'13 Pivot Cycles

So good you'll feel like you're cheating, Pivot's Mach 5.7 has the chops to make you a better rider. Whether you're scaling steep grades or pointing it down a rocky chute, you'll dig the 145mm of plush, efficient dw-link/Fox rear travel that offers unreal traction and out-of-this world bump absorption. For even more trail-shredding prowess, the 5.7 is outfitted with a tapered head tube, 142x12mm rear through-axle and dialed geometry that all combine to let you slice and dice corners and sail confidently down the rowdiest tech sections. Up front, a 150mm Fox fork gives you point-and-shoot steering precision and silky travel. And, Shimano throws in a 2x10 XT group spinning DT Swiss wheels that are hauled down by Shimano discs. An FSA bar, stem and post complete the build.
