SUSPENSIONS ON SCOTT BIKES

Congratulations on your purchase of a new Scott bicycle! We are confident that the bicycle will exceed your expectations for value, performance, and ride quality. Each frame set and component has been custom specified and designed to enhance your riding experience. Whether you are a beginning cyclist, or a seasoned pro, Scott bicycles will provide endless hours of two-wheeled fun.

We strongly encourage you to take the time to read this manual and familiarise yourself with your new bicycle. If you have purchased a bike for your children, please take the time to make sure they understand the information contained in this Owner’s Manual.

Important! If you purchased this bicycle for a minor, it is essential that a responsible adult/parent thoroughly reviews and reads the Owner’s Manual to the minor.

Please make sure to get your Scott bike completely assembled from your authorized Scott dealer.

This is very important for optimum performance and safety and guarantees you a long lasting joy while riding your bike.

It is important to understand the basics of riding a bicycle, but it is equally important to exercise common sense when cycling. Cycling is a dynamic sport and requires reacting to varying situations. Like any sports, cycling involves risk of injury and damage. By choosing to ride a bicycle, you assume the responsibility for that risk.

Important! Please use the bike of your choice only for the purpose it was made for. For instance a road racing bike can not be used to substitute a mountain bike in off road terrain or a Trekking bike can not be used for downhill racing or road racing.

If you have questions or problems regarding your new Scott bicycle, please contact your Authorised Dealer.

Ride Frequently!

CONGRATULATIONS! BICYCLE SAFETY

Saddle height

Comfortable riding not only depends on the position of the saddle, but also on its height. You can accurately adjust the height of the saddle to the length of your legs when you proceed as follows:

1. Straddle the saddle. Place the ball of your foot on the pedal nearest to the ground. Make sure the cranks are vertical.

2. If the heel of your foot points down about 30 degrees, the height of the saddle is correct.

CAUTION!

Make sure that the limit mark on your seat post is inside the seat tube. If it is not possible to reach the correct seat height, you have to choose a size above.

Make sure that this mark is inserted into the frame.

If you need to change the inclination of the saddle or the horizontal position, please make sure not to exceed the max. tightening torque.

Screws with M5 should be tightened with 6 Nm, M8 with 20 Nm.

Please make sure the saddle is connected perfect with the seat post before every ride.

Please note that Scott is not responsible for damages caused by neglecting the tightening torques on the seatclamp fixing screws.

If you have chosen a Scott bike equipped with a suspension fork, please refer to the enclosed instructions of the manufacturer.

For the adjustment of the rear suspension on a fully suspension bike, please refer to the instructions of the manufacturer of the suspension elements, and to the Scott instructions for full suspension bikes. Both booklets are enclosed with the bike. Only a well adjusted suspension brings security, comfort and fun.

SADDLE HEIGHT

1. Obey all traffic laws,

2. Make sure that the bike size is right for the rider, and that he can reach brake levers properly.

3. Make sure that the brakes and the bicycle work perfectly well (cf maintenance).

4. Always have a light at night and install reflectors properly.

5. Never ride two people on a bicycle designed for one (except specially designed and properly installed child carriers.).

6. Never hitch a ride on another vehicle.

7. Do not weave or race in traffic.

8. Watch out for parked cars (door can be opened at any time) and cars pulling into traffic.

9. Use proper signals when turning.

10. Mount loads securely. Never carry packages that interfere with brakes or vision.

11. Always wear a helmet.

The front and the rear derailleur have already been adjusted by your Scott dealer. Therefore, no readjustment will be necessary to begin with. However, it is advisable to check the adjustment of the gear change mechanism regularly.

For more information concerning the shifting system please read the manual of the shifting components producer attached to your bike.

CHANGING GEARS

Caution!

To avoid excessive wear and damage of the chain, sprockets and chain wheels, we advise against the following combinations (see illustrations):

– Largest chain wheel – largest sprocket

– Smallest chain wheel – smallest sprocket

CHAIN MAINTENANCE

Regularly check that your chain is clean and well-lubricated. Have your dealer check the chain for wear. Should you nevertheless want to check it yourself, you need to purchase the Rohloff Chain Caliber 2 from your Scott Dealer. This caliber will help you to work out whether your chain is too slack or not.

If your bike is equipped with disc brakes, please refer to the enclosed instructions of the manufacturer.

Please keep in mind that disc brakes need up to 30100 brakings to reach maximum brake power.

RReeaassoonnss ffoorr tthhee rreedduuccttiioonn ooff tthhee bbrraakkiinngg eeffffeecctts

When sudden braking in bad weather conditions, there are risks of skidding. Even if this situation can be avoided, sudden braking will always happen. In this case, we recommend to apply the rear brake a little more than the front one.

CAUTION!

Whatever the weather is like, you will never exclusively need the front brake; in order to prevent from sliding, you should always use both the front and the rear brakes together

By wet weather, the braking distance in approximate 60 % longer than by dry weather.

DISC BRAKES

Tires should always be inflated within the manufacture’s recommendations.

They are rated from 40 to 80 lbs. (check your tires).

Higher pressure for smoother roads or heavy riders.

Lower pressure for more shock absorption on rougher terrains.

Please find following example:

TIRES AND RIMS

INFLATE TO MIN. 3.5 (50PSI) - MAX. 6.0 BAR (85PSI)

If the brake system has brake pads, you have to be aware of the fact that the rim will be worn through the action of braking.

When riding in wet and muddy terrain for example, the rim is quickly worm out.

Small cracks in the brake surface of the rim or a deformation of the brake surface on the rim when increasing the tire pressure point out the end of the lifetime of the rim and the rim should be replaced immediately at an authorized dealer.

Scott bikes that are fully equipped (lights, mudguard, carrier) have a wear-out-indicator.

Please follow the instructions of the rim manufacturer shown in a manual or on the rim itself.

RIM AND WEAR OF THE RIM

Important:

Riding with an improperly adjusted wheel quick release can allow the wheel to wobble or disengage from the bicycle, causing serious injury or death to the rider.

Therefore, it is essential that you:

1. ask your dealer to help you make sure you know how to install and remove your wheels safely.

2. understand and apply the correct technique for clamping your wheel in place with a quick release

3. each time, before you ride the bike, check that the wheel is securely clamped.

The wheel quick release uses a cam action to clamp the bike’s wheel in place. Because of its adjustable nature it is critical that you understand how it works, how to use it properly and how much force you need to apply to secure the wheel.

Important:

The full force of the cam action is needed to clamp the wheel securely. Holding the nut with one hand and turning the lever like a wing nut with the other hand until everything is as tight as you can get it will not clamp the wheel safely in the dropouts.

WHEEL QUICK RELEASE

WARNING!

Do not remove or disable the secondary retention device. As its name implies, it serves as a back-up for a critical adjustment. If the quick release is not adjusted correctly, the secondary retention device can reduce the risk of the wheel disengaging from the fork. Removing or disabling the secondary retention device may also void the warranty.

Secondary retention devices are not a substitute for correct quick release adjustment. Failure to properly adjust the quick release mechanism can cause the wheel to wobble or disengage, which could cause you to loose control and fall, resulting in serious injury or death.

Removing a Quick Release Front Wheel

(1) If your bike has rim brakes, disengage the brake’s quick-release mechanism to open the clearance between the tire and the brake pads.

(2) Move the wheel’s quick-release lever from the locked or CLOSED position to the OPEN position.

(3) If your front fork does not have a secondary retention device go to step (5).

(4) If your front fork has a clip-on type secondary retention device, disengage it and go to step (5). If your front fork has an integral secondary retention device, loosen the tension adjusting nut enough to allow removing the wheel; then go to the next step.

(5) Raise the front wheel a few inches off the ground and tap the top of the wheel with the palm of your hand to knock the wheel out of the front fork.

The wheel hub is clamped in place by the force of the quick release cam pushing against one dropout and pulling the tension adjusting nut, by way of the skewer, against the other dropout. The amount of clamping force is controlled by the tension adjusting nut. Turning the tension adjusting nut clockwise while keeping the cam lever from rotating increases clamping force; turning it counterclockwise while keeping the cam lever from rotating reduces clamping force. Less than half a turn of the tension adjusting nut can make the difference between safe clamping force and unsafe clamping force.

Front Wheel Secondary Retention Devices

Most bicycles have front forks which utilize a secondary wheel retention device to keep the wheel from disengaging if the quick release is incorrectly adjusted. Secondary retention devices are not a substitute for correct quick release adjustment.Secondary retention devices fall into two basic categories:

(1) The clip-on type is a part which the manufacturer adds to the front wheel hub or front fork. (2) The integral type is molded, cast or machined into the outer faces of the front fork dropouts. Ask your dealer to explain the particular secondary retention device on your bike.

ADJUSTING THE QUICK RELEASE MECHANISM

Installing a Quick Release Front Wheel

CAUTION!

If your bike is equipped with disk brakes, be careful not to damage the disk, caliper or brake pads when re-inserting the disk into the caliper. Never activate a disk brake’s control lever unless the disk is correctly inserted in the caliper.

(1) Move the quick-release lever so that it curves away from the wheel. This is the OPEN position. (2) With the steering fork facing forward, insert the wheel between the fork blades so that the axle seats firmly at the top of the slots which are at the tips of the fork blades — the fork dropouts. The quick-release lever should be on the left side of the bicycle. If your bike has a clip-on type secondary retention device, engage it. (3) Holding the quick-release lever in the OPEN position with your right hand, tighten the tension adjusting nut with your left hand until it is finger tight against the fork dropout. (4) While pushing the wheel firmly to the top of the slots in the fork dropouts, and at the same time centering the wheel rim in the fork, move the quick-release lever upwards and swing it into the CLOSED position. The lever should now be parallel to the fork blade and curved toward the wheel. To apply enough clamping force, you should have to wrap your fingers around the fork blade for leverage, and the lever should leave a clear imprint in the palm of your hand. (5) Close the brake’s quick release system carefully.

Bike tires are fitted with tubes.

Remove the wheel from the bike and deflate it. Unhook the tire from one side of the rim, using tire tools, not screwdrivers.

Remove the tube from the tire casing, repair or replace it. Install the new or repaired tire. Fill the tube lightly with air in order to let it take its shape. Put the valve stem through the hole, and fit the inside tire. Put the tire bead in the rim starting at the valve and finishing at the opposite end, working on both sides. Push the valve stem into the tire and pull it back down to seat. Make sure the tube is not pinched under the tire bead. Inflate with hand or foot-pump. Close the brake’s quick release system carefully.

SCOTT bikes are made using the most innovative production and quality methods. They are equipped with best components of well known parts suppliers.

Doing so SCOTT warrants its frames and swingarms for five years (subject to compliance with maintenance ranges, see below) and SCOTT forks (provided it is a fork of SCOTT) for two years for defects in material and/or workmanship in case of purchase of completely assembled bikes.

This warranty of 5 years for the frames shall only be granted in case once a year a maintenance service has been effected according to maintenance requirements as set forth in this manual by an authorised SCOTT dealer.

The authorised SCOTT dealer shall confirm the effected annual maintenance service by stamp and signature.

In case such an annual maintenance service has not been effected the warranty of 5 years for the frame shall be reduced to 3 years.

Costs for maintenance and service have to be born by the owner of the SCOTT bike.

On High Octane the warranty period is limited to 2 years.

The warranty period starts at the day of purchase. This warranty is limited to the first buyer, what means the first person who uses the bike and only with the use it was made for

. Furthermore, this warranty is limited to purchases via authorized SCOTT-dealers to the exclusion of purchases via internet auctions.

In case of a warranty claim the decision to repair or to replace the defective part is up to SCOTT. Non defective parts will only be replaced at the guarantee’s own expense.

Fair wear and tear is not covered by the warranty. A complete list of all parts of wear and tear can be found in the next chapter of this manual.

In addition, you will find at the end of this manual a protocol for the handing over of the bike which will remain in copy at the SCOTT dealer after acceptance and signature of the consumer.

It is obligatory to show this protocol of handing over together with the defective part in case of a warranty claim given that it provides evidence of purchase. Otherwise no warranty is granted.

In principle, this warranty is granted worldwide. Claims must be made through an authorized dealer, for information regarding the nearest dealer, write or call this company or the national SCOTT distributor.

Normal wear, accident, neglect, abuse, improper assembly, improper maintenance by other than an authorized dealer or use of parts or devices not consistent with the use originally intended for the bicycle as sold are not covered by this warranty.

Light Systems and reflectors

A well functioning light system is of a very high importance for your riding safety in public traffic. Before every ride check front and tail light and the condition of the reflectors. Light bulbs are subject of wear and tear and we recommend to take some replacements with you in case of failure.

HHaannddlleebbaarr ggrriippss

Due to their use handlebar grips are subject to wear and tear, and should be replaced immediately in case they do not fit anymore to the handlebar or get loosen.

HHaannddlleebbaarr,, sstteemm aanndd sseeaatt ppoosstt

Handlebar, stem and seat post are under high dynamic forces while riding. Please check these parts regularly for visible cracks or damages and replace them if necessary. In addition we recommend a periodical replacement (every two years) of these parts when riding often and hard.

CChhaaiinn

Due to its use the chain is subject to wear and tear. This depends on maintenance and conditions of use of the bike (amount of kilometers, rain, dirt, salt, etc.).

Cleaning and greasing will help to prolong its life but you will have to replace the chain when reaching the wear limit.

SSpprroocckkeettss,, cchhaaiinnrriinnggss aanndd ppuulllleeyyss

Due to its use sprockets, chainrings and pulleys are subject to wear and tear.

This depends on maintenance and conditions of use of the bike (amount of kilometers, rain, dirt, salt, etc.).

Cleaning and greasing will help to prolong its life but you will have to replace the chain when reaching the wear limit.

SShhiiffttiinngg--aanndd bbrraakkee ccaabblleess

All cables must be surveyed regularly and changed if necessary. This can happen especially when the bike is often standing outside in weather.

BBrraakkeeppaaddss

All brake pads, no matter if rim-brake, disc-brake or internal brake are subject to wear and tear due to their use.

This depends on maintenance and conditions of use of the bike (amount of kilometers, rain, dirt, salt, etc.). Check your brake pads regularly and replace them if necessary.

RRiimmss

When using a rim brake not only the brake pads are subject to wear and tear. Also the rim. Because of this please check regularly the rims e.g. when inflating the tires. In case of small cracks or deformation of the brake surface of the rim while inflating the tires replace the rim immediately. Rims with wear-out indicators enable the bike user to check easily the condition of the rim. Please have a look concerning this issue on the sticker on the rim.

TTiirreess

Due to their use tires are subject to wear and tear. This depends on the use of the bike and is influenced by the riding style. Aggressive braking will reduce the lifetime of the tire dramatically. In addition check the air pressure regularly and inflate the tire according to the pressure recommended by the producer of the tire which is imprinted on the sidewall of the tire.

The owner’s manual was handed over and I got a detailed oral information about its content. Gebrauchsanweisung mit Pflege- und Wartungshinweisen habe ich erhalten, ich wurde auch mündlich eingewiesen. Le manuel d’utilisation m’a été remis ainsi qu’une information orale sur son contenu.

I‘m aware that the duty for the implied warranty of the retailer is limited to faulty products. There is no warranty for damages of wear and tear which are caused by using the product, especially when they must be seen as normal wear and tear.

Mir ist bekannt, dass eine Gewährleistungspflicht des Verkäufers nur für Produktmängel besteht. Für Verschleissschäden, die sich aus der Nutzung des Produktes ergeben, besteht keine Gewährleistung, insbesondere wenn diese als "gebrauchsüblich" anzusehen sind (typische Verschleissschäden bei Fahrrädern siehe Benutzerhandbuch)

Je reconnais que la responsabilité du revendeur est limitée aux produits défectueux. Il n’y a pas de garantie pour les pieces d’usure, usure liée à une utilisation normale du produit.
