Pivot Enduro Gets Long & Low

Pivot’s renowned Mach 6 Carbon is longer, lower and sets a new benchmark for enduro / aggressive trail bikes. The new design benefits directly from Pivot’s extensive gravity design experience – the perfect combination of progressive geometry and uncompromising pedaling capability – making it the right choice for dropping into black-diamond terrain and hitting technical features at race pace. From peak to podium, the Mach 6 Carbon is enduro performance, redefined.

Carbon Frame and Linkage Design
With our exclusive hollow core internal molding process and the right combination of carbon materials and design features, we have created the Mach 6 Carbon to be an incredibly durable and light chassis, with levels of stiffness and strength that are comparable to our downhill designs. Large tube cross sections, double wishbone rear triangle, ultra-stiff clevis and linkage, and large, suspension specific, EnduroMax bearings all contribute to class leading power transfer and the point and shoot ride quality essential in a top flight enduro race bike.

DW-Link® And Fox Suspension
The Mach 6 Carbon features acclaimed dw-link® suspension, dialed for long travel applications. The dw-link®’s famed anti-squat delivers non-stop traction, while the variable wheel travel path provides unmatched square-edge bump absorption and control on technical descents. The responsiveness and bottomless feel of the Mach 6 is matched only by the exceptionally efficient climbing capability for faster, easier transfers – getting you to the next descent before everyone else.
The Mach 6 Carbon is spec’d with the new FOX Factory Kashima Float DPX2 shock with the EVOL air sleeve, tuned specifically for enduro and trail applications. The new Float DPX2 features X2 oil flow architecture in a lighter weight, better pedaling package for optimized performance in enduro / aggressive trail applications as well as offering an incredibly wide range of individual tunability. The EVOL air sleeve on the Mach 6’s DPX2 significantly reduces the force required to initiate travel, for the ultimate in small bump compliance and better bottom-out resistance. When combined with the ultra-low friction Kashima coating, this design offers an incredibly plush feel with a wide range of damping adjustments. The Float DPX2 also offers three on-the-fly lever adjustments using the new Open, Medium, and Firm options with an additional adjustment for tuning low speed compression on the open setting, to suit a wide range of rider weights and preferences. While dw-link® is inherently efficient in every setting, the firm option is great for long fire road climbs or between stage transfers. These shock features are direct complements to dw-link® suspension tuning and patented position-sensitive anti-squat, giving riders even better traction on steep climbs and over rough trail.

To match Mach 6 Carbon’s rear suspension, we’ve paired it with the newest 160mm FOX 36 fork now featuring an EVOL air spring and updated upper tubes for unparalleled small bump sensitivity – it’s the perfect fork to match any trail rider’s need for high-performance, balanced handling on every part of the trail.

Pro-level Enduro Performance in a Shred-Ready Aluminum Package
The Mach 6 Aluminum brings Pivot’s progressive long and low enduro/trail geometry to our top tier alloy design, offering best-in-class stiffness, power transfer, and suspension performance to every rider who’s ready to tackle new, challenging terrain. With stunning uphill capability and downhill handling that beats any bike in its class, it’s the choice for mastering every part the mountain.

New Enduro / Aggressive Trail Geometry
The new Mach 6 Aluminum incorporates the same progressive measurements as the new Mach 6 Carbon. With a new, slacker, 65.75 degree head angle, steep 74 degree seat angle, and Pivot’s long travel, downhill-influenced linkage, the 155mm travel Mach 6 Aluminum offers ultra-stable high speed handling, and the ability to make short work of black diamond descents. This progressive design enables every rider and enduro racer to conquer more technical terrain.
When climbing, the newly steepened seat angles and extended cockpit of the Mach 6 Aluminum help to increase traction and keep the bike balanced and centered on the most technical uphill challenges, enabling riders to conquer climbing obstacles they never thought possible.

Smaller riders benefit from customized geometry in every frame size. While sizes Medium, Large and X-Large see significant increases in top tube length, sizes Small and X-Small remain compact, in keeping with our rider-size-specific design philosophy, while still offering the climbing advantages of the steeper seat angle, and a nimble, capable handling on descents.

Aluminum Frame and Linkage Design
The Mach 6 Aluminum utilizes next generation, variable wall thickness, hydroforming technology to create complex multi axis-tube shapes. This forming method enables our engineers to vary the internal wall thicknesses within extremely precise tolerances and to offer similar strength and stiffness as found in our Mach 6 Carbon, with only a small increase in overall weight. The Mach 6 Aluminum utilizes the same ultra-stiff clevis and linkage, and large, suspension specific, EnduroMax bearings as its carbon brother, for best-in-class power transfer and the precision handling essential in any enduro/trail race bike.
