2024 Scott Spark RC Team Issue TR

Overview

About this bike

The Spark RC Team Issue is the perfect blend of top-notch carbon engineering, never-before-seen levels of integration, and just the right amount of secret sauce. We wanted to make this platform faster than ever before both up and down the hill. Increasing travel, perfecting geometry, and applying input from the world's best athletes, we've created the cross-country race bike of all cross-country race bikes. If you think fast is fun, then you're going to love this ride. Key Features: - Spark RC Carbon HMF Frame - FOX 34 SC Float Perf. 120mm Fork - FOX Nude 5 EVOL, 120mm, TwinLoc - SRAM GX Eagle AXS Transmission - Shimano XT Disc Brakes - Syncros Silverton 2.0 TR Wheels - Maxxis Rekon Race Foldable Tires - FOX Dropper Post, Syncros CF Parts Technologies: - Evo-Lap technology With the proper selection of materials, eighty percent of the work to create a frame is done. But the remaining twenty percent requires most of our efforts. For this reason, our choice of the most advanced carbon fibers in the market is followed by intensive use of specific tools, like FEA (finite element analysis) software, to map out the carbon lay-up. - Adjustable Head Angle The all-new Spark features an easily adjustable head angle. - Easy Shock Access It is very easy to access the shock on the all-new Spark. - Patented Integrated Suspension System An integrated shock platform allows us to refine suspension characteristics without sacrificing weight. Often, when working with bikes at this level, the concept of marginal gains becomes an ever-important one. - Rear Axle Tool Our rear axle tool has been a staple on our bikes for years, it is now better than ever. It features a T25, T30, and a 6 Allen key all in one. With these three options, you can adjust all pivot hardware and nearly everything else there is to adjust on the bicycle. - Single Pivot Suspension Layout A full-suspension bike will never have success without, well, a good suspension design. From the first time we rode the Spark’s single pivot layout we fell in love. Years later, we still believe that for technical cross-country racing and fast, punchy singletrack it is the best approach. The Spark’s suspension layout has a very specific and proven kinematic and less unsprung mass. Using a flex pivot in the seat stay is an ideal solution for bikes in this travel range. This allows us to keep a very lightweight system while still ensuring optimal suspension performance.
