Team build spec of the stunning Pivot Firebird enduro mountain bike. The PFR Team build is an extra special bike, dripping in top-end performance, race-ready components.

The Firebird is built with a focus on enduro racing, combining Pivot Cycles extremely light Hollow Core carbon frame with a wonderfully plush Fox Factory DW-Link suspension inspired by Pivots premiere downhill bike, the Phoenix. It offers 165mm of rear travel and an impressive 170mm of front travel.

The DH-inspired long DW-Link maximises the rearward wheel path with 165mm of travel to give impressive levels of handling on the descents yet still enables it to climb efficiently if uplifts arent an option. The progressive geometry of this bike, with its relaxed head angle, long reach and equally long wheelbase, promotes stability with sharp responsiveness and inspire confidence at high speeds. Since the build is tailored to match different sizes of rider, for example by adjusting the length of the chainstays, the same performance will be delivered no matter your height.

The Firebird is made to work with 29 wheels, but the flip chip will allow you to effortlessly adjust the frame geometry for different conditions or to accommodate 27.5 wheels or a mixed setup. The default is a low bottom bracket setting, which will optimise your control on fast, steep terrain and make room for wider tyres. Flipping the chip raises the bottom bracket to accommodate a mixed wheelset, while inserting the 17mm extended headset cup achieves a perfect fit for 27.5 wheels. The head angle is steepened too, and together these adjustments encourage better cornering at speed and more efficient climbing.

Benefiting from Super Boost Plus 157 spacing, originally pioneered by Pivot, enables the Firebird to use short chainstays, which are great for tight cornering, tyre clearance and a stiff rear swingarm. The boost standard furthermore moves the drivetrain out 6mm, promoting better tyre clearance and mud shedding capabilities.
