Pivot Switchblade 29 Pro XT/XTR V3 Pink Talon - Large **LIMITED EDITION - LAST ONE**

Collector's Note: An incredibly rare opportunity. Only 300 of these premium machines were produced globally—this specific bike is Number 179.

All the Mountains, All the Time

The Switchblade is a definitive do-it-all mountain bike that shines equally in the bike park and on raw singletrack. Re-engineered to handle all the mountains, all the time, this new generation features a slacker head angle, a steeper seat angle, increased frame reach, and a lengthened wheelbase. Size-specific chainstays are tucked in for an ultra-responsive feel, growing incrementally longer on larger frames to ensure warp-speed stability while fully maintaining the signature snap, pop, and playful agility that is deeply ingrained in the Switchblade’s DNA.

From Epic Trail to Bike Park

Light enough to pedal all day on technical backcountry loops, yet stout enough to run a heavy-hitting Fox 38 chassis without worry. You can spin this high-performance rig up into the jagged high places with absolute efficiency, knowing it is burly, composed, planted, and smooth enough to smash every aggressive line all the way back down.

Weight Summary

• Bike Weight: The most accurate way to determine any premium dual-suspension bike’s weight is to have us weigh it for you in-store. Production bike weights vary naturally depending on exact frame sizing, paint pigment layers, and local tubeless valve/sealant fluid ratios.
