Expirience with the Pivot Mach 6 Pro XT XTR – Air

Ludwig Döhl The Mach 6 Pro 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. The geometry is moderate and makes for a balanced handling. Due to the interplay of a relatively long top tube and a low stack, the riding position is sporty. If you love flying down steep, rocky and loamy trails, the Pivot Mach 6 Pro doesn't really suit you. Other manufacturers build Enduro in the same price range that are more focused on descends. And finally, we need to emphasize, that Pivot installed better wheels at a price of 8099 Euro than the competition. We like: 10 years warranty on the frame!
