Pivot Cycles Shadowcat Ride SLX/XT

SHADOWCAT? YES, SHADOWCAT.
Lithe, agile, sharp, fast and fun, the Shadowcat is a trail-carving expression of blazing speed and feline creative mayhem. Pivot's latest offering capitalizes on the acceleration and responsiveness of 27.5" wheels and acclaimed dw-link suspension to bring to life a bike that offers transformative capability for riders of every stripe.

LITHE
A new frame that weighs less than our impressively light Trail 429 frame. Heck, this frame weighs only 45 grams more than our featherlight Mach 4SL.
