Last year's Pivot Mach 429SL Carbon X01 Eagle Complete Mountain Bike was an award winning combination that Pivot has smartly carried forward into 2017. The sole change is Boosting the rear axle to the 12 x 148mm standard. Those few millimeters serve to amplify the 429SL's climb conquering and descent shredding capabilities. Befitting of its XC race rocket personality, this 429SL gets outfitted with SRAM's one-by 12-speed X01 Eagle drivetrain and Shimano's XT brakes. As an added bonus, boost spacing opens up clearance for 27.5+ wheels should you want to bump up the volume for an extra plush off-season ride.
As with its predecessors, the Mach 429SL enjoys a svelte, race-worthy weight thanks to Pivot's proprietary hollow-core, internal-mandrel technology—the same process that was employed for the original 429 Carbon. Pivot did scrutinize the 429 layup, though, refining both the structure and the composite materials used. As a result of those efforts, the podium-hungry Mach 429SL Carbon is one of the lightest full-suspension frames Pivot has ever made, and it doesn't involve any sacrifices to stiffness or ride quality.
The Mach 429SL Carbon features a proven DW-link suspension design, which yields 100mm of smooth travel while also counteracting speed-robbing bob forces. This translates to consistent contact with the trail and snappy, responsive acceleration. Stand up and stomp on the pedals and you’ll be amazed at the grip you get on loose dirt. Pivot worked closely with FOX on the Float DPS Kashima shock tune, so the 429SL's suspension and shock combine to provide travel that’s responsive, predictable, and uses every available millimeter. As with prior iterations of the Mach 429, you’ll feel like you’re riding a bike with much more travel.
Full-length internal cable routing—including internal routing for a dropper post—keeps everything tidy and quiet with sleek, clean lines. This frame can be paired with a 100mm fork for pure XC speed, but here it’s presented with a 120mm FOX 34 Factory for increased versatility and confidence on rough trails. The longer fork slackens the ride a bit, but with DW-link suspension in back, the Mach 429SL rides high in its travel, so you won’t experience any front-end wavering on climbs.
