Spark 940 Bike – 2024

When you think of the perfect mountain bike, what comes to mind? For Scott, it’s the Spark 940. Why, you ask? Well, beyond the fact that it is fast, lightweight and ultra capable on all sorts of terrain, it’s just good lookin’. Short-travel trail bike? "Downcountry" rig? Occasional race bike? Whatever, call it what you want to call it. All they know is that this is one phenomenal mountain bike

Features

• Evo-Lap Technology – Thanks to extensive computer modeling, Scott optimized the carbon layers in all the parts of their frames. When the parts were bonded together in the first prototypes, the result was a super light and compact frame without sacrificing the stiffness, comfort or impact resistance
• Adjustable Head Angle – With the new Spark, you can adjust the head angle by .6 degrees slacker or steeper. This can be done without cutting cables or bleeding brakes. All you must do is disassemble the bar, rotate the headset cups 180 degrees, and reassemble
• Easy Shock Access – Accessing the shock via the bottom bracket area is facilitated through a hatch. This makes it easy to adjust rebound, compression, shock pressure, and for installing or replacing the cable for Scott’s TwinLoc Suspension System
• Patented Integrated Suspension Technology – Integrated into the frame of the bike, the rear shock is protected from dirt and debris, and the bike’s center of gravity is lowered for better handling and a more stable ride.
• Rear Axle Tool – Featuring a T25, T30 and a 6 allen key all in one, with these three options you can adjust all pivot hardware and nearly everything else there is to adjust on the bicycle
• Single Pivot Suspension Layout – The Spark’s suspension layout has a very specific and proven kinematic and less unsprung mass. Using a flex pivot in the seat stay is an ideal solution for bikes in this travel range. This allows Scott to keep a very lightweight system while still ensuring optimal suspension performance
• Weight – 29.76 lbs
