2025 Lapierre Overvolt AM 7.8 Gen 5 Electric Full Suspension Mountain Bike In Circular Grey Glossy

The Overvolt AM 7.8 fluently demonstrates Lapierre's passion for serious mountain biking, combining robust construction with intelligent design to tackle demanding terrain. This electrically-assisted mountain bike delivers the power and capability needed for extended adventures in challenging mountain environments.

At the heart of the system lies the latest Bosch Performance Line CX Gen 5 motor, delivering 85Nm of torque with refined responsiveness and improved efficiency. The substantial 800Wh PowerTube battery provides impressive range for all-day riding, while the integrated mounting system maintains clean frame lines and optimal weight distribution. Together with the Kiox 300 display, this setup offers comprehensive ride data and battery management through an intuitive interface.

The Overvolt AM 7.8 employs a mullet wheel configuration – pairing a 29 inch front wheel with a 27.5 inch rear – to optimise both traction and manoeuvrability. This geometry works in harmony with the 170mm travel RockShox Zeb Base Rush RC fork, which provides reliable damping control across varied terrain. The rear suspension utilises a RockShox Deluxe Select shock with 160mm of travel, creating a balanced platform that maintains composure on technical descents while remaining efficient on climbs.

The drivetrain showcases SRAM's wireless T-Type technology, featuring the S1000 Eagle AXS rear derailleur and Pod shifter for precise, cable-free shifting. The 10-52T cassette range paired with a 34T chainring delivers comprehensive gearing for both steep ascents and fast descents. The system's durability is enhanced by the T-Type chain design, which reduces wear and maintains shifting performance in demanding conditions.

Keeping you firmly anchored to the trail, the Overvolt AM 7.8 rolls on Continental Kryptotal tyres featuring an enduro-specific compound, with the front tyre optimised for cornering grip and the rear for traction and rolling efficiency. The Lapierre eAM+ wheelset features tubeless-ready rims, allowing for lower pressures and improved comfort without compromising puncture resistance.

Finishing components include a Lapierre dropper seatpost with travel ranging from 130mm to 170mm depending on frame size, ensuring proper positioning for both climbing and descending. The SRAM DB8 Stealth hydraulic disc brakes provide consistent stopping power with four-piston calipers and 220mm/200mm rotors for heat management during extended descents.

This blend of advanced motor technology, thoughtful suspension design, and quality components positions the Overvolt AM 7.8 as a capable tool for riders seeking to explore more challenging terrain with the confidence that comes from having power in reserve when needed most.
