Pivot Mach 5.7 Carbon ?

Not Just Carbon, Pivot Carbon!

       A new Era of Carbon bikes has arrived. We’ve taken everything we learned about carbon development from our road projects (BH) and applied them here. The result is nothing short of amazing.

         Hollow box high compression internal molding technology allows us to optimize the critical internal dimensions unlike other carbon bikes. Greater compaction and smoother internal walls with greater constancy allows us to deliver a lighter, stronger, highly optimized frame design. 5 lb. frame weight with an incredible stiffness to weight ratio

        142 X 12mm through axle design featuring a forged 7075-T6 derailleur hanger with integratedaxle nut.
160mm rear post mount.

Special 4 place under top tube cable guide with dropper seat post cable routing.

Special rubberized leather chainstay, inner seat stay, and down tube protectors for a quiet ride and higher impact resistance.

Direct Mount front derailleur design accommodates Shimano and SRAM systems. The direct mount design, easies set up, and provides a more rigid mount for the most efficient front shifting possible.

140mm or 150mm fork compatibility.
Tapered headtube

        92mm wide bb shell, compatible with Shimano, SRAM/TruVativ GXP, FSA, and Enduro bottom brackets. 92mm shell allows for wider pivots and better bearing support for increased frame strength and stiffness while maintaining better control over the chain-line.

Suspension:

•dw-link suspension design with position sensitive anti-squat

•5.7” (145mm) rear travel

•Flatter spring curve to take greater advantage of the Boost Valve and allows for a smoother transition into the middle of the travel.

RP23 Kashima shock with custom tuned Rebound and Propedal settings:  New Rebound settings offers twice the number of adjustment options for more precise tuning of the rebound speed. Propedal 1 setting offers minimal platform while both Propedal 2 and 3 settings offer extremely efficient pedaling performance with quick blow off and good small to medium bump absorption.  Fully open offers a new level of plushness with the addition of Kashima coating while still maintaining the incredible pedaling performance Pivot frames are known for. The new settings add increased versatility and tuning range that improve overall performa

 

Geometry and Handling:

 

       •The new Mach 5.7 Carbon Shares the same award winning geometry of the Mach 5.7 aluminum.  The 5.7 Carbon’s relaxed 67.1 degree head angle (with 150mm travel fork), and low bottom bracket height, make for great cornering and increased stability and increased rider confidence on the trail and on the race course.

      •The dw-link’s position sensitive anti-squat allows us to achieve the stable handling and increased cornering benefits of the lower bottom bracket with more travel than other bikes in the category.  All with better pedaling efficiency, and a plusher feel.
