Pivot is releasing a limited edition of the Mach 5.5 Carbon to commemorate the company’s 10-year anniversary.

Pivot launched into existence at Interbike in 2007 with the Mach 4 and Mach 5. Since then, the Tempe, Arizona-based company has experienced significant growth.

“I can’t express how much it means to me to mark Pivot’s 10th anniversary. From the first year, with just two models and a lot of big plans, to now, with a full range of mountain bikes, an incredible roster of world class athletes, and customers around the world — it’s been a great ride, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything,” said Pivot founder Chris Cocalis.

This small batch of Mach 5.5 Carbon trail bikes features a limited edition paint scheme and hand-picked components.

The build kit includes a Race Face Next SL carbon crankset with custom graphics, matching Fox 36 fork and Fox Float Factory DPX2 rear shock, a special WTB Volt Team saddle with anniversary graphics, and an anniversary edition Reynolds carbon wheelset with custom, laser-etched Pivot anniversary logos on the matching Industry 9 hubs.

Pivot has created 300 of these special Mach 5.5 models. Pricing is set at $8,199. (UK and Australian pricing have yet to be announced.)
