarkable confidence.
Suspension requirements are handled by the reliable RockShox Domain Gold fork, offering 170mm of plush travel that soaks up impacts while maintaining precise steering control. This robust fork is designed specifically for aggressive trail riding and provides the performance needed when the terrain gets rough. Working in harmony with the custom Lapierre rear shock, the bike delivers well-balanced suspension that keeps you composed on demanding descents.
The drivetrain centres around Shimano's dependable Cues components, featuring a 10-speed setup with an 11-48T cassette that provides an excellent gear range for both steep climbs and fast descents. The system delivers reliable shifting performance even under the demanding conditions of technical trail riding.
Stopping power comes from Shimano's 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes with 203mm rotors, providing the confidence-inspiring control needed for aggressive descents. The substantial braking surface and powerful calipers ensure consistent performance regardless of conditions.
Rolling on Continental Kryptotal tyres – with the Enduro-spec front tyre optimised for grip and the rear focused on durability – this setup provides the traction and reliability needed for serious trail riding. The generous tyre widths and aggressive tread patterns deliver the confidence you need when pushing limits on technical terrain.
With its robust Suprême 5 alloy frame featuring internal cable routing and modern geometry, the Overvolt AM 4.6 Gen 5 represents Lapierre's commitment to building bikes that perform when it matters most. Whether you're exploring new trails or tackling familiar favourites with renewed vigour, this e-MTB opens up possibilities that extend far beyond traditional mountain biking.
