Lapierre says

Originally introduced in 2001, the legendary X-Control remains the perfect combination of efficiency, performance and comfort. With 100mm of rear travel and our patented FPS2 rear suspension platform, the X-Control is the perfect companion for all types of cross country riding. In carbon or alloy, the X-Control is also available this year in a Race version, to satisfy even more riders' needs.
