GENIUS LT CONCEPT

GEOMETRY GENIUS LT

Genius LT is a new step on All Mountain Bikes, redefining this category of bikes with a maximum travel of 185mm but yet good in uphill sections.

Scott’s focus was not only on lightweight but also on a durable frame with an innovative suspension technology in combination with an optimized kinematics of the rear swingarm.

The combination of an optimized kinematics with an extraordinary suspension technology closes the gap between superlight dual-suspension marathon oriented bikes (e.g. Scott Genius) and the new generation of freeride bikes (e.g. Scott Voltage FR).

GENIUS LT

Genius LT was designed for riders looking for a dual suspended All Mountain Bikes bike offering a maximum rear wheel travel of 185mm.

Scott does not see frame, rear shock and kinematics as single components which are assembled together on a bike, but as a concept with all these components working together and offering an outrageous function by matching perfectly.

The Genius LT Concept is based on a new designed multi-pivot technology. In combination with the linear shock characteristics the chain tension will be reduced

and doing so the pedaling will not influence function or movement of the rear swingarm.

The Scott system, named TC (Traction Control) will allow you to reduce by remote control the rear wheel travel from 185mm to 110mm including a more progressive spring rate but still offering a supple break away.

No power will be lost and an optimum power transfer is guaranteed as the swingarm, in contrary to locked or automatic-locking systems, can follow the trail surface and will offer perfect traction and higher speed while standing on the pedals.

In addition the patented Scott TWINLOC system will help you to lock-out the front fork also on the fly with a remote control combined with the one of the rear shock.

TWINLOC – REMOTE CONTROL LEVER

LOCK OUT MODE

TRACTION MODE

ALL TRAVEL MODE

PRESS TO RELEASE

FORK REMOTE CONTROL CABLE

The TWINLOC remote control lever is the evolution of the already outstanding TRACLOC system of Scott.

While TRACLOC allowed the change on the Scott rear shocks Nude TC and Equalizer 2 between the Scott patented Lock-out, traction and full-mode on the fly from the handlebar, the TWINLOC in combination with Equalizer 3 and a RockShox/SRAM fork on Genius LT now allows also the remote control of the front fork to shift between lock-out and open mode at the same time when you change the modes on the Scott rear shox.

GENIUS LT

The 3 modes on the lever and suspension units are:

- Full Travel Mode: full travel rear, full travel front

- Traction Mode: traction mode rear, full travel front

- Lock-out Mode: lock-out rear, lock-out front

Scott offers as a spare part the TWINLOC lever for Equalizer 3 for RockShox/SRAM fork with Scott article number 219562.

Important: You can only assemble the TWINLOC remote lever in “left side upward position” on the handlebar.

You have 3 positions on the TWINLOC remote lever.

- most forward position: lock-out rear, lock-out front

- middle position: traction mode rear, full travel front

- most backward position: full travel rear, full travel front

Change the modes by pushing the lever with your fingers frontward and release them by tapping the release button (one mode per push/release)

Press to release

ASSEMBLY OF THE REMOTE CABLE

SRAM/RockShox forks:

Important:

Please make sure the lockout of SRAM/RockShox fork is activated after transport correctly. Therefore please compress fork 5-10 times before following the manual on remote cable installation and adjustment.

The lever should show on the downside of the able roll follow indication:
