Luke StrobelOne nice thing about having your own test track is being able to shred brown pow anytime. Strobel gettin' low in the top left hander on a recently constructed line.

Luke StrobelLuke's been riding Shimano for a number of seasons, but the switch to Pivot necessitated a switch to SRAM's X0 group that has been fairly "seamless". The Phoenix also sports replaceable dropouts that allow for wheelbase adjustments in 10mm increments. This is a stock feature for the Phoenix.

Luke StrobelThe rear shock mounts low in the frame for a lower center of gravity and better cornering. This, combined with the DW-link's anti-squat characteristics makes for a low, stiff bike that corners on a dime without the penalties normally associated with a low BB. The DW linkage shown here is mounted on 17mm pivot pins with a double row of EnduroMax bearings for long life and a supple ride. Additionally, the short DW link and the 83mm wide bb shell contribute to minimize lateral flex.

Luke StrobelOn his home turf, Luke is rocking a set of stock 2.35 Kenda Nexcavater meats with the RSR sticky compound. A life-long Maxxis Minion DHF rider, Luke was pleasantly surprised by the Nexcavator's grip, even though he wasn't riding it tubeless.

Luke StrobelThe ODI Flight Control Direct Mount Boxxer Stem measures in at 50mm. This stem features moto style clamping--the top two bolts are designed to bottom out, so only the bottom two bolts need be tightened to a torque setting.

Luke StrobelODI flight control bars manage the steering and measure out at 750mm. These bars--with the addition of the ODI screw in wingtip controls--can be widened by up to 36mm. They feature 25mm of rise, and 5 degrees of upsweep x 9 degrees of backsweep. Hidden under the stem is a Cane Creek Angleset that allows for headangle adjustments of up to 1.5 degrees (allowing Luke to go as slack as 62.5 deg up front).

Luke StrobelTeam Kenda-Pivot's Luke Strobel's World Cup Pivot Phoenix. The Pivot features a 64 degree head angle with 207mm of rear travel managed by Dave Weagle's revered DW-Link. The bike as pictured is set up for practice, so it features the DT Swiss hub/Mavic 521 hoops seen here vs. race day Dee-Max Ultimates. This practice set-up weighs in at a respectable 37.1 lbs. Considering that almost every part is available to the public, this looks to be one helluva a sweet ride. Retail on a stock Phoenix frame with a Fox RC4 rear shock rings in at $3k USD. A complete bike (as specced on Pivot's site) will run you a bit north of $6300 USD.

Luke StrobelLuke Strobel's World Cup Pivot Phoenix being test ridden on Luke's training trails in Cascadia, WA. The Phoenix features a triple butted 6000 series aluminum front triangle mated to a one-piece cold forged rear swing arm. In essence, it's elegant like a samurai sword, but is as brutally stiff and efficient as a machete on the trails.
