Résumé

The Pivot Switchblade is a versatile trail bike praised for its excellent suspension performance, combining supple small-bump compliance with supportive mid-stroke and progressive end-stroke control. It climbs efficiently with strong traction and descends confidently, offering agile handling that inspires riders to push harder. While highly capable across varied terrain, some note its high price and occasional component issues.

Pros
  • Excellent suspension performance with supple small-bump compliance and supportive mid-stroke

  • Strong climbing efficiency and traction on technical sections

  • Agile and intuitive handling that inspires confidence

  • Versatile design with compatibility for multiple wheel sizes and shock options

  • High-quality carbon frame construction and thoughtful details

Cons
  • High price point for fully equipped builds

  • Inconsistent brake performance, particularly with Shimano XTR/XT models

  • Super Boost Plus rear spacing limits component compatibility

  • Stock suspension tune may be too progressive for some riders

  • Internal cable routing can be noisy

Key Quotes
The Switchblade truly shines when you let it go, a characteristic that edges it closer to the current crop of long-travel 29ers.

Its ability to turn every section of trail into an ultra high definition pop, rip and power through playground is as good - if not better - than any other bike we've ridden.

The Switchblade lives up to its billing and is a sharp tool for cutting through the trails

Points forts
  • Pivot’s Hollow Core carbon frame is one of the lightest in the category

  • Suspension fork leaves little to be desired

Points faibles
  • Geometry feels a bit dated

  • Slightly hectic ride quality

Bike Review | Pivot Switchblade Team XTR 29

mai 2020

The element of “pop” can be tough to describe, but when it’s felt, the definition becomes crystal clear. The Pivot Switchblade is a pop machine, and it’s apparent from the very first pedal stroke. With DW-Link suspension, designed by the guru Dave Weagle himself, there’s no question as to where this indescribable amount of energy comes from, nor is there a question as to how to make the most of it. The Switchblade answers that itself by boosting off every jump and bump in sight. The same fundamentals that make this bike an instrument of antigravity also give it a uniquely agile feel for when it’s on the ground—even if those moments are rare. With short chain stays and a steeper seat-tube angle the Switchblade is a nimble climber that transfers pedal power to traction well, even while out of the saddle.
