Pivot Switchblade
ALL THE MOUNTAINS, ALL THE TIME
The Switchblade is a do-it-all mountain bike that shines in the bike park and on singletrack, this bike is built to handle all the mountains, all the time.
DO EVERYTHING, AND DO IT BETTER
The new Switchblade has a slacker head angle, steeper seat angle, increased reach and a longer wheelbase than its predecessor. Size-specific chainstays are tucked in and responsive but grow incrementally longer on larger frames. This translates to added stability at warp speeds while still maintaining the snap and pop that is ingrained in the Switchblade’s DNA.
FROM TRAIL TO PARK
The new Switchblade is light enough to pedal all day, but stout enough to run a Fox 38 without any worries. You can spin this rig up into the jagged high places, and it is burly enough, composed enough, planted enough and smooth enough to smash every line all the way back down, laughing the whole way.
