Overview
About this bike
Pivot's 167mm-travel Firebird boasts the DNA of 6 Downhill World Championships. Hold on though, that's just the beginning. This rig shreds downhills without penalizing you on the ups with a dw-link/Fox shock rear end that gives you monster traction without squatting or bobbing. The floating rear shock makes the Firebird fully active at every point in its travel to suck up small bumps and devour big hits at any speed. For lightning-quick shifts, the front derailleur features Pivot's ingenious floating mount. This design makes it impossible to drop your chain or get chain suck. And it keeps getting better. Up front, this big ripper sports a 1.5-inch head tube with a 170mm Fox 36 fork. Plus, the XT Kit rocks a Shimano 3x10 drivetrain, XT discs, DT Swiss wheels and Gravity controls, too.
