Expirience with the Scott CONTESSA GENIUS 920

Ludwig Döhl In the Contessa version, Scott has adapted its Genius to the needs of women. In the first line, the suspension elements get a lighter "Tune" to work perfectly with low body weights. The Genius typical features remain nevertheless. The internal rear shock and the hidden cables not only characterize the design, but also have konstruktive advantages. The patented design protects the damper from dirt and unites the attributes of lightweight construction and stiffness. The large bearings of the rear triangle also reduce the maintenance effort of the fully. The flat 63,9 degree head tube angle of the Scott Fully gives the rider lots of confidence in challenging terrain. When sitting in the saddle, the posture is neither overly sporty, nor uber-comfortable. This should make the Scott CONTESSA GENIUS 920 suite the taste of most bikers. For 4999 Euro , competitors usually deliver geometries with less fun potential. We like: 5 years warranty on the frame!
