SCOTT Strike eRide 930 Bike

We have adopted the new Metric shock sizing standards with a Trunnion mount. Since the shock body now extends between the two lower mounting bolts, our suspension partners have more design space. This means the shock has more stroke for the same eye to eye length. Stroke on the 165mm eye to eye shock has increased from 38mm to 40/45mm.The Trunnion standard also offers structural gains. The shorter shock enables us to build a very compact frame and shock package, which integrates tightly to the seat tube. We managed to have a very tiny yet stiff linkage-lighter than ever. Thanks to the Trunnion mount construction, stand over height on the new Spark is very low. We are still able to realize a super compact full suspension frame and provide the ability to mount both a small and big water bottle.

The Spark family maintains the 165mm eye-to-eye shock length of the previous Spark 900 (our shortest shock), but realises up to 7mm more shock stroke. All Spark RC and most Spark and Spark Plus bikes utilize the FOX Nude shock, specially made for SCOTT:

-165mm Metric Trunnion shock

-40mm (100mm travel RC Spark line-up) vs. 38mm (old Spark)

-45mm (120mm travel Spark line-up)

By turning the Trunnion shock upside-down, we can fully integrate it into the frame which results in several benefits.Since the Trunnion mount is the same width as the down tube and mainpivot, we can have a very clean frame design in this critical area. The lack of tight transitions and small details allows for an efficient, continuous carbon structure. Carbon material added to reinforce the shock mount also stiffens the connection between the down tube, main pivot and bottom bracket, a key stiffness path.

The flipped shock also lowers the frame’s center of gravity helping to give a more planted feel when riding. Unsprung mass is reduced since it is the lighter part of the shock, connected to the linkage, not the heavier body which must move during an impact – the suspension system can react faster.Our TwinLoc remote cable can be routed cleanly into the down tube.

Com o TwinLoc, o betetista pode controlar efectivamente o quadro, a suspensão e o amortecedor como um sistema. E porque é que isto é importante? Uma bicicleta com 150mm de curso, devidamente afinada, tem mais "sag" que uma bicicleta com 130mm de curso. Mas se esse curso extra, embora se transforme em diversão e mais controlo nas descidas, também origina mais "sag", ou seja, afecta a geometria da bicicleta e a sua performance a subir. É neste ponto que o TwinLoc importa.

O Twinloc ajuda a afinar o "sag" em diversos sentidos. Enquanto outros sistemas apenas aumentam a compressão a baixas-velocidades de forma a aumentar a eficiência de pedalada, o TwinLoc permite não só mudar o amortecimento na compressão, mas também muda a curva da mola, alterando por isso a geometria da bicicleta. No modo Trail, o amortecedor fica mais firme, mas também usa dinamicamente menos curso. O bloco pedaleiro fica mais elevado, optimizando o ângulo da bicicleta em subida, tornando a bicicleta mais ágil. Também existe um terceiro modo, o lockout, que torna as passagens por subidas e zonas planas mais eficientes.

As afinações únicas do sistema optimizam o comportamento da bicicleta em subida, mesmo as que têm cursos mais elevados. Conseguimos eliminar a sensação de pedalada "com curso longo" que rouba eficiência, mas não retiramos diversão ao uso dos 150mm de curso quando apontam a bicicleta para baixo. Seja numa competição, numa volta rápida, num BTT depois do trabalho, a facto de podermos mudar de modo de forma a nos adaptarmos ao terreno, criamos novas possibilidades para a disciplina Trail. 

Classic E-Bike systems use a speed sensor consisting of a magnet fixed onto a spoke of the rear wheel and the sensor itself normally located on the left chainstay. This sensor gives information to the drive unit regarding the speed which is crucial for assist management. That's why; we've developed a patented magnet mount to improve the system's integration and reliability. The magnet has been integrated into the lock ring of the Shimano rotor and the sensor is fixed in the left dropout. As a result the sensor and the magnet, compared with more traditional positioning, are now more integrated and protected from impact and dirt- both normal consequences of off road riding.

• Scott patented solution
• Improved assist management
  

With our mountain bikes, we try to achieve ultimate versatility. These specific models can switch from 27.5" to 29" wheels with nothing more than the flip of a chip. No need to change the fork, all you need to do is flip a shock mount chip, change your wheels and off you go. The flip chip allows us to maintain a similar BB height when switching from one wheel size to the other which is key to keeping handling similar for both wheel sizes. With 27.5" wheels, you can run either 2.5", 2.6" or 2.8" tires. For the 29er, anywhere from 2.4"-2.6" is good to go.  

Our suspension kinematic brings perfect balance and control to the platform. Using our Virtual Four Link design, we have honed our suspension feel, pedaling and braking response to work with maximum efficiency and in harmony with our TwinLoc Suspension System. Our kinematic suspension curve gives supple small bump sensitivity and therefore exceptional traction characteristics, perfect support in the mid-stroke and a controlled deep stroke for predictable and comfortable bottom outs. Specific pivot placements ensures efficient pedaling that drives the bike forwards like a startled greyhound and neutral braking that strikes a perfect balance between rider comfort and control, chassis stability and rear wheel traction. From the XC racer, to the downhill enthusiast, the kinematic brings improvements and advantages in all areas and gives a solid fundamental basis for a bike for all riders and all conditions. 

Integration is a key factor on SCOTT eRIDE bikes. We don’t build simple bikes with motors on top. We have a dedicated team of engineers and designers specialized in e-bikes for finding the most advanced designs in terms of drive unit integration. Each bike is the result of months of research and testing to develop the best geometry with regards to the Drive Unit and customer needs.Therefore, SCOTT's engineering team has developed unique integrated solutions to improve the design of the bike but as well as its efficiency. Regardless of the drive system mounted on the bike, the integrated design improves the balance of the bike and its durability, this also allows for the option of a bottle cage mount.

A bike deserves better than to lie on the ground when you are checking the lines of the trail or when you are taking a break. This is why we have integrated a kickstand mount on the chainstay. To provide a perfect integration and an optimal stability for all types of terrain, the kickstand is directly fixed into the frame.
