Expirience with the Scott Spark RC Team

Ludwig Döhl This bike made Nino Schurter world champion in 2021. They made history, because never before had a cross-country world championship been won with a fully with 120 mm suspension travel. The integrated damper and the Twin-Loc lever for locking the chassis make the Scott the most innovative bike on the market. With lean 11,7 kg, the Downcountry-Bike of Scott is among the lightest bikes in this category. You have no idea if you prefer high speed stability or playful handling? Then you can´t go wrong with the Scott Fully. It´s handling is pleasantly balanced. If you want to get ahead efficiently and quickly, you will welcome the sporty riding position. On the way to the summit, the Spark RC Team lets it rip. With its 510 bandwidth on the gears and the overall athletic alignment, the tours with lots of high meters competitors got some catching up to do. A nice warranty promises sustainability. With 5 years warranty Scott sets the bar high! Caution when selecting the size: the Carbon frame sizing runs big.
