The 2022 Pivot Mach 5.5 Carbon Team XX1 AXS with Fox Live Valve is a high-spec trail machine that blends cutting-edge tech with all-mountain versatility. At the heart of it is Pivot’s long-running DW-Link suspension, delivering 140mm of rear travel that’s responsive on climbs and composed on descents. But it’s the integration of Fox Live Valve that really sets this build apart—automatically adjusting compression settings in real time to match terrain, it gives the bike a near-telepathic feel over changing conditions. The carbon frame is stiff, light, and meticulously finished, and the Team build spares no expense: SRAM XX1 AXS wireless shifting, top-tier Fox Factory suspension, and Reynolds carbon wheels make for a responsive, razor-sharp ride. It’s a bike for riders who want aggressive descending capability with XC-like pedaling efficiency—especially those who geek out on tech and demand performance that keeps up with every input.
