Expirience with the Pivot Mach 5.5 Carbon Team XTR Fox Live Valve

Ludwig Döhl The Mach 5.5 Carbon is one of the very few enduro bikes that rolls on the smaller 27.5 wheels. And that's a good thing, because in combination with the excellent DW-Link rear end, the result is a top-class trail racer. Thanks to a moderate 66,5 degree head tube angle, the handling is pleasantly balanced. The moderate seating position is likely to be the perfect middle ground for the majority of bikers. On the downhill, however, the Pivot Enduro is left in the dust by its competitors. Apart from this criticism, the sporty orientation makes the Pivot Fully the best climber in the price range below above 8000 Euro. Pivot gives 10 years warranty on the bike.
