All-Mountain Attitude, Race Bike Reflexes

The Trail 429 might well be the perfect category-defying trail bike. Progressive geometry and super-capable suspension give hard-charging riders the tools they need to thrive in jumpy and steep terrain. With 120mm of travel, this bike offers a plush and composed ride. The super refined dw-link suspension provides whip-crack pedal response and acceleration, thanks to the strongest, lightest carbon fibre chassis ever developed by Pivot. The XC capability of this bike is on par with dedicated flyweight race bikes, making it versatile across various terrains.

Evolution Of A Classic

This latest iteration of the Trail 429 is a result of constant improvements for peak performance. The geometry has been fine-tuned with a slackened head angle, increased reach, and a flip-chip for adjusting between rowdy or racy settings. These changes enhance stability at speed while maintaining excellent pedalling ergonomics. The proprietary Hollow Core carbon frame construction has reduced the chassis weight by over 300 grams, achieving XC-race frame weight with outstanding all-mountain strength and stiffness.

All-Star Suspension

The Trail 429 features reworked dw-link suspension with a metric, trunnion mount shock and a more progressive linkage for improved pedalling efficiency and enhanced capability in big hits. The design offers a bottomless feel and increased tunability. Combining rocketship pedalling performance with a plush ride, the Trail 429 feels like it has more travel than it actually does. This bike manages to be both razor-sharp and butter smooth, making it a top choice for avid riders.
