High Performance Full Suspension Bike for Trail and Enduro Riding

Pivot Trail 429 Pro X0 Transmission Enduro - Silver Metallic

The Pivot Trail 429 Pro X0 Transmission Enduro - Silver Metallic is a premium carbon full-suspension mountain bike built for riders who want an efficient trail bike with greater capability when the terrain becomes steep, rough, and technical.

At its core is Pivot's Hollow Core carbon frame and DW-Link suspension platform, providing 120 mm of rear-wheel travel. The Enduro configuration pairs this with a 140 mm FOX Factory 36 GRIP2 fork, giving the bike a more aggressive front end than the standard Trail 429.

The build is completed with SRAM's X0 Eagle Transmission 12-speed electronic drivetrain, SRAM G2 RSC four-piston brakes, DT Swiss XM1700 wheels, Maxxis Dissector 29 × 2.4 WT tires, and a FOX Transfer Factory dropper seatpost. The Silver Metallic finish gives the bike a clean, understated appearance while retaining the high-performance specification of the Enduro build.

DW-Link Rear Suspension

Pivot's DW-Link suspension system is designed to provide efficient pedaling while keeping the rear wheel active over rough terrain.

The Trail 429 provides 120 mm of rear travel. The suspension is intended to remain supportive during climbing while offering controlled movement when descending technical trails.

The Enduro model's longer 140 mm fork complements the rear suspension by providing additional front-end travel and support for aggressive riding.

Rear Shock

The bike uses a FOX Factory Float X with Kashima coating and a trunnion mount.

• Shock: FOX Float X Factory

• Travel: 120 mm rear wheel travel

• Shock size: 165 × 45 mm

• Mount: Trunnion

• Finish: Kashima

FOX Factory 36 GRIP2 Fork

The Enduro configuration is distinguished by its FOX Factory 36 fork.

With a 140 mm travel chassis and GRIP2 damper, the fork provides more suspension capacity and front-end support than the 130 mm FOX 34 found on the standard Trail 429 Pro X0 Transmission. The Kashima-coated Factory chassis is designed for smooth operation and extensive adjustment.

Fork Specifications

SRAM X0 Eagle Transmission

The Trail 429 Pro X0 Transmission Enduro features SRAM X0 Eagle Transmission, giving the bike wireless electronic 12-speed shifting.

The X0 Transmission rear derailleur works with the UDH frame interface and is controlled through the SRAM Eagle Pod Controller. The drivetrain uses a wide-range 10-52T cassette, providing a low gear for steep climbs while retaining useful high gears for faster sections.

The X0 Eagle DUB crankset uses a 32T chainring, creating a practical setup for a modern 29-inch trail bike.

Drivetrain Specifications

Crank length is size-specific: 170 mm on XS/S and 175 mm on M/L/XL.

Wireless AXS Shifting

The SRAM Eagle Pod Controller provides electronic control of the X0 Transmission derailleur.

Because the system is wireless, there is no traditional rear-derailleur shift cable running through the frame. The result is a clean cockpit and precise electronic shifting suited to demanding trail use.

SRAM G2 RSC Four-Piston Brakes

The bike uses SRAM G2 RSC four-piston hydraulic brakes.

The G2 RSC system combines four-piston calipers with tool-free reach adjustment and contact-point adjustment. The Enduro configuration uses 180 mm SRAM CenterLine CenterLock rotors front and rear, giving the bike substantial braking capability for steep descents.

Brake Specifications

• Brake: SRAM G2 RSC

• Caliper: Four-piston

• Type: Hydraulic disc

• Front rotor: SRAM CenterLine 180 mm

• Rear rotor: SRAM CenterLine 180 mm

• Rotor interface: CenterLock

• Adjustment: Tool-free reach and contact-point adjustment

DT Swiss XM1700 Wheels

The Enduro build uses a DT Swiss XM1700 29-inch wheelset with a 30 mm rim width.

DT Swiss 350 hubs use the company's 36-tooth Star Ratchet freehub system. The wheelset is built around Boost front spacing and SuperBoost rear spacing.

Wheel Specifications

Maxxis Dissector Tires

The Trail 429 Pro X0 Transmission Enduro is equipped with Maxxis Dissector 29 × 2.4 WT tires.

The specified tires use 3C MaxxTerra compound, EXO casing, and TR tubeless-ready construction. This combination is designed to balance cornering traction and rolling efficiency with additional casing protection for demanding trail conditions.

Tire Specifications

• Model: Maxxis Dissector WT

• Size: 29 × 2.4 inches

• Compound: 3C MaxxTerra

• Casing: EXO

• Construction: TR tubeless-ready

FOX Transfer Factory Dropper Seatpost

The bike uses a FOX Transfer Factory dropper post with Kashima coating.

The dropper length is matched to frame size:

The size-specific arrangement allows riders to select a suitable saddle height while maximizing available dropper travel.

Phoenix Carbon Cockpit

A Phoenix Team Low Rise Carbon handlebar provides a 780 mm-wide cockpit.

The Phoenix Team Enduro/Trail stem is supplied in different lengths depending on frame size:

The cockpit is completed with Phoenix Factory Lock-On grips and a Phoenix WTB Volt Pro saddle in medium width.

Adjustable Geometry

The Trail 429 frame features a two-position flip chip in the upper linkage.

This allows riders to alter the bike's geometry according to terrain and handling preference. The Enduro configuration's 140 mm fork gives the bike a more aggressive setup than the standard 130 mm Trail 429.

The platform also supports alternative wheel configurations, including compatible 27.5+ and mixed-wheel setups, although the supplied Enduro build is configured around 29-inch wheels.

Internal Cable Routing

Pivot's Cable Port System routes cables and hoses internally through the frame.

This keeps the exterior of the bike clean and helps protect the routing from mud and trail debris. The system is particularly useful with the electronic SRAM Transmission drivetrain, while brake and dropper routing remains integrated into the frame.

Pivot Tool Dock

The frame includes provisions for Pivot's Tool Dock system, giving riders a convenient mounting location for essential trail tools.

This is useful for riders who prefer to keep repair equipment attached directly to the bike rather than carrying all of it in a pack.
