The Pivot LES SL Dropbar GX Transmission Bike occupies territory that almost no other drop-bar bike attempts. Rather than adapting a road or gravel frame to handle rougher terrain, Pivot built the LES SL Dropbar on their LES SL cross-country race platform — one of the lightest and most capable XC frames in the sport — and paired it with drop bars, a 100mm suspension fork, and mountain bike axle spacing. The result is a bike that covers serious mixed terrain the way a conventional gravel bike can't: fully suspended at the front, running 29x2.25" tires, on the same chassis XC racers use at the highest level of the sport. At $6,399, the LES SL Dropbar is built for riders who want to go farther and faster across terrain that lies well beyond what a rigid gravel setup can handle.

The frame is hollow core carbon at 800 grams — a weight that competes with the lightest frames across any bicycle category. Pivot builds with a size-specific carbon layup, adjusting fiber orientation and schedule across the size range rather than scaling geometry while keeping the same material spec. Full internal routing runs through Pivot's cable port system, keeping lines managed without making service inaccessible. The UDH (Universal Derailleur Hanger) dropout is compatible with SRAM's T-Type direct-mount transmission standard and simplifies in-field hanger replacement. Low standover across the size range accommodates riders from 4'10" to 6'7" — a wider fit window than most XC platforms, reflecting the LES SL Dropbar's broader mission. The geometry was adapted from the standard LES SL with a longer wheelbase and more relaxed head angle, calibrated for the steering inputs and body position that come with drop bar riding over mixed terrain. Pivot's Precision Sealed Integrated headset completes the front end.

The Fox Performance Stepcast 32 fork runs 100mm of travel with GRIP damping and 44mm offset. On a drop-bar bike, this amount of travel is rare — most gravel bikes run rigid, and the few that incorporate suspension cap well short of this. What 100mm of travel does on rough terrain is remove a significant category of obstacles from the bike's limitation list. Washboard gravel, embedded rock gardens, rooted singletrack descents — conditions that require particular focus and slow you down on a rigid fork become manageable and fast. The Stepcast chassis keeps fork weight down, and GRIP damping provides position-adjustable rebound. The tires are Maxxis Aspen ST in 29x2.25 — XC race rubber that rolls fast on hardpack while maintaining traction on loose surfaces. Boost front (15x110mm) and Superboost rear (12x148mm) axle spacing bring the whole wheel and tire setup to full mountain bike standard, opening up route options that a conventional gravel bike wouldn't consider.

The drivetrain pairs SRAM Force AXS E1 drop bar levers with the SRAM GX Eagle Transmission rear derailleur — taking the best available wireless drop bar interface and connecting it to mountain bike-grade drivetrain hardware. GX Eagle Transmission uses SRAM's T-Type direct-mount architecture, which eliminates the B-tension screw and traditional derailleur hanger alignment tolerances by locking the derailleur position relative to the cassette — a system that shifts consistently under load in conditions where a conventional derailleur would struggle. The 32t chainring drives a 10-52t cassette across 12 speeds, a range that covers sustained mountain climbing as comfortably as flat road pacing. It's a fully wireless system with no shift cables to route, stretch, or replace. DT Swiss X1900 wheels run 370 hubs on mountain bike axle standards front and rear. SRAM Level Silver 2-piston hydraulic disc brakes with SRAM Centerline 160mm rotors handle stopping with consistent, modulated feel.

The finishing kit uses Pivot's Phoenix sub-brand components throughout: Phoenix Gravel stem with 31.8mm clamp, Phoenix Sport Gravel alloy handlebar, and a Phoenix WTB Race Volt saddle in narrow width. The FSA SL-K seatpost carries a 20mm setback. Three colorways are available: Black Sunset, Silver Bullet, and Blue Ribbon. The LES SL Dropbar is a bike for a specific kind of rider — one who has pushed against the limits of what a conventional gravel setup can handle, who wants to link trail systems and gravel routes in the same day without switching bikes, or who simply wants a drop-bar machine that doesn't have to slow down when the terrain gets rough. There isn't another production drop-bar bike that brings this combination of frame weight, suspension travel, and drivetrain range together at this price. That's what the LES SL Dropbar is.

Great privacy room divider
Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel, Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel
I got this room divider for our game room that shares the garage/laundry room, to separate the spaces. I was happy that it was relatively easy to put together in less than an hour with nothing more than a screwdriver (provided) although I used a small handheld drill. The instructions were pretty straightforward and easy to understand as everything was labeled. I have 2 small grandkids at home running around while I put this together so my timeline to completion might be longer than others. It recommends 2 people to assemble, but I was able to complete alone in about 40 minutes total and as I said I used a small handheld drill, (although it does come with a small Philips screwdriver) which is the only tool you need for assembly. The first two panels took me about 20 minutes but the other 4 were simple repeats after the initial 2. After all 6 panels were assembled the plastic clips to piece them together were literally a "SNAP" to put on. The poles are made of metal and the panels are made of a very sturdy almost canvas like fabric. When held up to the light not a lot shined through so very good for privacy. You can snap them together in sections and have 2 separate panels of 3 or what ever configuration you want. They are easy to move and bend around furniture or other obstacles, also fold flat together if you need to put them aside for storage. This worked out just as we had planned, very easy to move around when needed and I am very happy with this product. I loved how simple it was to put together, easy instructions, and the durability and functionality of it.

Decent for the price. Instructions suck but most people should be able to figure it out. More below.
Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel, Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel
SUMMARY: 3 stars from me because it's firmly average. It's fine for the price. Assembly and materials are alright but I can see some caveats depending on your circumstances. Assembly instructions do a subpar job of pointing out some details. ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS: Maybe it's because I'm autistic and/or building model kits and assembling stuff is my jam, but I honestly thought people were exaggerating when they were complaining about the instructions and I'd be able to flex my ~superior assembly skills.~ I was wrong! These instructions genuinely suck, and whoever is responsible for making them should be ashamed. The instructions do a poor job of calling out some details regarding orientation of parts, and some of the images do not actually match the physical parts. For example, it does not really outline the assembly of the end panels clearly, and I can see someone accidentally using the wrong poles. I've drawn over a photo to show what you should do to try and make it clearer. Additionally, the manual shows a flathead screw for bolting the feet into position, but the actual screw is not a flathead. It also does not point out the counterbore, so if you aren't paying attention you may put the foot pads onto the wrong side of the foot. It's also missing the fact that you need to use another one of the plastic pieces when you finish assembling a panel. ACTUAL ASSEMBLY & MATERIALS: To their credit, all of my bags were clearly labeled. The assembly process wasn't difficult. It's mostly just tedious and requires a fair amount of space. I was able to assemble it by myself without any real difficulty. However, the way it's assembled means two things. One, the fabric parts aren't removable without disassembly. So if you want to use this in an environment where they would require cleaning, I would seriously recommend looking for another option. Or, you could buy this just to use the frame pieces and then somehow buy or make your own fabric pieces designed to be removable with velcro or something. Two, because of the materials I really don't have a lot of faith in this thing surviving disassembly and reassembly. Like a lot of sorta-cheap-but-convenient furniture, it uses those spring-button connections and plastic inserts with self-tapping screws. Those things are not really meant to be disassembled and rethreaded. It also relies a lot on the tension of the poles and the fabric to keep everything rigid and squared, which I think puts a lot of pressure on the aforementioned buttons, plastic inserts, and the hollow metal rods. So I feel like that will also cause issues with disassembly and reassembly. Basically once this thing is assembled, it's not really meant to be disassembled. The best you can do is spot-clean the fabric if you need to. Speaking of the fabric, I didn't see any labels on them or anything in the manual that says what they are, but they feel like some kind of polyester. They generate static electricity pretty easily, and pet hair and debris sticks easily. So that's another downside of them not being easily removable. For the most part it does seem pretty stable. The poles seem to be pretty uniform in length so they're all making contact with my floor. Obviously this isn't structural so it shouldn't be supporting anything, but the two main feet seem to be doing fine with keeping this thing upright. CLOSING THOUGHTS: Really, it's fine for what it is, but it could be better in a lot of little ways and the substandard quality of the instructions just seems unprofessional to me, which is why I'm being so harsh with my rating. Depending on your needs and environment you may want to consider a different option. Preferably one that is made to be disassembled with better materials, and/or one with fabric pieces made to be removed easily.

Not as it seems
Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel
these are awful... Each individual panel is fine, but when you put it together it can barely stand up, and the clips that hold it together keep popping off. Steer clear of this item.
