2017 Pivot Mach 4 Carbon XT Race 1x Complete Mountain Bike

 

If fast, snappy speed is your jam, then you can’t get much better than the 2017 Pivot Mach 4 Carbon XT Race 1x Complete Mountain Bike. We’ve spent some time carving local trails on it, and the proof is in the smiles that the Mach 4 is nothing short of a blast to ride, and this particular build brings the fun at a price point that feels a little bit more attainable. It trades out super shiny bling for a mix of Shimano components that balances durability and precision without sacrificing race-day aspirations, making it the perfect companion for weekend epics and local start lines alike.

The Mach 4 Carbon frame is, simply put, the lightest full-suspension bike Pivot has ever made. But if you’ve ridden one of Pivot’s recent carbon offerings, you know the company’s standpoint on carbon design—stiffness and ride quality come first. Even Pivot’s XC bikes track over rough terrain with unwavering accuracy to give you ample control to ride hard corners and off-camber sections at the edge of sanity.

Suspension duties for the Mach 4 Carbon are handled by the proven DW-link design, which yields 4.5in of smooth travel while counteracting speed-robbing pedaling forces. This translates to race-worthy acceleration and consistent contact with the trail so you can carve corners and rocket up to speed in a flash. Pivot worked closely with FOX on the shock tune, allowing it to work in perfect harmony with the suspension to provide travel that’s responsive, predictable, and uses every available millimeter. On the trail, this translates to a ride feel that mimics a much bigger travel bike on the descents while maintaining that snappy XC speed when the route kicks up.
