Trailcat SL Pro XT Di2 Mountain Bike

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"The Shimano XT Di2 drivetrain on the Trailcat SL Pro build is flawless. Shifting is always exact, even when I’m hammering on a climb. The Fox Factory 36SL fork makes the front end feel more confident on technical descents compared to the Performance builds. If you’re after a premium setup that mixes efficiency with trail confidence, this is the sweet spot."

The Trailcat SL Pro XT Di2 is crafted for riders who value efficiency and control in a single package. Built on Pivot’s Hollow Core Carbon frame, it offers a responsive ride that feels agile on climbs and stable on descents. The dw-link suspension delivers 120mm of finely tuned travel that transforms every pedal stroke into efficient forward motion, keeping traction high on technical terrain.

Shimano’s XT Di2 electronic shifting defines this build, with precise gear changes at the touch of a button. Paired with a Shimano XT 10–51t cassette and XT Di2 SGS rear derailleur, the drivetrain is tuned for wide-range adaptability and reliability. Race Face Æffect R cranks deliver power through a 32t chainring, balancing climbing gears with downhill speed. The DT Swiss XM1700 wheels with 350 hubs and 36t Star Ratchet internals ensure durability, responsiveness, and a smoother engagement feel under heavy pedaling.

A Fox Factory 36SL fork with GRIPX2 damper and 140mm of travel leads the build, providing excellent small-bump sensitivity and mid-stroke support. The Fox Factory Float rear shock matches perfectly, tuned to keep the bike composed in both open and technical sections. Shimano XT 4-piston brakes with 180mm CenterLock rotors give confident braking on long descents, ensuring control never wavers.

For adaptability, the Trailcat SL Pro XT Di2 integrates Pivot’s Toolshed™ storage, Tool Dock compatibility, and flip-chip adjustable geometry. Tire clearance up to 29 x 2.5in allows customization for conditions, while Maxxis Minion DHRII and Dissector tires deliver the traction and rolling balance trail riders demand. This build is an uncompromising setup for those seeking the benefits of electronic shifting combined with the proven pedigree of Pivot’s trail platform.
