    Terrible doubt for a newbie

    Thanks Giff, due to "coronavirus" economic crisis i went for a Lapierre Overvolt FS. If i will like it (i live in Bologna, lot of asphalt, even in the hills, before going offroad) I will go for sure on a Full suspended next year. Thanks!

    Terrible doubt for a newbie

    Hi guys, just wanted to follow up with my final decision, out of respect for your help! Since coronavirus REALLY affected my business (models, trade fairs, events, movies as director), I decided for a Front (Lapierre Hovervolt 7.5). It will be ok for this year. If I will like it i will go for a...

    Ok so once the pressure is set it will be "there to stay" ;)? I mean, I just need to go to the bike shop once every two months to check if suspension pressure is fine? I can take care of the wheels so, it's all a matter of suspensions, but i think I can manage it ;) Thanks!

    Just a final advice. Since I am a complete idiot regarding technical stuffs, in case of a FS choice, Would I have to check / fix / set often suspensions or so or I am cool? thanks!

    you live in a wonderful Area! And for your specific Area, A Full Suspended is almost the only good choice :). Thanks again!

    There are a lot of factors to consider, but the key factor is the cost. On my estimate is around 1500 Eur more at least. The second most important factor is the kind of terrain. The third is how much you will use your bike. So, according to point 2 and 3 in my case (2 mostly asphalt, 3 only in...

    Regarding The Radon bike : Just beautiful ( I always prefer darker colours btw) Regarding the Front Vs. Full suspension. I will try to use again a full suspension, yesterday i was so amazed from the Bosch motor I didn't check eventual troubles in pedaling with a full suspension o_Oo_Oo_O

    Terrible doubt for a newbie

    I will let you know ;) better than a soap opera. I only wonder if maybe, as I am a former race bycicle user, and with all the mental patterns of an asphalt guy, going for the very cheap front MTB Lapierre wouldn't be a good choice. Yesterday I tried for some minutes the Focus, it was incredible...

    Hi Akiwi, thanks for the great answer. Still undecided between Focus and Cube, both great honestly ;) I think I will go for the one I can use more on asphalt, it seems (but maybe I am wrong) you can't block rear suspensions on Cube.

    ...but Cube has the Kiox display. In My opinion a huge factor.

    The battery should be 625 for both ;). Consider also that I am also an "asphalt guy" so suspension are important but not a key factor. As I heard you can block the rear suspension on a Focus manually, not sure about Cube.
