SCOTT Spark 960
Product Description
Fast is fun. It’s SCOTT Bicycles’ marketing catch phrase for a reason and the 2023 SCOTT Spark 960 full suspension cross country mountain bike aims to be the most fun bike you can find because they believe it’s also the fastest bike you can find at the price.
The 2023 SCOTT Spark 960 full suspension cross country mountain bike is fast. Really fast. Designed to propel racers to victory at World Cup race, the Olympics and mid-week training races alike - or simply to provide all the tools needed to set KOMs or PRs. With revolutionary technology and top end components, SCOTT’s best delivers performance limited only by the rider. Throw in a little more travel in the fork and you’re ready to attack the descents with gusto.
If fast, and therefore fun, is your goal, the 2023 SCOTT Spark 960 is your ride. A rugged alloy frame is lightweight, strong and climbs like a dream with a beefed up suspension system to add a little extra downhill capability to the already quick cross country legend.
Boasting SCOTT’s patented new Integrated Suspension Technology which stealthily conceals the rear shock inside the frame, the Spark 960 offers an unrivaled level of performance and possibilities. Racing up and down hills, flying through rock gardens and sending it through berms and jumps has never been more within reach.
Featuring a RockShox Judy 130mm fork and X-Fusion Nude 5 shock with SCOTT’s TwinLoc remote system, the SCOTT Spark 960 is as plush as it gets. A Shimano XT-Deore 1x12 drivetrain with an integrated power meter blend with a Shimano disc brake set to provide an unmatched level of stop and go performance. A set of 29 inch Syncros X-30SE TR wheels and Schwalbe Wicked Will tires with a 2.4 inch width create a dependable and responsive footprint to ensure maximum traction and power transfer from leg to the dirt.
Built up with high-end Syncros components and parts from front to back and top to bottom and a Syncros Dropper Post , the 2023 SCOTT Spark 960 is one of the most race ready bikes you’ll find at the bike shop or on the trails.
