We find the bike of Sam Blenkinsop under the booth of Lapierre – the french brand had many 2014 mountain bikes to present but our eyes were basically attracted by a chromed bike – the one Sam Blenkisop rode during the last world cup at Pietermartizburg

There is a tradition to come in the WC with a custom bike – Sam comes from New Zealand and decides to mix his flag with the one of South Africa, the host country.

Bike : Lapierre DH Team

It was a good game at last Roc d’Azur. It was possible to find some bikes of the team rider in different places of the show. So this one was very easy to find since it was exposed at Lapierre. The DH of Loic Bruni and Emmeline Ragot standed in others booths of team or riders sponsors.

Pendbox system developped by Lapierre offers a clean design but is not the most compact & naturally protected system. That’s why you can see here a custom carbon protection under and a plate to protect rear shock of track projections.
