Expirience with the Pivot Trail 429 Pro X01 Live

Ludwig Döhl The Trail 429 Pro wants to impress, especially on long tours with a lot of trails. If you are particularly thirsty, you can also mount a second drinking bottle under the top tube. Anyone who has no concrete preferences when it comes to handling, can´t go wrong with the Trailbike of Pivot. Because his handling is pleasantly balanced. The seating position is sporty. Another strong argument needs to be mentioned: the coherent geometry and the grippy tires will make you smile all the way to the bottom of the descent. The guarantee promise of 10 years ensures trust.
