GEOMETRY/TECHNICAL DATA SPARK RC 27.5"

SPARK CONCEPT
The Spark has the most succe ssful pedigree of any cross- country full suspension bike
ever made. At les s than 1749 grams with rear shock, the top of th e line model is one of
the lightest full suspensio n frames available on the market. The new platform was not only
designed to provide a lighter and stiffer frame, but also to optimize kinematics. The bike
includes a h ost of minute, exquisitely detailed smart techn ical solutions which combine to
make it one of the best overall full suspension cross country packages of all time.
The SCOT T Spark RC 700 series was enginee red with incredibly light materials. With
a combined we ight of 1749 grams, its f rame inclu ding shock is o ne of the lightest f ull
suspensio n rig to date. Meetin g our requirements for stif fness values and applying the
Boost standard to our race bike family, our engineers designed the Spark RC series with a
dedicated , no-co mpromise race target group in mind. The benchmark weight was not only
achieved by utilizing the lightest car bon fibers, but also thanks to our intelligent carbo n layup process.
Our historic expertise of carbon engineering is just one element that allows us to create such
light frame s. Utilizing a mix of new high-end carbo n fibers is another. Our HMX-SL Spark
frame utilizes th e strongest and lightest filaments to date. O ur choice of the m ost advance d
carbon fibers is followed by intensive use of specific tools, like FE A (Finite Element Analysis)
software , to map out the carbon lay-up. With our proprietary EvoLap -Technology, we can
simulate different forces on a virtual frame model an d adjust fra me construction accordin gly;
this allows us to build h ighly technic al frames.
When we designed the all new S park, we had o ne goal in min d: create the ultimate fullsuspensio n Cross-Co untry bike. C omparing the old and the n ew Spark, we’ve moved from a
single pivot top link design to a single pivot rocker link layout with a Trunnio n shock mount.
Refined suspension characteristics were one of our m ain intentions . We created a system
that offers sensitive characteristics at th e beginnin g of the travel, the perfect support from
sag point onwards plus an optimized end progression. The new Spark furthermore has a
higher main pivot position to offer the most ef ficient pe daling characteristics .
The new platform enable d us to realize everything you could want f rom modern fullsuspensio n geometr y- a slacker head angle for maximum stability, shorter chain stays for
agile handling and lower stand over height /center of gravity for a more planted feel . We
designed it with a low stack for an o ptimized race fit and with a long reach with shorter
stem options for the same fit and better han dling. A stee per seat tube offers more balanced
weight distrib ution and bet ter power transfer. With a large numbe r of riders and a wide
range of uses in mind, we develo ped no- compromise s, high per formance g eometry- a
modern interpretation of what progressive race rs and riders need.

IMPORTANT!
SCOTT Spark is designed around the BOOST pl atform so ma ny of the fitted parts: cranks/
wheels/dropo uts/forks d iffer fro m traditional cycle par ts. Always consult your aut horized
SCOTT dealer for advice on replacing or repairing any part of your SCOTT bike!
•
TWINLOC
The TWINLOC system offe rs simultaneous control of the front and rear shocks with a single
lever allowing the ride of the bike to be adjusted at the flick of a fi ng er.
The 3 basic fu nctions of T WINLOC syste m are:
- Climb-out Mode: Climb rear / climb front
- Traction Mode: Traction mode rear / platform mode front
- Descent Mode: Full travel rear / fu ll travel front
You can only assemble the “standard” TWI NLOC remote lever in “left side upward position”
on the handl ebar (this is usually fitted on bikes with x2 front chainrings.)
On bikes with x1 chainring on the front the under ba r TWINLOC remote lever in “left side
downward” positio n can be fitted as standard.
It is possible to ch ange the TWINLOC lever to the un derbar option if the bikes gears have
been chan ged to x1 system, a new alternative lever will be re quired for this a djustment ;
please consult your local S COT T dealer for more information on obtaining the correct lever
for you bike.
There are 3 positions of the TWI NLOC remote l ever.
1. CLIMB MODE:
The shock is nearly locked; climbing on asphalt roads is now possible with lit tle power loss.
A simultane ous blow-of f-system prevents the shock being damage d in case the rider does
not open the system while crossin g obstacles.
2. TRAC TION MODE:
By reducing th e internal cha mber volume inside the shock the travel of the sho ck will
be reduced , the charac teristic of the air spring gets h arder this results in climbing with
reduced “bobbing” an d offers still optimum traction of the rear wheel.
3. DESCENT MODE:
Full travel of the front and rear shocks.
You will find the following positions on the remote lever:
•
BASIC SET-UP OF SHOCK & FORKS
Recommended tools for th e shock setup:
- The SAG tool that came with your bike.
- A shock pum p with a dial up to 20bars/300psi with a specia l air valve conne ctor (not
supplied with this bike), this will help stop air f rom escaping while removing the pump
from the shock valve.
Please note that air will flow into the hose and indicator when counterch ecking the air
pressure, this will give the appearance that the shock has less air pressure then it was setup,
your shock may need to be adjusted once this action is made.
Please also n ote that the indicators of shock pumps have a tolerance of max. 10% .
For bikes spec ’d with Fox shock and forks:
You can find more specific inform ation about Fox set u p on Fox’s website, please use your
fork/shock I D number to find more useful setup tips for your exac t fork and sho ck (please
visit: ridefox.com)

SAG
You r SCOTT bike will be supplied with a SAG tool to help set up your bikes suspension, these
SAG tools can be easily clipped on the shock body and fork dus t seal.
For the best performance it is recommended you sta rt with SAG of 25-30% for shock s and
15-2 0% fo r forks.
1. Make sure before any adjustment is made that your shock and forks are in the “open”
position.
2. With the shock pu mp attache d to the rear shock valve, pump your d esired pressu re
into the shock. Once the pressure is achieved slowly compress and d ecompress your
shock throug h 25% of its travel 10 times. This will equalize the positive and negative air
chambers and will change the pressure on the pump gauge, if need ed add or reduce
pressure and repeat.
Note the compression/decompression of the rear shock through the travel must also
be done if th e pressure i s reduced!
3. Once your desired pressure is reached slide the rubber O -ring on the shock and for k leg
against the dust seal, clip on your SAG tool if required.
4. Sit on your bike in your usual riding position (in your riding ge ar: if you carry a bag/
Hydration-system put it on,) d on’t “boun ce” the suspension while doing this, use a wall or
a friend for support if needed.
5. Get off the bike gently without b ouncing an d check the O -ring position on the shaf t or
the fork stan chion, with th e SAG adjuster clipped on. This makes it easy to see where your
SAG is set. Example bel ow.
The same op eration is use d on the forks.
•
IMPORTANT!
Do not sit on your bike with the shock pump at tached to the bike!
•
REBOUND SHOCK SET-UP
“Rebou nd” describes the speed the shock retu rns back to its original length after absor bing
an obstacle, setting of this is very important for the h andling an d correct function of the bike.
The reboun d adjustment lever can be fou nd on the head of the shock
After the shock pressure/sag is co rrectly set ride your bike in a safe area with your riding
gear/backpack, etc. While re maining in the saddle, ride you bike off a drop/kerb of about
10-15 cm .
- If it bounce s 1-2 times and settles the set-u p is good.
- If it bounce s more than 3 time s the rebound is too fast, turn the knob 1-2 “clicks”
clockwise and repeat.
- If there is no bounce the rebound is too slow, turn the knob 1-2 click counter clockwise
and repeat.
- Repeat these steps until the d esired result is achieved .
You r SCOTT SPARK bike was desig ned to be used in conjunction with a specific sh ock and
forks, cha nging the shock or forks on your bike may cause poor/unsafe riding characteristic s
or damage to frame and components , please consult your SCOTT dealer for any assistance
