The Scott Spark 950 is an affordable full suspension trail bike that can fly up and down the mountains, covers long distances, and be a fun partner for mountain exploration. It is just as prepared for single track speed as it is for weekend adventures, making it as fun as it is fast. This bike is categorized as a trail bike but is just as ready for a cross country race or anything else you can throw at it. The Scott Spark is popular with non-racers but is still light, capable, and fast enough for virtually any day of racing. The kinematic suspension uses a flex point in the seat stay, allowing the bike to stay lightweight while maintaining its full suspension feel. This technology makes it a true all-around trail bike.
The Spark 950 uses a lightweight aluminum alloy for the frame, making it durable and affordable without much of a weight difference. The new Spark allows adjustments of the head angle by 0.6 degrees in either direction. At the front, you will find a Syncros iC integrated combo, keeping cables perfectly managed. The frame features a lightweight zone and a stiffness zone, covering all your bases and resulting in a dynamic ride. A 55mm chain line makes room for excellent tire clearance while maintaining the stiffness needed for great power transfer. The Spark features a fork that is 42mm offset for added stability at high speeds. The Scott Spark helps you go harder and faster through virtually any terrain.
Despite its nimble speed and fast acceleration, the Scott Spark 950 has a full suspension and great compliance to deal with anything the trail throws at you. RockShox Deluxe Select RL3 Trunnion suspension offers three modes of travel. Lockout turns the shock off; trail mode has 85mm of travel, and descend mode provides the full shock with 120mm of travel. Traction mode also steepens the seat tube angle, raises the bottom bracket, and brings the front wheel closer for efficient climbing without sacrificing a suspension for descending. This version of the Spark is equipped with a SRAM GX Eagle groupset for affordable mechanical 12-speed shifting. The Scott Spark 950 is lightweight, fast, and compliant for the rider who wants to take on all challenges on the trail.
