Expirience with the Scott GENIUS 900 ULTIMATE

Ludwig Döhl The Genius has always been one of the most innovative bikes on the market. This claim defends Scott also with the latest Genius generation. 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 brings especially the attributes of lightweight construction and stiffness under one hat. The large bearings of the rear triangle also reduce the maintenance effort of the fully. The weight of a bike is a central factor for riding pleasure on any kind of terrain. With 12,8 kg, the GENIUS 900 ULTIMATE is one of the lightest Enduro on the market, which makes for great riding on singletrails. With a 63,9 degree head tube angle and a reach that tends to be long you can certainly speak of a modern geometry. For all of those who love a good incline, the moderate seating position of the on extremely technical trails should be considered pleasant. One thing shouldn't be underestimated: In the uphill, the Scott Fully with its overall sporty orientation makes it really hard for on moderate runs competitors to catch up. Scott gives 5 years warranty on the bike.
