Introducing the all-new
SCOTT Spark RC
The New Spark RC is one of the lightest new generation 120mm XC race bikes available while at the same time including performance enhancing features and capabilities. Lighter, faster, and more capable than ever, without compromise.
The Scott Spark RC has always stood for race-winning performance and has pushed further than ever, delivering a bike that doesn't ask you to choose between light weight, ride dynamics, and seamless performance. You get all three.
Three uncompromising principles
The new Scott Spark RC is built around three uncompromising principles, each shaping every aspect of its design and performance:
-
Light Weight
Light weight design is efficiency without compromise. Every gram serves a purpose, converting rider input into pure forward momentum while maintaining the strength, stiffness, and reliability needed to perform at the highest level. HMX-SL frame from just 1427g, among the lightest 120mm bikes available.
-
Ride Dynamics
Performance is about more than outright speed, it’s about how the bike responds when it matters most. Refined suspension kinematics, race-proven geometry, and precise handling work together to deliver confidence, control, and efficiency, helping you turn every effort into a competitive advantage.
-
Seamless Performance
Simplicity where it counts. From setup to service, every detail is designed to be intuitive and efficient. Smart integration, streamlined maintenance, lightweight cable routing, quick suspension access, and a protected shock work together to deliver reliable, race-ready performance- ride after ride.
What's New in Spark RC
- Gen5 HMX-SL carbon frame - up to 100g race-day strip-down potential
- Syncros Silverton CF1 carbon wheelset at ~1180g - 75g lighter than its predecessor
- RockShox Flight Attendant electronic suspension on top models - fully automatic, real-time response
- Syncros iC-M100-SL cockpit at just 210g, with stem lengths from 50–80mm
- Unlimited dropper insertion - supports up to 200mm on larger frame sizes
Scott TwinLoc - 3 Bikes in One
The Scott TwinLoc is a proprietary suspension control system featured on Spark RC models that don't have electronic (Flight Attendant) suspension.
It's described as giving riders 3 suspension modes in one lever, hence "3 bikes in one", allowing the rider to adapt the suspension to the terrain on the fly without stopping.
The three modes are Lockout, Pedal (a firmer, pedalling-efficient mode), and Descend (fully open), which is why the rear shock spec on those models is listed as "3P Lockout-Pedal-Descend".
The TwinLoc lever also controls the dropper post on compatible models, so one lever manages both suspension and saddle height simultaneously.
Geometry that adapts to you
The Spark RC's geometry is modern and race-inspired, with a reach of 455mm and a low stack of 591mm on size medium. Built-in head angle adjustability of ±0.5° lets riders dial in their setup to suit the terrain, from tight XC laps to more technical descents without any additional parts.
A steering stopper also protects the frame and cables in the event of a crash or during transport, and can be removed and reinstalled on-site using the integrated frame tool.
All frame sizes accommodate at least a 150mm dropper post, with larger sizes supporting up to 200mm travel, keeping riders in control on the most technical descents. Every frame also fits two full-size water bottles, including on size small.
