A bike with lower gearing will be easier to ride up steep hills, while a higher top end means it will pedal faster down hills.

Pivot Mach 429 Trail Review, Full-suspension 27.5+

Apr 2018 · Virginia

When choosing a new trail bike, bikepackers have their own requirements. We tried 8 different full-sus bikes; the Pivot Mach 429 Trail won Gin's long-term review.

Highs
  • Efficient DW-Link suspension design pedals like an XC bike and descends like an all-mountain bike

  • Super stiff frame, linkages, and wheels work well for carrying a load

  • Excellent geometry that feels upright and stable while climbing but low and confident when descending

  • Great suite of components

  • Ticks all the boxes as a good option for a full-suspension bikepacking bike

Lows
  • Expensive

  • It would be nice to see full internal cable routing at this price point

  • Press Fit bottom bracket will be an issue for some folks

  • Slight curve where the lower bottle mounts sit makes for a strangely angled mount

  • Maxxis Icon is a little too light for the rear. I recently replaced it with a Rekon and put a Minion DHF on the front.

Pivot Mach 429 Trail Long Term Review

Mar 2017 · Moritz Dittmar

Pivot bikes are finally becoming something less of a rarity in Europe, so those infrequent sightings in your i-spy book might start getting some company as the Arizona-based brand continue to expand and build a pretty solid fanbase. We’ve had the Pivot Mach 429 Trail on test for the past year to see whether this […]

Flow's First Bite: Pivot Mach 429 Trail

Nov 2016

But 2017 is a new season, and look what has turned up – a new one, even better than the old one! Well, not entirely new, it’s the same frame as before, but there are a couple of upgrades to the spec that we thought were lacking in the outgoing version. So now it’s time …

Highs
  • A light and efficient bike for comfortably cruising trails.

  • Supreme quality.

Lows
  • Light and thin wheels.

  • Pivot price tag.

Sep 2016 · Emily Schaldach

Pivot's Mach 429 Trail comes close to matching the gravity gracefulness of an enduro bike with the stellar climbing of an XC race bike.

One Ride Review: The quite capable Pivot Mach 429 Trail

Jul 2016 · Tyler Benedict

The first 29er I ever rode was the Pivot Mach 429. It was at a demo day in Charlotte, NC, well before Bikerumor was a twinkling in my eye, and it hooked me. Immediately after that test loop, I rode the 26″ version and felt slow and clumsy. Twenty niners were it from then on …

Pivot Mach 429 Trail X1 review

Nov 2015 · Guy Kesteven

Super smooth and confident trail cruiser with danger-erasing calmness, but a long, flexy back end reduces responsiveness. Buy if you prize speed, smoothness and grip over pinpoint accuracy

Highs
  • Fantastic dw-link suspension setup, big-wheeled glide, stiff front end

Lows
  • Long and bendy back end
