The Spark 29 Expert is a full suspension HMF carbon fiber bike with a Shimano XT/SLX drivetrain and Avid Elixir brakes that is the perfect partner for marathons, stage races, and all day fun.


Technology

Direct Post Mount
Scott saved even more weight by eliminating bulky brake hardware for mounting the rear caliper and integrated a direct post mount to the chain stay. This mounting position also decreases the load the brakes apply to the swingarm parts.

Tapered Headtube
The Spark features a tapered head tube for increased stiffness, safety, confidence, and control.

Adjustable BB Height
The Spark employs an adjustable geometry by way of a shock mount chip in the linkage. By changing the shock mount chip, simply removing it and flipping it in either mounting position, you affect the bottom bracket height by 7mm, which also affects the head tube angle by 0.5 degrees. The Spark is the only XC/ Marathon bike on the market that offers this feature.

IDS SL Dropout System
Interchangeable and lightweight, the IDS-SL dropout system works with 142x12mm, 135x12mm and 135x5mm QR rear axle standards. Shred the turns more aggressively and with enhanced control, because the rear end is laterally stiff.

Twinloc Lever System
Scott patented Twin Loc technology now offers simultaneous control of rear shock travel and fork lockout. The open position allows full travel, front and rear. One click switches the rear shock to Traction mode, while the fork remains fully active. Click again and rear shock and fork lock at the same time. No other bike in the world offers this user friendly system. Found on the Spark & Genius and Genius LT models.
