Santa Cruz Bullit vs. Pivot Shuttle LT | e-Mountain Bike Showdown

Спорт

With the Santa Cruz Bullit and Pivot Shuttle LT both sitting in the long-travel e-Mountain Bike category, we decided to compare these two electrified rides. Gearheads Cam, Chris, and Kendall tested these bikes on a handful of long rides in backcountry terrain, and both bikes impressed.
While they’re both long-travel bikes, the Bullit and the Shuttle LT both offer their own respective flavors. The Bullit features mixed wheel sizes for a touch of freeride flair, while the Shuttle LT uses slacked out geo and dual 29in wheels to deliver a composed ride feel that shines deep in the wilderness.

    The Santa Cruz bullit all day long without a doubt. I always have a hardcore enduro bike on the side.

    I have a SC bullet and a SC V10 downhill bike. The bullet feels almost identical to my V10 in the descent even though it has less travel. I’m thinking of selling the V10 because the bullet is perfect for almost everything! Great bike!

    Very nice bike this Pivot Shuttle LT. I've had one for almost one year now, it's my first Pivot and for me without a doubt the best bike I've ever ridden. What's more, it's very very safe, especially on descents where you can do a lot more without taking too many risks, not to mention the fact that the position on the bike is really comfortable. I've ridden it in the French Alps, and whether it's uphill or downhill, it's a real pleasure 👍 ... Yes, I almost forgot this: the DW-Link suspension is a must-have!

    If only these bikes came with the Bosch motor... anyways, the Pivot for me as a mullet and with the 180mm fork

    Check out the Ibis Oso. Bosch motor, Mullet in S and M, full 29er in L and XL.

    @dadventuretv2538 Yes, I know the Oso, it is just that very low bottom bracket height which leads to easily breaking of the plastic motor cover
