GEOMETRY/TECHNICAL DATA GENIUS 700

GENIUS CONCEPT
The new Genius is the result of 2 yea rs of research and development for one of the lightest
trail/marathon bike frame set available on the market, hitting the scale at be low 2300g (5 lbs)
including the frame, FOX Nude /CTD shock a nd the uniqu e TWINLOC remote control.
SCOT T’s focus was not only on light weight but also o n a durable and stiff fra me with an
innovative suspension technology in combination with an optimized kinematic s of the rear
swingarm.
The combination of an optimized kinematics with an extraordinary suspe nsion technology
closes the gap between superlight dua l suspension race bikes (e.g. SC OTT S park) and the
new generation of all-mountain bikes (e.g. S COTT Geniu s LT ).
Genius was d esigned for riders looking for a dual su spended trail and marathon bike offe ring
a maximum rear wheel travel of 15 0mm (700) / 130 mm (900 / 700 P lu s).
SCOT T does n ot see frame a nd rear shock as single comp onents which are assembled
together on a bike, but as a conce pt with all these components working together and
offering an outrageo us functio n by matching per fectly.
The Geniu s Concept is ba sed on a multi- pivot technology.
The dampin g perform ance was improved in comparison to the already famous “old” Genius,
and with reworking also the kinematics we were able to rea ch a better prog ression in the end
of the stroke/travel of the swingarm.
The SCOT T system , using the Nude shock, na med TC (Traction Control) will allow you
to reduce by remote control the rear wheel travel from 150 mm (700) / 130mm (900 /
700Plus) to 100mm ( 700) / 90mm (90 0 / 700 Plus) includin g a more progressive spring
rate but still offering a suppl e break away. In addition the SAG is reduced and the geometry
gets steeper.
Some models of Genius use also the FOX CTD sh ock which of fers instead of the Traction
Mode a Platform (Ride Mo de) in between Clim b Mode and D escent Mod e
No power will be lost and an optimum power transfe r is guarantee d as the swingarm, in
contrary to lo cked or automatic -locking systems, can follow the trail sur face and will offer
perfec t traction and higher spe ed while standing on the pedals.

TC SHOCK TECHNOLOGY/TWINLOC LEVERS
The hear t of the TC-System is the FOX Nude S hock made by FOX, offering th ree functions
which make this system possible.
The TWINLOC XL remote control lever is the evolution of the a lready outs tanding TR ACLOC
system of SCOTT.
While TRACLOC allowed only the ch ange on the S COTT TC rear shocks between the
SCOT T patented Lock-out, traction and full -mode on the fly from the handlebar, the
TWINLOC allows also the remote control of the front fork to shift betwe en lock-out and
open mode at the same time when you chang e the modes o n the SCOT T rear shox.
In combination with FOX 34 CTD or FOX 32 C TD forks it is also possible to have a platform
mode on the fork.
The 3 modes of CTCD in combination with FOX Nude are:
- Climb Mode : lock-out re ar, lock-out fro nt
- Traction Mode: traction mod e rear (incl. G eometry change and reduced travel), platform
mode front
- Descent M ode: full travel rear (Descent), full travel front
The 3 modes of CTD in combin ation with the FOX CTD sh ock are:
- Climb Mode : lock-out re ar, lock-out fro nt
- Ride Mod e: platform (Ride) mode rear, platform m ode front
- Descent M ode: full travel rear (Descent), full travel front

ENGLISHENGLISH
Therefore SCOTT offers 2 dif ferent TW INLOC levers with following fork/rear shock
combinations:
- FOX Nude with dif ferent rolls for FOX CTD fork and RockShox DNA 3 fork
(SCOTT Article nu mber: 23 0097 )
- FOX CTD with different rolls for FOX CTD fork and Rock Shox DNA 3 fork (S COTT Article
number: 230098)
Please note that th e FOX CTD rear shock does not of fer a traction mode, but a platform
mode. In co ntrary to FOX Nude the air-chamber volume of the positive chambe r remains the
same throughout the different modes
IMPORTANT!
You can only assemble the TWI NLOC remote lever in “left side upward position” on the
hand le ba r.
You have 3 positions of the TWINLOC remote lev er.
1. CLIMB MODE:
the shock is lo cked; climbin g on asphalt roa ds is now possible without any power loss.
Simultane ous a blow-off-system prevent s the shock be ing damaged in case the rider did
not open the system while crossin g obstacles.
2. TRAC TIO N/RIDE MODE:
For Traction: by reducin g the internal ch amber volum e inside the sh ock the travel of the
shock will be reduced to around 65% - 70% the chara cteristic of the a ir spring get s harder,
the SAG is shorter and the geometry steeper. This results in climbing without “ bobbing”
and offers still optimum traction of the rea r wheel.
For Ride: by adding a platform on the compression damping system the shock will not
bounce whil e standing o n the pedals
3. DESCENT MODE:
full travel of 150/130mm ( 700 / 900)
You will find the following positions on the remote lever:
For the assem bly of the remote control of the front fork lock-out 2 dif ferent cable rolls which
are changeable are existing.
The different roll for the pull of the fork remote ca ble can be changed within few minutes to
adapt the lever to your fork model/brand.
You will see on the downside of the roll the indication of the fork brand or the fo rk model.
SCOT T offe rs 2 different TWINLOC levers with following fork/rear shock co mbinations:
- FOX Nude with dif ferent rolls for FOX CTD fork and RockShox DNA 3 fork (SCOT T
Article number: 23 0097 )
- FOX CTD with different rolls for FOX CTD fork and Rock Shox DNA 3 fork (S COTT Article

the abovementioned asse mbly and setup of the FOX Nu de.
For more details on the FOX CTD please follow the details shown in the manuals of FOX
attached to this bike.
•
RECOMMENDED TOOLS FOR THE SHOCK SET-UP
For the set-up of the shock we recommend to use a shock p ump with a scale u p to 20
bars/30 0 psi with a special air valve conne ctor preventing from air getting away while
removing the pump from the shock valve, this will result in an exact air pressure.
Please note that air will flow into the hose and indicator when counterch ecking the air
pressure, so you have to set up again the recommende d pressure af ter this action.
Make sure to balan ce at least this air loss when you make a check of the air pressure of the
shock. Please also note that th e indicators of shock pumps have a tolerance of max . 10%.
•
SET-UP GENIUS WITH FOX NUDE OR FOX CTD SHOCK
The Set-Up of th e FOX Nude or FOX CTD Shock can be easy done within a few minutes.
IMPORTANT!
For all adjustments of the air spring the rem ote lever has to be in position “alltravel ”
To adjust the air pressu re of the air chamber of the FOX Nude o r FOX CTD Shock please
refer to the following instruction:
1. Remove the valve cap of the va lve (s5) located on the shock housin g (S3).
2. Mount the sh ock pump with its adaptor on the valve
3. Please take into acco unt that it takes so me air pressure from inside the shock to drive the
indicator on the pump. Make sure to balance at le ast this air loss when you make a che ck
of the air pressu re of the shock. Pls also note that the indicators of shock pumps have a
tolerance of max. 10%
4. Please use the FOX iRD App available at the iTunes Ap p store with following lin k:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/fox-intelligent-ride-dyna mics/id549 035102?mt=8&ignmpt=uo%3D4)
5. After downloading the app o n your mobile gear please follow the steps shown in th e app

SAG
The SAG should be 14mm (700) respectively 12. 5mm (900 / 700 Plus) on the shock piston.
To check the adjustment, please fo llow as shown below:
1. sit on the bike, put your feet on the pedal
2. put your feet back on the groun d and stand over th e bike without bo uncing the bike
during this action
3. check if the o- ring (S9) on the shock piston (S8) has a distance of 14/12.5mm to the main
dust wiper/seal betwe en shock housing and pi ston.
- if the distance between the o-ring a nd the main dust wiper/seal is 14/12.5mm, the air
pressure is matching to your weight
- if the distance between the o-ring a nd the main dust wiper/seal is less than 14/12.5mm,
the air pressure of the air chamb er is too high and should be ca refully reduced by using
the bleed knob of the shock pump until the distance is 14/ 12.5mm.
- if the distance between the main dust wiper/seal is bigger than 14/12.5mm the air
pressure of the ai r chamber is too low and should b e increased by using the shock pump
until the distance is 14/12.5mm.
•
SET-UP OF REBOUND FOX NUDE OR FOX CTD SHOCK
“Rebou nd” describes the speed the shock comes back to its original length after absorbing
an obstacle.
By using the reb ound adjuster knob (S4) you ca n adjust the rebound step by s tep.
Please refer to the following instruction:
Ride your bike of f a pavement (remain in th e saddle) and check how many times it bounces.
- If it bounces 1-2 times, th e set up is good.
- If it bounces more than 3 times the rebound is too fast. Turn the knob 1-2 “clicks”
clockwise
- If it does not bounce the reb ound is too slow. Turn the knob 1 -2 “clicks” counter
clockwise.
IMPORTANT!
Note that you have to mount th e FOX Nude Shock always as shown be low.
Mounting the rear shock in a different position can cause severe damage to the frame, th e
linkage levers and the rear shock .
Same for the FOX CTD on some of the G enius models.
IMPORTANT!
After a disma ntlement of the rear shock, b oth fixing bolts should be tightened with a
tightening torque of 10Nm/8 8in-lbs.
If this is not don e correctly the re ar shock can be damaged.
