2018 Pivot Cycles Switchblade TEAM XTR Di2 1x 27.5+

Overview

About this bike

Purpose-built to meet the demands of enduro and aggressive trail riding, Pivot’s Switchblade is a versatile ripper with a huge advantage no matter where you shred. Combining modern geometry tweaks with a stiff and lightweight carbon frame gives you both unmatched high-speed stability through chunky terrain and effortless split-second manuals over seemingly impossible obstacles. With a 135mm-travel double wishbone rear triangle design employing dw-link’s anti-squat and variable wheel travel path, the Switchblade achieves the best performance in high speed and technical sections while also maintaining precise handling and an efficient, poppy ride. A 150mm Fox 36 Factory FIT4 fork attacks obstacles relentlessly while a Fox Factory DPS EVOL shock expertly handles spring and damping duties in the rear. This Team XTR Di2 1x build features Shimano's advanced XTR Di2 drivetrain, propelled up by a Race Face Next SL carbon crankset, and effortlessly delivering precision shifts. XTR Trail hydraulic disc brakes follow up with tremendous power and svelte weight, while the Reynolds Enduro carbon and Industry Nine 27.5+ wheelset teams up with 2.8-inch Maxxis rubber to carve through dirt with sharp precision and insane traction. A Fox Transfer dropper post and Phoenix carbon handlebar complete the stellar spec, giving you an outstanding all-terrain, all-conditions ride.
