Pivot Bikes has recently revealed its latest creation, the Shuttle AM, an all-mountain electric mountain bike designed to cater to the most passionate mountain biking enthusiasts. Boasting a host of enhancements, lightweight construction, and top-notch Bosch motors, the Shuttle AM is ready to take on the toughest of trails.
Equipped with 29-inch wheels both in the front and back, the Shuttle AM offers 148 millimeters of rear wheel travel across all three available variants. Its full carbon fiber front and rear triangles ensure a sturdy yet lightweight ride, complemented by a 160-millimeter suspension fork in all builds.
The three variants of the new Pivot Shuttle AM offer riders various options, with the Team model being the lightest, weighing in at an impressive 47.4 pounds. What sets this e-bike apart is its trail-blazing performance, thanks to the integration of the DW suspension linkage, specifically designed to prevent rear suspension squatting during power delivery from the mid-mounted motor to the rear wheel. Moreover, the frame’s clever design accommodates the battery within the downtube, ensuring a low standover height and optimising the bike’s center of gravity.
Pivot has enlisted Bosch’s top-tier e-bike motors to power the Shuttle AM, with the high-end Team model featuring the groundbreaking Bosch Performance CX Race motor offering 400 percent pedal assistance and a magnesium motor housing. The other two models are equipped with the regular Performance Line CX motor, known for its robust 85 Newton-meters of torque.
Battery technology is not compromised either, with the Team and Pro models sporting a 750-watt-hour battery pack, and the base Ride model fitted with a 625-watt-hour powerpack. Riders seeking extended range have the option to add a Bosch PowerMore range extender, providing an additional 250-watt-hours of power.
Considering the cutting-edge technology and premium performance, it’s no surprise that the Shuttle AM comes with a significant price tag. The base Shuttle AM Ride is priced at $8,999 USD, while the Shuttle AM Pro carries a hefty $11,799 USD price tag. Those seeking top-tier performance can opt for the Shuttle AM Team, albeit at a premium cost of $13,999 USD.
Pivot Bikes has set a new standard in the world of all-mountain e-MTBs with the Shuttle AM, offering riders an exhilarating and powerful ride that’s bound to leave an indelible mark on the mountain biking community. The Shuttle AM is now available for purchase, delivering uncompromising performance and a thrilling mountain biking experience for enthusiasts seeking the very best.
