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.

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)

REAR SHOCK-TECHNOLOGY
The heart of the TC-System is the new developed and innovative Scott Equalizer 3
Shock made by DT Swiss, offering three functions which make this system possible.
By using the TWINLOC remote lever you can chose following functions on the rear
shock:
1. ALL TRAVEL MODE: full travel of 185mm
2. TRACTION MODE: by reducing the internal chamber volume inside the shock the
travel of the shock will be reduced to around 60% (approx. 110mm) the characteristic
of the air spring gets harder. This results in climbing without “bobbing” and offers
GENIUS LT
still optimum traction of the rear wheel.
3. LOCK OUT MODE: the shock is locked; climbing on asphalt roads is now possible
without any power loss. Simultaneous a blow-off-system prevents the shock being
damaged in case the rider did not open the system while crossing obstacles.

SET-UP GENIUS WITH EQUALIZER 3 SHOCK
For the set-up of the shock we recommend to use a shock pump with a scale up to 40
bars/600 psi with a special air valve connector 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 counterchecking the
air pressure, so you have to set up again the recommended pressure after this action.
Make sure to balance at least this air loss when you make a check of the air pressure
of the shock. Pls also note that the indicators of shock pumps have a tolerance of
max. 10%

The Set-Up of the Scott/DT Equalizer 3 Shock can be easy done within a few minutes..
To adjust the air pressure of the air chamber of the Scott Equalizer 2 Shock please refer
to the following instruction:
1. remove the valve cap of the positive valve (S8) which is the LOWER valve
on the shock body and mount the shock pump with its adaptor on the valve.
2. pump the recommended pressure into the shock. On the shock body
you will find a table showing the recommended air pressure of the positive
chamber according to the rider’s weight.
3. when you reached the needed pressure remove the pump and put the valve
cap on the valve
4. remove the valve cap of the negative valve (S9) which is the UPPER valve
on the shock body and mount the shock pump with its adaptor on the valve
5. pump the recommended pressure into the shock. On the shock body
you will find a table showing the recommended air pressure of the negative
chamber according to the rider’s weight.

SAG
SET-UP OF REBOUND EQUALIZER 3 SHOCK
The SAG should be 18mm on the shock piston, which means approx. 25% SAG in
Full Travel Position
To check the adjustment, please follow as shown below:
1. Sit on the bike, put your feet on the pedal.
2. Put your feet back on the ground and stand over the bike without bouncing the
bike during this action
3. Check if the SAG indicator arrow matches with the indication on the shockbody
GENIUS LT
- if arrow and indication match the air pressure is matching to your weight
- if the arrow is above the indication on the shock body the air pressure of the air
chamber is too high and should be carefully reduced by using the bleed knob of the
shock pump until arrow and indication match
- if the arrow is below the indication on the shock body the air pressure of the air
chamber is too low and should be increased by using the shock pump until arrow
and indication match
“Rebound” describes the speed the shock comes back to its original length after
absorbing an obstacle.
By using the red rebound screws (S6 & S7) on the upper side of the Air Chambers you
can adjust the rebound step by step.
S6/S7
Please refer to the following instruction:
Ride your bike off a pavement (remain in the saddle) and check how many times it
bounces.
- if it bounces 1-2 times, the set up is good.
- If it bounces more than 3 times the rebound is too fast.
Turn BOTH screws 1-2 “clicks” clockwise
- If it does not bounce the rebound is too slow.
Turn BOTH screws 1-2 “clicks” counter clockwise.

SET-UP OF OTHER SHOCK MODELS
FRONT DERAILLEUR (FD) MOUNTING DETAILS
Scott strongly recommends using only the Scott Equalizer 3 Shock with the
Genius LT bike, as we designed both parts for a perfect matching combination with
a linear suspension rate.
If you want to use a different rear shock model than the one originally on the bike,
please make sure that the shock will not in any position hit the frame and cause a
damage to the frame.
Please follow the instruction below:
GENIUS LT
- Please make sure that the rear shock or its accessory parts do not touch the frame
when mounting or suspending.
For doing so release the air/remove the coil, install the shock and extend the shock
completely.
- If the shock touches the frame while doing so, do not use this shock in order to avoid
damage to frame, swing arm or shock.
BB STANDARDS
Genius LT with is available with 2 different Bottom Bracket systems.

PIVOT MAINTENANCE
The pivot and bearings on SCOTT Genius LT are extremely easy to maintain.
An external treatment with a grease spray after every bike wash is all you have to do.
We do not recommend heavy grease sprays since these will leave a film on the parts
which is difficult to remove. We recommend the same for the chain also.
If you have to change the bearings you can order them included in a service kit at your
local SCOTT dealer with
219565 Swingarm-Rep. Kit Genius LT
or buy them with international parts number as shown below in a hardware store.
- 4 x 6802 (15x24x5mm)
- 2 x 6803 (17x26x5mm)
- 2 x 61800 (10x19x5mm)
In case of a change of the bearings or of the rear swingarm you should contact your

WARRANTY
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 Gambler, Voltage Fr and Volt-X 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
The warranty is solely granted in case of purchase of a completely assembled bike to the
explicit exclusion of purchases of not completely assembled bikes.
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.
Hereby SCOTT grants a voluntarily manufacturer’s warranty. Additional entitlements
according to national warrant of merchantability are reserved.
