Pivot Shuttle AM Ride Eagle 70/90 Bike

The Pivot Shuttle AM Ride Eagle 70/90 Bike is the entry point into Pivot's all-mountain e-MTB platform, and it doesn't cut corners to get there. Pivot builds the Shuttle AM as its benchmark all-mountain e-bike, and the Ride build carries the same carbon front triangle and 150mm/160mm travel as the Pro and Team tiers above it, just paired with a more accessible RockShox suspension package and SRAM's mechanical Eagle drivetrain instead of AXS. For riders who want big-mountain capability on 29-inch wheels without stepping up to Pivot's flagship builds, this is where the Shuttle AM lineup starts.

Power comes from Bosch's Gen 5 Performance Line CX motor paired with an 800Wh battery, run through the Bosch eBike Flow app. The Gen 5 system is built for stronger low-end torque and quicker engagement than previous Bosch generations, and the app's eMTB+ mode adjusts assist in real time based on pedal input and trail conditions rather than a fixed support curve. Riders who want more range beyond the stock 800Wh can add Bosch's PowerMore 250 range extender, a bottle-shaped 250Wh unit that mounts to the frame without permanently altering the bike's setup.

The frame itself uses a carbon front triangle with an alloy rear triangle, delivering 150mm of rear travel matched to a RockShox Lyrik Select+ fork up front running 160mm at a 44mm offset. A RockShox Super Deluxe Select shock handles the rear end. Geometry leans toward stability at speed, with a 64.1 to 64.5-degree head tube angle across sizes and a steep 76.5 to 76.9-degree seat tube angle that keeps pedaling position efficient on the climbs despite the slack front end. A size-specific dropper post, running from 150mm on the small frame up to 200mm on large and extra-large, gives riders room to move on descents without swapping parts.

Drivetrain duties go to SRAM's Eagle 70/90 mechanical transmission, a 12-speed setup built around a 10-52 cassette and a 34-tooth chainring on an FSA crankset. Like SRAM's other Eagle Transmission derailleurs, it mounts directly to the frame without a derailleur hanger, which means fewer bent hangers and shifting that stays consistent even after a hard hit on rocky terrain. Braking comes from SRAM's DB8 Stealth 4-piston calipers on 200mm Centerline rotors front and rear, giving enough stopping power for sustained descents with a loaded e-bike's added weight.

Rolling stock is a set of DT Swiss E532 rims, 30mm wide, mounted with Maxxis Minion DHF up front and Minion DHR II out back, both in a 29x2.5/2.4 WT fit with EXO+ casing and MaxxTerra compound. It's a proven front-and-rear pairing for aggressive trail and enduro riding, biased toward cornering grip and puncture resistance over outright rolling speed. Phoenix-branded cockpit parts round out the build, with a low-rise aluminum bar, an enduro/trail stem, and lock-on grips. Between the motor's real-time assist tuning, the dropper-equipped geometry, and a drivetrain built to shrug off trail damage, the Shuttle AM Ride Eagle 70/90 is built for riders chasing long days in technical, big-mountain terrain who want that capability without paying for Pivot's top-tier build kits.
