The direct and straight cable system on all our full
suspension models allows Smart Cable Routing which is
very resistant against water and dirt.
To change the cables simply unscrew the three cable
brackets on the downtube. [2]
Please note:
Install the washers in between brackets and frame,
otherwise the cables can be squeezed and in worst case
a failure of rear brake or derailleur can occur! [3]
Mechanics hint:
The outer housing of the cables can also be fixed on
the bottle cage with cable fixers, the two brackets
below the cage are not needed anymore. [4]
At SCOTT we are using since 1999 the new location of
the pivot, which has moved forward. This enables the
rider to go uphill standing on the pedals without loosing
power and having optimum grip on the ground.[1]
This pivot was designed at SCOTT using complex computer simulations.
We were confirmed by different and indepenent studies
of bicycling magazines and universities that we really
uncoupled drivetrain and suspension, which causes an
improved energy output of approximately 20%.
The brake away and spring rate remains unchanged and
can be adjusted to style and preference of the rider
itself.

The models of the G-Zero Endurance/Sportwoman
Series are equipped with an adjustable BB-height.
When mounting the rearshock in the upper position, you
will lower the BB 10mm and will reduce the travel to ca.
85mm.
This option is mostly made for CC-racers who want a
point of gravity of the bike.
If the shock is mounted to the lower position you will
get the BB-height known from Strikes from 2001 or you
will rise up the BB-height in comparison to the second
option for 10 mm. Travel will be in this position 100mm.
This position will be preferred in rough terrain.
Adjustable BB-height: Rear Shock Set Up :
The basic set up of air rear shock is easy and can be
done within few minutes.
You only need:
- a shock pump with a scale up to 20 bars/300 psi
- the SAG-Boy on the back of this manual
1. Sit on the bike, put your feet on the pedal
2. Check if the shock bolts correspond to the SAGBoy. If you don’t have the SAG-Boy on hand, the
difference between the two bolts should be
154mm. (Length of shock 165mm,SAG 11mm)
3. Is the difference in between the two bolts more
than 154mm the pressure inside the positive
chamber is too high. Is the difference less than
154mm the pressure inside the positive chamber
is too low. Change the pressure using the shock
pump step by step until you reach the optimum
SAG.
All air shocks should be adjusted according to the
manual of the rear shock producer taking account of
the SAG mentioned above.
Please note:
The bolts of the rear shock should be tightened
with max. 8 Nm after a disassembly of the shock,
otherwise the rear shock can be damaged.
