Expirience with the Scott SPARK 900 TR

Scott SPARK 900 TR Review
Ludwig Döhl
With the SPARK 900 TR , Scott has gone into full innovation mode. The damper integrated into the frame and the sleek cable routing on the handlebars not only make the bike an aesthetic eye-catcher, but also bring real advantages when riding. The unique design combines a low frame weight, best stiffness values and also offers space for two bottle cages in the frame. Of course, the Twin-Loc lever for locking the undercarriage is also standard on the new Spark. The weight of a bike is a central factor for riding pleasure on any kind of terrain. With 11,4 kg, the Scott SPARK 900 TR is one of the lightest Trailbike on the market, which makes for great riding on singletrails. With its balanced handling, riding the Scott feels really intuitive. The combination of a long top tube and low stack value will make you sit sporty on the SPARK 900 TR. Finally, here is another killer argument: in price range tours with proper trails, the Trailbike von Scott is one of the best models in the tours with proper trails category. The guarantee of 5 years proves that Scott puts a lot of trust in its products.
