Bicicleta SCOTT Spark RC World Cup

Com a selecção adequada de materiais, oitenta porcento do trabalho para criar um quadro está feito. Mas os restantes vinte porcento requerem a maioria do nosso esforço. Por esta razão, após a escolha das fibras de carbono mais avançadas do mercado, utilizamos ferramentas específicas, como software FEA(finite element analysis) de forma a mapear com precisão a direção e colocação de cada camada de fibra de carbono.

Com o software FEA, podemos simular a aplicação de diferentes forças num modelo virtual do quadro e ajustar a construção de forma a obter o resultado desejado. O software FEA permite-nos criar protótipos virtuais completos, incorporando todos os fenómenos físicos conhecidos que existem no mundo real.

Com a nossa tecnologia EvoLap, conseguimos modelar o quadro de forma a optimizar a área superficial, simular estruturas de tubos com diferentes orientações de fibras, observar os resultados de diferentes configurações e testar a distribuição de stress nas diferentes áreas do quadro. Graças a este extenso trabalho de modelação em computador, Nós’ optimizámos todas as camadas de carbono no nosso quadro. Quando as várias partes são fundidas nos primeiros protótipos, o resultado é um quadro super leve e compacto sem sacrificar a rigidez, comforto e resistência ao impacto. Toda a gama beneficia da nossa Tecnologia EvoLap.

With the new Spark, you can adjust the head angle by .6 degrees slacker or steeper. This can be done without cutting cables or bleeding brakes. All you must do is disassemble the bar, rotate the headset cups 180 degrees, and reassemble. 

Accessing the shock via the bottom bracket area is facilitated through a hatch. This makes it easy to adjust rebound, compression, shock pressure, and for installing or replacing the cable for our TwinLoc 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.

For the optimal performance of a suspension shock, power transfer must be the most direct possible. What we want to avoid are any inefficient directional movements, in other words, lateral movements (sideways to the direction of travel) as the shock goes through its compression. 

Having an integrated shock allows us to improve this in several ways. Firstly, the frame construction around the shock and with the trunnion mount can be designed to be much more rigid, reducing movement and fostering more efficient power transfer. We can also add much larger bearings to the seat tube pivot, further reinforcing this area and reducing any unnecessary motion. Our integrated Suspension technology also helps us to engineer frames with a lower shock placement which lowers center of gravity. As a result, the bike benefits from better handling, and a more stable, confidence inspiring ride for the end user. 

While these may seem like minor improvements individually, the sum of their parts results in more efficient shock performance. Additionally, the shock is fully protected from any foreign elements. Rainy race? No problem, your shock will continue to perform at its best regardless. 

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. 

A full suspension bike will never have success without, well, 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.

A bicicleta mais rápida de Cross-Country inclui agora o novo sistema de suspensão RockShox Flight Attendant. Este sistema automatizado controla a suspensão, adaptando-a à sua condução.

The New Spark features an all-new Fraser iC combo from Syncros. Integrating the cables presents a number of unique problems and the Fraser was designed in part to address this. Syncros’s designers worked on the shape to allow the cables to flow under the bar and around the sides of the stem before disappearing into the headset with integrated plastic parts to keep it clean and efficient. This avoids bends or kinks in the cables and provides a minimalist front end.  All our bars and stems feature multiple options for computer, light and camera mounts both on top or under the bar.
