MECHANICS HINT
This pivot position combines perfect climbing uphill
with optimum freeride function on the downhill.
Priority while designing the Nitrous was to find a perfect hardcore Freeride/DH-bike.
SCOTT decided to use the pivot position of the swingarm of the Octane 2000-2002 which is already wellknown and highly appreciated by independent bike
magazines.

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 and open the three
cable brackets on the downtube.
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.
