Best Pedaling Enduro Bike Ever Made!?

- First time riding the new generation Pivot Firebird 29er Gen 2.
Insane how well this bike pedals and feels for a 165-170mm enduro 29er.
First ride impressions and feels are always a bit rough and bias, but coming off so many different bikes over this past 2-4 years has left me feeling pretty dang strong & confident on this bike!
From flowy single track that’s “boring” this bike still feels alive and rip ready! To the harder chunky terrain with twisty tight & steeper bits, it definitely shows it’s character and feels like a precision oriented scalpel of an enduro race bike! So much stiffness and agility mixed into a comfortable pillowy suspension platform really adds/gives the bike tons of confidence on all types of trails.
I’ve got many more miles on my current bike with a coil, but work life balance has me behind in all my videos and edits recently.. sorry for the delay of course! Will have much more to come should I get some more RUclips time.
Thanks for watching everyone, much love & happy shredding!

Skyline Park and the Buckeye trail is hands down my new favorite place to ride in California
Such a sweet trail system & so close to downtown Napa
That is “a lot of bike” Pivot is one of my favorite brands and the Switchblade is probably my favorite model. I’m hoping Pivot updates the Geo on some of the other models, I just don’t know if I would ever use all the travel on the Switchblade.
Haha, yea for “a lot of bike” it still pedals better than 95% of any other bikes out there even in a shorter travel category! These DW links do serious magic 🪄 I use all that 165-170 mm of travel all the time 😝
Thanks for the review. Is this version 3? Is the sizing normal? How heavy is it? Are you using the travel fully? Any issues landing to flat? Is it an enduro bike that’s still a good trail bike?
Probably the best pedaling Enduro bike I’ve ever ridden! Feels like a trail bike when climbing and like a mini DH rig on the downs. Does extremely well on flow trails and is one of the lightest enduro bikes one can buy!
Hey,
How tall are you and which framesize is the Firebird?
5’11 or 180cm and I’m stoked on the Large for the rear center length for climbing and descending & wouldn’t want it any shorter back there.. the extra length up front is really nice for stability and gnarly riding too
