Key Technology
UNDENIABLE VERSATILITY
The Pivot Vault will allow you to push harder and further than you have before, so top tube bag bosses were added to aid in your push. Well concealed fender mounts are hidden until needed – giving you the option to transform the Vault to fit your needs. The front derailleur mount is incredibly stiff for spot on 2x shifting, while it is also removable for 1x drivetrains, and its integrated cover virtually disappears with ultra-clean lines.
INFINITE DROP BARS
The Vault is consistently ready for any ride on any surface. Swapping tires to meet your needs has never been easier. Switch out for some 45c’s or a set of high volume 650b’s for an even more comfortable ride and better control. No matter how big, long, fast or rough your ride is, the Vault is ready to take on the perfect tire to match the needs of your drop bar quest.
TOSSING STONES
The long awaited Pivot Vault handles gravel, road, or cross with its massive tire clearance, close 420mm seatstays, and an super lightweight, race ready Hollow Core Carbon frame. Every ride is smooth and stable with tuned tube shapes and carbon layups. The incredible BB386EVO bottom bracket pushes power transfer to the next level, while offering more than enough tire clearance for your needs.
RIDER TUNED COMFORT
Take comfort into your own hands with Pivot’s Patent pending ISO FLEX technology. The brand new seatpost system separates the seatpost from the frame, boosting rider comfort while maintaining that frame stiffness that racers require. Insert sizes take just minutes to swap. Choose 27.2mm for maximum seatpost deflection and comfort or go with 30.9mm for dropper post applications. The Vault’s ISO FLEX seat tube design brings comfort to unforgiving dropper seatposts.

What bottom bracket is used, and which cranks are compatible?

Any Shimano or SRAM 24mm spindle cranks are fully compatible with the correct 30mm BB conversion. The system is also compatible with Campy and of course 386EVO specific cranks from Rotor and FSA. BB30 specific cranks are not compatible with the 386EVO system.
