Combining Scott's award-winning Spark RC platform with premium components and cutting-edge frame technology, the Spark RC Expert delivers World Cup-inspired performance in a package designed for serious racers and ambitious riders alike.
At the heart of the bike is Scott's advanced Spark RC Carbon HMF frame, featuring the brand's revolutionary Integrated Suspension Technology. By housing the rear shock within the frame structure, Scott has created a lighter, stiffer, and more responsive chassis that enhances power transfer, improves handling precision, and protects critical suspension components from mud and trail debris. The result is a remarkably clean design that performs as well as it looks.
Designed to tackle the demands of modern cross-country racing, the Spark RC Expert features 120mm of front and rear suspension travel. This increased travel provides greater control and confidence on technical descents while maintaining the climbing efficiency that has made the Spark RC one of the most successful XC race bikes in the world. Scott's renowned suspension design ensures excellent traction, reduced rider fatigue, and outstanding efficiency across varied terrain.
The bike is equipped with a Fox 34SL Factory suspension fork and a custom-tuned Fox Float Factoryrear shock, controlled via Scott's intuitive remote suspension system. Riders can instantly switch between Lockout, Traction Control, and Descend modes, optimising performance for steep climbs, technical sections, and high-speed descents without taking their hands off the bars.
Shifting performance comes from a premium Shimano XT Di2Transmission drivetrain, delivering crisp, reliable gear changes and exceptional durability. Built to handle the demands of modern racing, the drivetrain provides smooth shifting under load and dependable performance in all conditions.
Powerful hydraulic disc brakes deliver precise control and confidence-inspiring stopping power, while lightweight tubeless-ready wheels and fast-rolling Maxxis tyres ensure efficient acceleration, reduced rolling resistance, and excellent grip across loose and technical terrain.
Scott's race-focused geometry has been refined using feedback from elite athletes and World Cup competition. The Spark RC Expert features an adjustable head angle, allowing riders to tailor handling characteristics to suit different courses and riding styles. Combined with internal cable routing and integrated cockpit design, the bike offers a clean, streamlined appearance with exceptional performance benefits.
Whether you're lining up for a cross-country race, tackling marathon events, or simply looking for one of the fastest and most capable full-suspension mountain bikes available, the Scott Spark RC Expert is built to help you ride faster, further, and with greater confidence.
