Pivot Shuttle SL World Cup XTR Review

Even steep ramps are surprisingly easy to climb with the Fazua motor. With its boost function, which provides 450 watts of support for a short period of time, the Fazua Ride 60 reduces the gap between light and classic full-power motors. At the moment, hardly any other light motor offers such a good combination of natural support, dynamic power delivery and capability. Fans of XXL tours are greatly restricted by the Shuttle SL World Cup with only an average range. The battery is securely attached to the down tube and cannot be removed for charging or storage.

A good chassis sits in rugged terrain and generates plenty of traction. That's exactly what the good Fox chassis in the Shuttle SL World Cup hits. With its four pistons the Shimano braking system decelerates fantasticly. This allows you to maintain control over your own pace even in the steepest descents. A nice touch: The gear and components are on a very good level. The handling of the bike is pleasantly balanced due to the moderate geometry. This allows you to intuitively control the bike over the trails. The low bottom bracket height is a party pooper for the handling on the trail. On other bikes, you are more centrally located behind the handlebar. Due to the short chainstays , when climbing steep sections, it requires active weight shifting to prevent the front wheel from lifting. Overall, the geometry does not seem to be up to date anymore. The competition is significantly more modern in this regard.
