The SCOTT Spark 970 is a versatile, high-performance full-suspension mountain bike built for riders who want a machine ready for trail, gravel, forest tracks and demanding climbs or descents. It combines a lightweight alloy frame, efficient suspension design, and solid components to create an all-around trail weapon.
The frame is built from Spark Alloy SL 6011 with Integrated Suspension Technology, Flex Pivot linkage and adjustable head angle – offering stiffness, responsiveness and geometry adjustability to suit terrain. The rear triangle uses a 12x148 mm thru-axle and a BB92 bottom bracket for better power transfer and durability.
Front suspension is handled by a RockShox Judy Silver TK Solo Air fork with 130 mm of travel, rebound damping and lockout function for more efficiency on flats. The rear shock is the X-Fusion NUDE 5 RLX with 120 mm of travel and three selectable modes (Lockout, Traction Control, Descend) for instant adaptation to terrain conditions.
The drivetrain is a 1x12 system with SRAM NX Eagle rear derailleur, SRAM SX Eagle trigger shifter, 32T crankset and an 11–50T cassette. This setup ensures a wide gear range and crisp, reliable shifting both uphill and on fast downhills. The Eagle chain completes the smooth powertrain.
Braking is managed by hydraulic disc brakes with 180 mm rotors front and rear – providing consistent and powerful braking even in technical terrain or changing weather.
The wheels are 29” with Syncros X-30SE 30 mm rims and Schwalbe Wicked Will 29x2.4" Performance / Addix tyres – giving solid grip, roll-over ability and durability on off-road trails and gravel.
The cockpit includes a Syncros Fraser 2.0 DC handlebar (760 mm wide, 8° back sweep), Syncros DC 3.0 stem and lock-on grips. The Syncros Duncan Dropper Post allows on-the-fly saddle height adjustment, especially useful for downhill or tight terrain.
Weight is approx. 14.95 kg (with tubes), and max system weight (bike + rider + gear) is 128 kg.
