Pivot Shuttle AMP’d Electric Mountain Bikes

Pivot Shuttle AMP'd electric mountain bike stylish riding on aggressive trail terrain

Pivot Shuttle AMP’d

Big power, sharp handling and a properly aggressive ride feel for riders who want an eMTB that feels as lively as it is fast.

The Pivot Shuttle AMP’d is a full-power electric mountain bike built for riders who want a planted, aggressive chassis backed up by genuinely huge motor output. With 150mm of rear travel, a 160mm fork and mixed-wheel setup, it sits firmly in the modern all-mountain to enduro end of the eMTB category.

What makes it such a talking point is the new Avinox M2S drive unit. Pivot pairs that headline power with its dw-link suspension design, gravity-ready build kits and adjustable high or low geometry, giving the Shuttle AMP’d range a clear identity as a powerful, aggressive eMTB that still feels lively, precise and engaging on the trail.


Huge power, properly trail-ready manners

The Shuttle AMP’d is one of those bikes that sounds wild on paper, but the interesting part is how Pivot has built the whole package around that extra output. Instead of feeling like a motor attached to a frame, it is designed as a complete high-performance eMTB system.

  • Avinox M2S drive unit: up to 150Nm of torque and up to 1300 watts of peak power for serious acceleration and climbing support.
  • 150mm rear / 160mm front travel: enough suspension to stay calm when the trail gets rough, without losing the sharp, lively feel Pivot is aiming for.
  • dw-link suspension: tuned to keep traction high and pedalling efficient while still feeling supportive when you want to pump, pop and push through turns.
  • 800Wh battery: big-capacity range across the full Shuttle AMP’d range, with faster 508W charging on Pro and Team builds.

This is the headline feature. The Shuttle AMP’d uses the new Avinox M2S system, bringing huge peak power and torque to a bike that is still built to feel precise and controlled on technical terrain.

800Wh battery across the range

An 800Wh battery comes as standard throughout the Shuttle AMP’d lineup. Pro and Team models also get the faster 508W charger, while the Ride GX uses a regular 168W charger.


Key features across the Shuttle AMP’d range

Every Pivot Shuttle AMP’d shares the same core frame, motor and battery platform, so the ride character stays consistent across the range. The main differences come in suspension, wheels, drivetrain level and finishing kit as you move from Ride to Pro to Team.

Avinox M2S motor

Up to 150Nm of torque and up to 1300 watts of peak power makes this one of the most powerful eMTB drive systems currently available. For riders who value punchy acceleration and easy access to steep, technical climbs, that is a very big selling point.

dw-link suspension layout

Pivot’s dw-link suspension is designed to balance traction, support and pedalling efficiency. On a full-power bike like this, that matters just as much as the motor itself because it helps keep the bike calm and composed when the speed ramps up.

Mixed-wheel platform

The mullet wheel setup blends front-end confidence with a more agile rear end. It suits the Shuttle AMP’d well, helping it feel planted in rougher sections without becoming too long or too cumbersome when the trail gets tighter.

Adjustable high and low geometry

The Shuttle AMP’d gives you high and low geometry settings. That gives riders a bit of useful tuning room, whether you want a slightly higher ride feel or a slacker, more glued-down setup for steeper and faster terrain.

SRAM Transmission + SmoothShift integration

All builds feature Avinox SmoothShift working with SRAM Eagle Transmission, helping shifts stay consistent and intuitive under load. On a very powerful e-bike, that kind of refinement is a real benefit.


Why choose the Pivot Shuttle AMP’d?

The Shuttle AMP’d makes the most sense for riders who want maximum support on the climbs, but do not want to give up the lively feel of a modern performance bike on the descents. It is a full-power eMTB, but the geometry, suspension intent and mixed-wheel layout all point toward a bike that still wants to be pushed hard and ridden actively.

If you ride steep natural trails, rough trail-centre descents or longer uplift-style days under your own power, it is easy to see the appeal here. For more background on how bikes like this fit into the category, take a look at our eMTB guide.

Power, battery and geometry

The big headline numbers are easy to spot: up to 150Nm of torque, up to 1300 watts peak power and an 800Wh battery. That is a combination aimed squarely at riders who want to ride faster, climb harder and do bigger days without feeling undergunned by the motor or short on range.

The Shuttle AMP’d is also available with high or low geometry settings, and the size range runs from XS to XL. Across the size split, the layout stays nicely modern and roomy, with a mixed-wheel platform and confident front-centre that should suit riders looking for a more aggressive eMTB fit.

What changes as you move up the range

Every Pivot Shuttle AMP’d uses the same core platform: Avinox M2S power, an 800Wh battery, mixed-wheel setup and 150mm rear travel paired with a 160mm fork. As you move up the range, the biggest differences come through suspension level, wheelset, finishing kit, charger speed and drivetrain spec.

ModelWhat to expect
Ride GX Eagle TransmissionThe most accessible way into the Shuttle AMP’d range. You still get the same Avinox M2S motor, 800Wh battery and aggressive mixed-wheel chassis, paired with Fox Performance suspension, SRAM GX Eagle Transmission and DT Swiss E532 wheels. A strong option if you want the full Shuttle AMP’d ride feel at the lowest price point in the range.
Pro XO Eagle TransmissionA more premium build with RockShox Zeb Ultimate and Super Deluxe Ultimate suspension, SRAM XO Eagle Transmission, DT Swiss HX1501 wheels and the faster 508W charger. This looks like the sweet spot for riders who want a more aggressive high-spec setup without stretching all the way to the top build.
Team XX Eagle TransmissionThe flagship Shuttle AMP’d build, using Fox Factory suspension, SRAM XX Eagle Transmission, carbon cranks, DT Swiss HXC1501 carbon wheels and a RockShox Reverb seatpost. This is the lightest, most premium build in the lineup and the one aimed most clearly at riders who want the full halo-bike treatment.

Does the Shuttle AMP’d have adjustable geometry?
