Overview

About this bike

Built for tackling everything from Enduro World Cup courses to fast and flowy shuttle runs, the Pivot Firebird compromises nothing in your search for all-mountain versatility. 170mm of front and rear suspension travel lets you confidently blaze through washed-out rock gardens, and the combination of long reach, long front center, and short chainstays provide the high-speed, playful agility we're all after in a long-travel bike. What really sets this bike apart, though, is the pedaling efficiency offered by the dw-link rear suspension design. Pedaling such a leggy machine can seem daunting, but the Firebird's geometry and efficient suspension platform urge you to climb higher to score maximum reward. The Firebird Race XT 1x build gives you a Race Face-driven Shimano XT drivetrain for all-day, no-worry performance no matter where you ride. Shimano Deore hydraulic disc brakes supply all the power you need, and Sun Ringle Duroc wheels wrapped in wide, toothy Maxxis Minions leave nothing to be desired in the strength and traction departments. Fox suspension components precisely complement the Firebird's character with a 36 Performance fork and Float DPX2 shock, while a Fox Transfer dropper seatpost wraps up this clean build that's ready to shred your favorite jump line, park run, or enduro race straight off the showroom floor.
