When you think of the perfect mountain bike, what comes to mind? For us, it's the all new Spark 970. Why, you ask? Well, beyond the fact that it is fast, lightweight and ultra capable on all sorts of terrain, it's just damned good lookin'. Short-travel trail bike? "Downcountry" rig? Occasional race bike? Whatever, call it what you want to call it. All we know is that this is one hell of a mountain bike.

With two consecutive world championships in the past two years, the Scott Spark has revolutionised modern mountain bike design. With a lightweight alloy frame, coupled to reliable componentry from SRAM and Rockshox, you'll be ready to take on any trail. The Scott Spark 970 features air-adjustable suspension front and rear, as well as lockout and rebound adjustment. This gives riders the ability to fine tune their suspension to meet their exact needs.

All Scott Spark models feature Scott's patented Twin-Loc System, giving you three suspension modes that can be changed using the bar-mounted lever. The three modes give you the perfect setting for all conditions, whether it's climbing a mountain or descending rough, rocky terrain.


With multiple models in the Scott Spark range, there's definitely a model to meet your needs on the trail. If you're after a budget-friendly trail bike that's ready for adventure or even the occasional race, the Scott Spark 970 is the bike for you.
