Good question, and a fairly significant step up in both ambition and price point. Let me web search the current specs on both bikes - particularly the Pivot Shuttle AMPd motor and sizing for someone at 5'5" / 170 lbs - before I give you numbers.

[Based on search results for Pivot Shuttle AMPd 2025/2026 specs and Amflow Carbon Pro 2025 geometry]

Here's where things stand. I need to be straight with you: the Avinox M2S torque figures are contested in my data - I have conflicting claims ranging from 120 Nm to 150 Nm, and I can't confirm which is current and accurate. I'll flag that clearly below rather than pick a number I can't stand behind.

Motor

Bike	Motor	Torque
Amflow PL Carbon Pro 2025	DJI Avinox M1	120 Nm
Pivot Shuttle AMPd	DJI Avinox M2S	Unconfirmed - claimed 150 Nm but I can't verify that figure

Both are DJI Avinox platform, which means the same app ecosystem, same integration philosophy. The M2S is the newer, higher-output variant - but the exact peak torque is something I'd check against DJI's current spec sheet before buying on that basis.

The meaningful differences • Motor: M2S vs M1 - the AMPd has the newer, more powerful motor. If you want the cutting edge of the Avinox platform, that's the Pivot.

• Battery: Both 800Wh - no difference there. • Travel: Both 160/150mm - essentially the same category.

• Weight: Amflow PL Carbon Pro comes in around 19.7 kg (size L, per Pinkbike's verified figure). Our database shows the AMPd at 21.5 kg, though that's unverified - treat it as approximate.

• Price: Our database shows the AMPd at ~£7,504 vs the Amflow at £5,999. That's a £1,500 gap - worth knowing what you're paying the premium for.

Sizing - this matters at 5'5" At 5'5" (roughly 165 cm) you're likely looking at a Small on the Amflow Carbon Pro. The AMPd sizing I'd need to confirm - Pivot's size charts can vary by model. I'd strongly recommend checking Pivot's geometry table for the AMPd specifically and comparing reach/stack on the Small before committing. Don't assume S on one is S on the other.

Bottom line You're not trading up dramatically in capability - same travel, same battery, same platform family. The AMPd gets you the newer M2S motor and a different frame/brand. Whether that justifies ~£1,500 more depends on how much the motor upgrade matters to you and whether your dealer support for Pivot is solid. As @RustyIron's post noted in a related thread - dealer network and parts availability are worth factoring in alongside the spec sheet.
