Pivot Cycles Shuttle AM 29 Team XX Eagle

The Shuttle AM 29 Team XX Eagle Transmission exhibits all-mountain capability, combined with incredible climbing performance. Light for an E-MTB, it offers the travel required to conquer different terrains, along with the agility needed to hug the trail at speed.

This versatile bike is powered by a limited edition Bosch drive unit that offers a special “Race” mode that will leave your riding buddies in the dust. This unit, along with its companion long-lasting battery, is cleanly integrated into Pivot Cycles’ slimmed down, Hollow Core Carbon frame, with its stable, long and low geometry, helping to keep the bike’s centre of gravity low.

Together, the drive unit and battery will power you on epic trails you have only imagined riding. Should you find that you would welcome more confidence, or greater nimbleness, to handle the country you’re planning to ride, you can alter the geometry slightly using the handy flip-chip to better suit your needs.

If you want to tailor your experience further, you can programme the Bosch motor to adopt one of four different modes, each offering a different level of support to match the ground you’re riding on, with the help of a convenient app.

Whichever mode you choose, since the Shuttle AM 29 is a Class 1 E-MTB, the motor will only kick in when you’re pedalling and will stop once you top 20mph, for example while you’re coasting downhill, giving your ride a natural feel.

The suspension also reinforces this analogue effect, as Pivot Cycles’ trademark dw-link™ keeps pedal bob to a minimum, even with the added weight of motor and battery, and helps to harness the full power of every pedal stroke. In the unlikely event that you lose charge, you’ll still be able to pedal home without difficulty.

More commonly, though, you’ll appreciate the high-quality Fox Factory suspension, with its ample 148mm of rear and 160mm of front travel, as you take on your favourite trails, attempt a new jump or weave deftly down a boulder-strewn slope in record time.  

Your confidence and all-mountain ability will further be boosted by strong, 29” carbon wheels with chunky Maxxis Minion tyres, reinforced by Super Boost Plus 157 rear hub spacing for added stiffness, alongside the presence of light yet snappy, reliable Shimano XTR M9120 brakes and a reassuringly long travel Fox Factory seatpost.

The bulk of the drivetrain components, meanwhile – the protected ‘Full Mount’ rear derailleur, close ratio cassette and smooth running, flattop chain, coordinated by the efficient AXS Pod Controller shifter – are SRAM XX Eagle Transmission. Durable and low maintenance, they offer fast, accurate shifting performance that will help you to maintain your speed on undulating terrain.

If you’re looking for a E-mountain bike that combines the lively steering and energy of the long-range specialist Shuttle SL 29 with the comfort and descending excellence of the Shuttle LT 29, you’ll find that the Shuttle AM 29 offers the qualities you require to inject maximum fun into your all-mountain rides.
