Pivot Switchblade V2 - 2021, Medium

The 2021 Pivot Switchblade V2 is a versatile masterpiece of engineering, designed to dominate everything from chunky desert technical lines to fast alpine flow trails. Pivot Cycles, led by Chris Cocalis, completely redesigned the Switchblade for this model year, introducing a vertical shock layout that utilizes the dw-link suspension to provide a more progressive leverage rate and better integration with modern coil and large-volume air shocks. This Medium frame in "Horizon Blue" is constructed using Pivot’s proprietary Hollow Core Carbon molding process, resulting in a frame that leads the class in stiffness-to-weight performance.

This build is a high-performance custom curation. It features a full Fox Factory Kashima suspension suite, including a 160 mm 36 fork and a DPX2 rear shock that provides 142 mm of bottomless-feeling travel. Shifting is handled by the premium SRAM X01 Eagle 1x12 drivetrain, while the stopping power has been upgraded to the critically acclaimed Hayes Dominion A4 brakes, known for their incredible light lever feel and massive power. The bike rolls on high-end Reynolds carbon wheels laced to Industry Nine Hydra hubs, providing nearly instantaneous 0.52-degree engagement.

Finished with a carbon Phoenix Team cockpit and grippy Maxxis Assegai tires, this 30.8 lb machine is built for the rider who demands a single bike that can climb efficiently and descend with enduro-level confidence. In excellent condition and fully inspected, this Switchblade V2 is a pro-tier weapon ready for any trail adventure.
