A new Phoenix rises in Electric Red.
Behold the Phoenix Special Edition Team XX DH. Our most decorated gravity race bike meets SRAM’s next evolution in downhill technology, built around the all-new wireless XX DH drivetrain and the latest-generation RockShox BoXXer and Vivid Air Shock.
This is a no-compromise celebration of speed, control, and precision at the highest level of the sport. Link in bio.
You know the Trailcat SL and LT for the sharp handling, efficient power and incomparable ride feel that encourages you to push deeper into the trail. The new Mocha Storm colorway adds a darker edge to that experience. It’s bold without being brash, distinctive without being distracting and it looks right at home on the trail.

Which bike are you going to pick up?
A recent Kokopelli Trail FKT attempt became one of the hardest days on the bike @kait.boyle has ever had.
Her story of the day - seeing what's possible amidst challenging conditions and shifting her mindset to embrace a Fastest Kait Time, a different kind of "FKT" - is live on the Journal at the link in our bios.

Attaching a battery and motor is the easy part. The hard part? Making it feel like a Pivot.
That’s why we tune our e-bikes to the same level of precision as our analog bikes, scrutinizing frame design, carbon layups, suspension kinematics, and battery mounting. We obsess over every detail, so that when you put your feet on the pedals, you’re rewarded with the same agility, responsiveness, and tenacity you expect from any Pivot.
World Cup Racing is back!
Our @pivotfactoryracing Team made the trip to South Korea to kick off the 2026 season and we couldn’t be more proud of their performances.
@dylan.maples , the newest member of the team delivered a stand out ride in the finals to land in 14th in the men’s race.
@rogervieira8 started the season right where he wanted to. In his first season as a fully fledged member of PFR, he ticked off his goal of making the final and put his Phoenix into 21st.
@jennnahastings qualified through to the final from Q1 in 9th and was ready to build on that in the final. Unfortunately she was swallowed up by the ever changing Korean course and laid it down midway into her finals run. P15
@bernard_kerr unfortunately suffered a mechanical in Q2 but after a busy off season was over the moon with how the team performed.
Our guys now sit 12th in the team standings heading to the next round in France in 3 weeks time. We can’t wait!
Huge thanks to Ed Bull Media for being our boots on the ground anchor. @edmasters
Dylan qualified in Q1 today, and is all queued up for finals tomorrow. Here’s a look at the rig he’ll be dropping in on in. What’s your favorite part?
The 2026 World Cup downhill season is officially underway. Pivot Factory Racing has checked off the first day of practice in South Korea and all the riders are already looking quick.
What are your thoughts on the track?
Now on YouTube: Between Two Bikes with Pivot Factory Racing. Get to know @bernard_kerr , @dylan.maples and @rogervieira8 before they drop into the track in South Korea this weekend. Head to Pivot’s YouTube channel to catch the full cut.
