The Pivot Firebird 29 Team XTR is an elite world class endurance trail bike that is fast, fun, and stable in any situation. Pivot says that the Firebird “rewrites the 29er playbook” with its ability to fly up climbs and just as easily bounce down a technical descent. While there are plenty of 29-inch endurance bikes that can take on technical terrain and bomb downhills, there are few as lightweight and capable of climbing or sprinting like the Firebird. This version is equipped with a Shimano XTR 12-speed groupset for some of the best mountain specific shifting on the market. Used by a ton of Pivot’s professional racers, the Firebird 29 Frame can help you create a mountain bike worthy of world class acclaim.

The frame of the Pivot Firebird 29 is made with a lightweight carbon fiber, making it lighter than the majority of bikes in its class. Their engineering process utilizes hollow-core carbon and a high compression molding process. This leads to an incredibly light frame that compensates for the extra grams caused by 29-inch wheels. The engineering process also leads to a frame that is strong enough to withstand the most aggressive World Cup downhill punishment. Weighing in at just seven pounds, this frame strikes a seemingly impossible combination of low weight and durability.

When it comes to stability at high speeds, the Pivot Firebird 29 is hard to compete with. It features the longest reach in its class along with incredibly short chainstays. This allows for a much lower center of gravity and low riding position. A 65-degree slack angle also helps the rider stay low and in position for unmatched stability. With 162mm of travel at the rear and 170mm at the front with an offset suspension fork, the Pivot Firebird can take on any challenge while leaving the rider feeling completely in control. This endurance bike can get the job done regardless of what the trail throws its way.
