Roxy’s Lapierre Overvolt GLP2 Team 2020
As a full-time mountain bike guide and coach having an e-bike as my “spare” bike is perfect: it allows me to address e-bike specific questions during my coaching sessions and have more fun at work! The Lapierre Overvolt GLP2 Team is the most playful e-bike I have ever ridden – yet it’s incredibly stable on techy trails and at higher speeds. With my new NOBL TR41’s it’s super light, with no compromise to stability at all!
The first two things I change on a new bike are the wheels and the saddle. I cannot imagine riding a bike without my NOBL Wheels anymore and I cannot imagine sitting on any other saddle than the SQlab. On this bike I am riding the e-bike specific SQlab 60X model and 70X grips. After all, ergonomics matter.

I love technical, rocky and loose trails (which is what we have predominantly here in Mallorca). Even on my e-bike my carbon rims have been a game-changer for confidence, line-tracking and trail-speed. In the past, I used to take out a little speed to avoid broken rims, but now, with my TR41 e-bike rims I have more fun and less worries! The TR41’s allow me to forget about my rims and concentrate on my skills and clients. Plus, my Industry Nine Hydra hubs turn each pedal kick into a direct boost of power! Something that I think is incredibly important for trail-poise!
