Pivot Sign 24 Hour World Champion	February 2010

Jason English, 24 Hour World Champion, Is on Pivot in 2010

The reigning World 24 Hour champion is riding Pivot Cycles for the 2010 season. Jason English, from Port Macquarie, Australia will defend his title aboard the USA's most innovative full suspension mountain bikes. "Jason is a perfect match for Pivot," said Adam Vincent, Pivot's marketing manager. "He demands a bike that is lightweight, stiff and precise and pedals with efficiency. The Mach 4's innovative frame design with dw-link technology delivers." English will be riding the 2010 Pivot Mach 4 with Fox Suspension, DT Wheels, Magura Brakes, and Kenda Tires. His bike weighs in less than 22 lbs and gives him an advantage in efficiency and handling over some of the world's toughest race courses. English rode the Mach 4 to victory at his first race of the year, the JetBlack 24Hours in Sydney Feb 13.

And a word from Chris Cocalis:

We at Pivot Cycles believe in putting the best components on the best bikes. We use the most cutting edge Fox suspension and DT wheels and not cheaper house brand stuff. This is most noticed in the suspension component, cranks, and the wheels. We get better traction on the climbs, have a stiffer frame, with pivot longevity and tolerances that are in a different league. Most magazine editors in the US rides a Pivot as their personal bike. Many of them have purchased bikes from us after a test. These guys can ride anything they want, yet it is the Pivot that they prefer as their favorite bike when they are testing components or just want to go ride when not testing something for the magazine. Even the head suspension test engineer at Fox has a Mach 5 that he rides as his personal trail bike. He feels that it is the best example for highlighting Fox technology because the suspension design is so dialed to work perfectly with the Fox suspension. Pivot is an engineering based company with the total goal of building the most efficient high performance full suspension bicycles that also take into account shifting performance, cable routing, ease of assembly, serviceability, and longevity.
