•WARNING: Suspension forks are designed to absorb shocks. If the fork is

too rigid and jammed, the terrain-induced shocks pass directly into the frame

without any damping. This could damage the suspension fork itself as well as

the frame. If your suspension fork has a lockout mechanism (d), do not activate

the lockout function when riding in rough terrain, but only when riding over

smooth terrain (roads, field tracks).

CAUTION: More information on adjusting and maintenance is available on the

internet at

CAUTION: Suspension fork manufacturers normally include manuals with their

deliveries. You find these manuals on the enclosed SCOTT info CD. Read these

carefully before changing any settings or doing any maintenance work on your

suspension fork.

REAR SUSPENSION

Full suspension SCOTT bikes are not only equipped with a suspension fork but also

with movable rear stays (e) which are sprung and damped by a rear shock. This

feature gives you better control of your SCOTT bike when riding cross-country or on

rough road surfaces. The (shock) loads on you and your SCOTT bike are noticeably

reduced. The rear shock normally works with an air spring element or – less fre-

quently – with coil springs. Damping is usually done by oil.

To work perfectly, the rear shock has to be adjusted to the weight of the rider, the

sitting posture and the intended use (f). Be sure to have this adjustment carried

out by your SCOTT dealer at the time of delivery.

For more information see the chapter “Rear suspension” in your detailed SCOTT

owner’s manual as well as in the manuals of the rear shock manufacturer on the

enclosed SCOTT info CD.

•SUSPENSION ON SCOTT BIKES

FRONT SUSPENSION

Lots of SCOTT bikes, in particular SCOTT mountain bikes, SCOTT cross and

SCOTT trekking bikes have suspension forks (a). This feature gives you better

control of your SCOTT bike when riding cross-country or on rough road surfaces

and ensures more ground contact for the tyre. The (shock) loads on you and your

SCOTT bike are noticeably reduced. Suspension forks differ in their types of spring

elements and damping. Suspension forks normally work with air spring elements

or with coil springs.

Damping is usually done by oil. To work perfectly, the fork has to be adjusted to the

weight of the rider, the sitting posture and the intended use (b). Be sure to have

this adjustment carried out by your SCOTT dealer at the time of delivery. For more

information see the chapter “Front suspension” in your detailed SCOTT owner’s

manual as well as in the manuals of the suspension fork manufacturer on the

enclosed SCOTT info CD.

•WARNING: The suspension fork should be set up and adjusted in a way that

it does not reach the end of its travel, i.e. bottom out, unless in extreme cases (c).

A spring rate which is too soft (air pressure is too low) can usually be heard or felt

as a “clunk” type noise. This noise is caused by the sudden complete compression

of the suspension fork as it reaches bottom out. If the suspension fork frequently

reaches bottom out, it will sustain damage over time, and so will the frame.

•WARNING: A too strong damping of the suspension fork can result in a

sluggish rebound movement with a suspension fork that will not recover when

exposed to a quick series of impacts. Risk of falling!

•WARNING: Do not turn any bolt on your suspension fork, particularly not

with tools, in the vague hope of adjusting it somehow. You could be loosening

the fastening mechanism, thus provoking an accident. All manufacturers

normally mark adjustment devices with a scale or with “+” (for stronger

damping/harder suspension) and “-” signs.
