Phoenix
Configure & BuyWe know what it means to scavenge every last tenth of a second. To build a mental map of every corner, drop, rock, and root. It’s why we spent years designing, testing, iterating, and fixating on every detail of the new Phoenix — all to squeeze out that last gram of go. Because when you’re careening down the knife’s edge of madness, it’s reassuring to know you’re on a machine as focused as you are.
An Idea Conceived in Carbon
The Phoenix began its life as a carbon lugged prototype. A carbon frame test bed allowed us to develop faster, iterate more efficiently, and ultimately push our prototype as close as possible to the finished product. The result is a bike that is both radically new and elegantly refined.
A Story Written at the World Cup
The original Phoenix soared to success on the world’s stage year after year. How do you follow up that kind of downhill demon? By putting its replacement through the same gauntlet. Pivot Factory Racing piloted the Phoenix prototype on the World Cup circuit and pushed it to its breaking point — literally — at Crankworx Rotorua, gaining invaluable real-world insights that honed the production bike.
“Our team has dedicated countless hours and hundreds of runs around the globe, relentlessly pushing this bike to its limits to create the ultimate downhill race machine.”

Ready for the Rough Stuff
With a mid-high pivot, six-bar dw-link suspension design and 210mm of travel, the Phoenix rips over bumps big and small and boasts unmatched stability on descents. The striking dual-chain drive runs smooth and silent, boosts efficiency, and ensures virtually no pedal kickback.
Business, Meet Party
An MX wheel setup comes standard, putting a smooth-rolling 29-inch up front and a flickable 27.5-inch in the back. It’s a healthy serving of stability with a generous side of agility; calculation with improvisation; steak with cake.
Flip It Good
Dial in your setup with the Pivot Flip Chip and switch between ‘high’ for conquering rocky and technical courses or ‘low’ for maximum speed on the descent. Use the Suspension Flip Chip to control the coil-over shock progressivity to help you tackle the steepest and roughest terrain.
Comfort Within Reach
With a reach adjust headset and the 4 frame sizes offered, riders can fine tune their reach from 430mm–525mm in 5–10mm increments.
Dual-Idler, Dual-Chain
Smooth and friction free dual-chain design for less resistance, more clearance and better chain retention.
