New Pivot Shuttle AMP'd 2026

Pivot Cycles expands the Shuttle range for 2026 with the Shuttle AMP'd. The new e-mountain bike is clearly aimed at rough trails and fast descents: 150 mm of travel at the rear, 160 mm at the front, plus it comes standard with mixed wheels — 29-inch front and 27.5-inch rear.
It is based on a new carbon chassis with a DW-Link rear suspension, designed to efficiently turn drivetrain power into forward motion while also providing traction and high climbing efficiency. For the builds, Pivot consistently uses robust enduro components — depending on the build, with Fox or RockShox.

Pivot consistently uses mixed wheel sizing on the Shuttle AMP'd to combine agile handling with more clearance at the rear wheel — also with the smallest frame size in mind. If you prefer a more traditional setup: for all sizes except XS, a conversion to 29 inches front and rear is provided, implemented via a geometry flip chip.
Pivot relies on its own manufacturing, which makes it possible to vary and tune the frame's carbon layup depending on size ("size specific ride tuning"). In terms of weight, the Shuttle AMP'd comes in at approx. 21.3 kg for the team bike in size Large.

The TEAM variant is positioned as the top model. Pivot pairs a Fox suspension from the Factory line with carbon wheels from DT Swiss and relies on the Maven brake in the Ultimate configuration. Added to that is the fast charger, which the manufacturer says charges significantly faster than the standard. All in all, this is the variant for those who don’t choose the most expensive equipment for a single component, but because the overall package should make as few compromises as possible under heavy use.

In terms of detailed equipment, the TEAM model stands out for its mix of Fox Factory (38/Float X), carbon wheels and the top version of the Maven brake. The fast charger is a practical extra that fits when the bike is used often and for long periods.

On the PRO, Pivot opts for RockShox: a Zeb Ultimate works up front, a Super Deluxe Ultimate at the rear. Here too it keeps the Transmission drivetrain with Avinox integration and powerful Maven brakes — however in a lower-tier specification. This positions the PRO for riders who want the Avinox package and an enduro focus, but who favour a balanced price-to-performance ratio for the components rather than every premium option.

The PRO model combines the Avinox system with RockShox suspension and a robust DT Swiss hybrid wheelset. For charging it also sticks with the fast charger — a hint that Pivot sees this variant as intended for "viel fahren, viel laden" (ride a lot, charge a lot).

The RIDE represents the entry into the Shuttle AMP'd world. Pivot relies here on Fox Performance (38/Float X) and an aluminum wheelset, but sticks to the basic concept: 150/160 mm travel, mullet setup and Transmission gearing with Avinox integration. When it comes to charging there is a clear downward distinction, because the RIDE comes with a weaker charger. For those who don’t constantly depend on fast charging, however, that should be absolutely sufficient for everyday use.

In the RIDE package the platform remains identical, but the equipment becomes more pragmatic: Fox Performance instead of Factory, aluminum instead of carbon and a simpler charger. That makes the Shuttle AMP'd still pricey, but a little more accessible, without completely giving up the core idea of the powerful Avinox drive and full Transmission integration.
