The shop's feature list
- Pivot Switchblade Ride Factory 29" Mountain Bike for Trail and Enduro use The Pivot Switchblade is the Swiss army knife of descent-oriented mountain bikes. With 142 mm of rear travel and 160 mm up front, it hits the sweet spot between agile handling, responsiveness, and downhill performance when the trail gets rough. The Fox Factory suspension keeps you confidently on line, while the solid SRAM DB8 4-piston brakes deliver clear and consistent braking control. Precise shifting and a wide gear range are handled by the SRAM Eagle Transmission, which in its mechanical version focuses on the essentials and is easy to use. You benefit from the high stiffness and low weight of the carbon frame, giving you more control and riding fun. Whether on your local trails, an enduro track, or in the bike park – the Switchblade is ready when you are.
