Pivot Mach 429 Trail

Pivot's Mach 429 Trail is the antidote to 29er full-suspension bikes that feel big and cumbersome. Because it has a low standover, short chainstays (17.45 inches), and a stiff frame that makes handling precise, the Mach 429 Trail feels smaller under the rider than many 29er trail bikes. That makes it easier to maneuver and whip around switchbacks. The rear suspension has 116mm of travel, but it feels like there is more. As with many other bikes that use the DW-Link design, the suspension feels very crisp and efficient, with little unwanted motion.
