KINEMATICS Spark is the result of 2 years of research and development for the lightest mountain bike frame set available on the market, hitting the scale at below 1800 grams (4 pounds) including the frame, Scott Nude TC shock and TRAC-LOC remote control. The Spark Concept is based on a new designed multipivot technology. Scott’s focus was not only on lightweight but also on a durable frame with an innovative suspension technology in combination with an optimized kinematics of the rear swingarm.
SHOCK-TECHNOLOGY By using the TRAC- LOC remote lever you can chose following functions: 1. ALL TRAVEL MODE: full travel of 110mm 3. LOCK OUT MODE: the shock is locked; climbing on asphalt roads is now possible without any power loss. Simultaneous a blow-off-system prevents the shock being damaged in case the rider did not open the system while crossing obstacles.
BASIC SET-UP OF THE TRAC-LOC REMOTE CONTROL OF NUDE TC SHOCK NUDE TC SHOCK AND TRAC-LOC REMOTE CONTROL LEVER To ensure perfect function of the Nude TC shock it is very important to follow the steps shown below exactly S4 S6 1 thread in cable along the groove and pull it tight gently 2 press the release lever twice whilst still pulling the cable to set the lockout-lever into the "open" position 3 turn clockwise up to the stop by using a 2mm Allen key 4 keep the Allen key kept in its end position
(m mm Release the Allen key gently counterclockwise and pull it off 17 5 in) … BASIC SET-UP OF THE TRAC-LOC REMOTE CONTROL OF NUDE TC SHOCK Put on the end cap and make sure to have at least 17mm of free cable length. ENGLISH 7 6 Pull the cable tight ... then tighten the headless 3mm-screw by using a 1,5mm-Allen key. (max. 1.
For the set-up of the shock we recommend to use a shock pump with a scale up to 20 bars/300 psi with a special air valve connector preventing from air getting away while removing the pump from the shock valve, this will result in an exact air pressure. The Set-Up of the Scott Nude TC Shock can be easy done within a few minutes. Please note that air will flow into the hose and indicator when counterchecking the air pressure, so you have to set up again the recommended pressure after this action.
In case you want even more detailed figures of air pressure or tuning hints, you can download a program under www.scott-sports.com as a MS Excel file. Scott strongly recommends using only the Scott Nude TC Shock with the Spark bike, as we designed both parts for a perfect matching combination with a linear suspension rate.
ADJUSTMENT OF SEATPOST-HEIGHT The seatpost of the Scott Spark needs to be cut and adjusted to the personal seat height of the rider. The seatpost has to be inserted into the seattube at a minimum of 100mm. The tool to do so is added to your Spark and will help to cut properly without any risk of damaging your seat tube. Never use another seatpost diameter than 34.9mm or try to use a shim/reducer between seatpost and frame.
4. Slide the Spark Cutting Tool on the seat tube of Spark until the line of the marker is visible in the slot on the tool that will guide your saw blade. 5. Fix the two 5mm bolts with a 4mm Allen key with a tightening torque of 6 Nm (53 in-lbs). 6. Take a saw with a blade for cutting metal. Pllease only use a 10D/24T teeth blade to make sure not to damage the carbon tube 7. Cut the tube, remove the tool and take sandpaper to smoothen the edges of the cutting area.
