Lapierre Zesty TR 4.9

Where it stands

Priced below the market rate for its equipment, but another bike in its price range is priced further below it in the sizes where both are in stock. That is the only reason it is not the pick.

What Fahrrad XXL lists, and what it has today

This brand publishes no centimetre equivalence we can verify, so the bike appears only when you pick a letter size. This shop prices each size separately.

Where to buy

Fahrrad XXL is the only one of the 22 shops we check that sells this bike.

Price so far

• Fahrrad XXL states an RRP of €3,199 (30% off). That is the shop's claim; we rank on today's price, never on the discount.
