What a gorgeous machine - such a lovely mix of form & function. Loved watching Demare ride this in last year's Giro, hopefully you'll get some great results on yours once the road season gets underway properly!
I thought the Colnago was a superb piece of kit, this takes it too another level, clean lines, cool paint job, and you have already done it justice with the TT.
I have the 2019 Aircode and it is an absolutely superb bike cannot recommend it enough. I have always liked aero bikes anyway but it does feel super fast and handles really well. I do like this models paint job though looks amazing.
I knew that LaPierre has a special design / idea how to get the flex / comfort with that unique seatpost & frame junction. Please do a video on this to show and explain how that system works and how it feel when riding the bike, thank you.
YES. I've been looking for a good video on this bike for a while. It's the current front runner for my next bike. Looks great and you get good stuff for the money compared to some of the competition. The big gripe I have though is not being able to pick the frame colour.
I managed to get one last weekend! 😀😀 it’s truly phenomenal….The colour is so much better in the flesh, Di2 is a game changer, i love the integration of everything also. If you’re looking for a Lapierre then try Graham Weigh bikes in Chester, where i bought mine….it was worth the train fare from London
There is a guy that rides past my house on an older AirCode that's black and pink and it looks phenomenal. If I could spare the cash it would be top of my list
@@chrisopie87 That chain is filthy Chris, you should be ashamed of yourself! You'll have to up your game in 20+ years time when you're slow enough to be signed up by the legendary Goonhilly Team Skyve, we've got standards you know... Admittedly, those standards are exceptionally low, change on a daily basis and nobody knows what they are (except for the stipulation that a minimum of 1 pasty a week must be consumed), but they're still standards!
The courshift paint is amazing and the frame is so pretty. Thinking of converting my tt bike from 2x10 to 1x11 as I hardly use small ring,(mainly flat courses locally) do you think the oval chain ring will help with that little bit extra on the couple of hills?
Hey, i am thinking about getting an aircode drs too. If you want to change your stem or slam it like you did, is it an easy procdure like with an ordinary old school road bike or do you have to cut the brake lines to remove the stem because of the cable integration?
Hey chris, I just recently purchase the same version aircode drs 7.0 exactly like yours. Question here, does the bike etube compatible with wahoo or garmin. If yes, mind sharing how to connect. if not, what should I get? Thanks in advance.
I'm considering this bike right now... How did it turn out? Also: does the sizing turn out rather large or small? For instance, my focus izalco max is an XXL (61) and my giant contend ar is a L (58)...
I would say the sizing is closer to that of Giant. I really enjoyed the bike whilst I had it. Lovely handling, beautiful colour and fast. Good luck with your decision!
@@chrisopie87 I don’t blame you ,the marketing has made us all think that disc is better ,and I know that you are a pro and deep inside u might be loving rim brakes too
I had to watch this locked in my bathroom so my bikes couldn't see what I was watching...
Haha, best comment of the day!!
Lapierre really do make some of the prettiest frames out there, and you can't go wrong with a chameleon paint scheme. Lovely!
Couldn't have said it better myself! 😄

Fantastic looking bike Chris - love the paintwork. Really interesting junction between the top tube and seatpost.
I thought the Colnago was a superb piece of kit, this takes it too another level, clean lines, cool paint job, and you have already done it justice with the TT.
Can't go wrong with that paint job indeed!
best looking bike in pro peloton this year I will say.
Marvelous bike! That's the best looking bike lapierre has ever made in my opinion. Have some fun with it, and I hope you'll get good results too 💪🚴
Thank you, I'd find it hard to argue against that!
I have the 2019 Aircode and it is an absolutely superb bike cannot recommend it enough. I have always liked aero bikes anyway but it does feel super fast and handles really well. I do like this models paint job though looks amazing.
Completely agreed with this!! Especially the handling, that's carried over nicely to this version!
Love the bike, but that color is sick!!! 🙌🏽. Can’t wait to to see you film some rides with it.
All the aircode range look so good. I love the red one but this green one is something else
I knew that LaPierre has a special design / idea how to get the flex / comfort with that unique seatpost & frame junction. Please do a video on this to show and explain how that system works and how it feel when riding the bike, thank you.
Looks sick, ready to go fast and break the speed of sound.
Hehe.
Stunning bike Chris.
Thank you!!

That bike has some beautiful lines, great example of what you can do with carbon fiber. 👍
Stunning looking bike.

Absolutely beautiful looking bike!!!!!.
What a weapon! Looks mint!
🔥🔥🔥 colour!!
Stunning bike Chris..👍🏻
Thank you!!
Very nice bike! :)
Thank you!!

Stunning bike
My fist bike was a Xelius, lovely bike
really awesome bike for a very afordable price point, given the components it has
Awesome bike.
Super machine, le must !
Looks awesome
Thank you!!
Wasn't there an issue with the headset coming loose? After how long riding it did that issue appear?
What a bike!!!!
Thank you!

Di2 ultegra rather than Dura ace?
Nice bike 😊👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you!!

How does this hold up several years on? Still think it's a pretty bike
I think, you're a lucky man. Wow
Chris you never really talked about the wheels and it appears that there were two different sets in the shots, interested to know more detail. Cheers
Hey! Where is the Di2 Battery unit located equipped in this unit? And is it already equipped with a Di2 wirelessunit?

Sick bike
It is a beast!
This looking better than tarmac sl7 for my opinion
Hey Chris any physio’s you’d recommend in Cornwall? I’ve got a MCL that needs sorting
Looks great, wanna know about those deep wheels tho😍
I'm considering this bike right now... How did it turn out? Also: does the sizing turn out rather large or small? For instance, my focus izalco max is an XXL (61) and my giant contend ar is a L (58)...

Strange that the thru-axle doesn't screw from the brake side !
May I know the bike weight and size?
Hi Chris I really want to join your team when I'm older how so I do this
If it had rim brakes ,it would have been more aero ,lighter and hence faster!
but then it wouldn't have discs :-)
@@chrisopie87 I don’t blame you ,the marketing has made us all think that disc is better ,and I know that you are a pro and deep inside u might be loving rim brakes too
What size bicycle is that?
Why did you left gcn?
Weren't you guys on Colnago before? Quite a demotion.
weight?
He says in the video if you watched it 🙄
@@tomrachellesfirstdance7843 i missed it, what is it?
8.5kg is the quoted weight
Looks good! You'll need to recreate your intro on that bike too so we can compare you flying past the camera.. 👍💪
