Pivot has updated their go-fast full suspension bike, the Mach 4 Carbon, for 2018. New for next year is “a fully redesigned rear triangle with increased stiffness and more tire clearance as well as Boost 148 rear hub spacing,” according to Pivot.

The Mach 4 will also be available in both trail and XC Race configurations, which will “[enable] riders to get a bike that is dialed for exactly how they want to ride,” said Chris Cocalis, Pivot President/CEO.

The trail version of the bike will come with a 130mm Fox 34 fork, Maxxis Ardent 2.35″ tires, and 740mm riser bars with a short stem. The XC Race version will come with a Fox 32 Step Cast fork, Maxxis Ikon 2.2″ tires, and a Phoenix Team Flat Carbon bar.

Riders can choose between a trail-ready build with 130mm travel Fox 34, Maxxis Ardent 2.35 tires and 740mm wide riser bars with shorter stems or a competition-ready machine with Fox 32 Step Cast fork with 100mm of travel, fast rolling Maxxis IKON 2.2” tires and a Phoenix Team Flat Carbon handlebar.
