Expirience with the Pivot Mach 4 SL Team XTR 120mm Fork & Fox Live Valve

Ludwig Döhl With its 120 mm fork, the Mach 4 becomes a real trail rocket. The potent DW-Link rear end can easily keep up with the fork even with a little less travel. We have checked all geometry measures and come to the following conclusion: the Pivot Fully is a very balanced customer. There are bikes with a more sporty, but also with more comfortable seating approach. The Pivot Mach 4 SL Team wants to combine the best of the two worlds with a moderate orientation. For trail lovers, one point dominates: the Pivot Fully scores in the decent with an extremely good geometry, a high-quality suspension and grippy tires. We like: 10 years warranty on the frame!
