Offering unparalleled support and confidence, Pivot's Mach 6 boosts over gnarly terrain and big gaps, preserving our flow as we turn every trail obstacle into a new feature. This 27. 5-wheeled trail bike boasts 160mm of front and rear travel and frame geometry dialed for getting us airborne. We're having extra fun aboard this machine on our local trail loops, hitting the side features and gap jumps with more gusto than ever before. The coil shock expertly soaks up the biggest hits, giving the bike a perfected bottomless feel. This full carbon frame with durable but lightweight components keeps the weight down and the strength up, so we're climbing fire roads with ease and sending descents with plenty of peace of mind.

Featuring the Shimano Hyperglide system, the drivetrain works together to create the easiest and most reliable shifting system out there. DT Swiss takes care of wheel duties with the ever-reliable 350 hubs and 1700 series hoops. A large 30mm inner rim diameter supports the max-frame-allowance 2. 6in rubber and creates a tire profile that finds grip in all sorts of conditions. Maxxis supports rubber duties with the ultra-grippy Assegai tires in a 2. 5in widt...
