Overview
About this bike
Scott's Contessa Spark RC will take your off-roading to the next level. Its light, nimble and fast Scott HMF-carbon frame sports a shorter top tube and lower stand-over height for an ideal fit and outstanding power transfer and control. Plus, you get a low-rise handlebar and women's seat for total comfort. Meanwhile, the 120mm-travel RockShox SID fork and three-way adjustable rear shock flatten any obstacles on the way to the finish line. And, so you can blitz every trail, the Spark rolls on excellent DT Swiss wheels, has powerful Shimano XT brakes for speed control, and boasts a precision Shimano 10-speed XT drivetrain for conquering the climbs.
