Scott have collaborated with FOX suspension to offer a new lightweight 'Custom-tuned' rear shock to work in harmony with the full suspension frame design and geometry.
This new FOX shock is goes by the name of the - Nude. With custom Scott rebound damping and traction control.
Interestingly, Scott also allow the user 2 stages for the shock to operate. The quick chip on the rear linkage can be flipped to the riders liking, offering a low & high BB setting depending on the terrain - offering full control on the 2016 Scott electric bikes.
The E-Genius 720 Plus 2016 is offered up with full Shimano Deore hydraulic disc brakes & SLX 10 speed drivetrain to match, utilising a smooth wide ratio gear system for plenty of options both up and downhill.
Shimano hydraulic disc brakes are utilized for true stopping power and minimal maintenance.
These brakes are mounted on larger rotors for more braking performance over mixed terrain.
PLUS. What's this all about? The new revelation hitting the cycling industry by storm is the 27.5+ tyres. These bridge the gap between regular MTB's and Fat Bikes.
They offer a wider 3" tyre for ultimate traction and grip, without compromising on rolling resistance.
For 2016 the wheels are built using a Shimano Zee rear and Formula front hub. These are laced onto strong yet lightweight Syncros X23 alloy disc specific rims.
Scott have opted for the famous German Schwalbe Nobby Nic Evo tyres for a fast rolling trail pace with low rolling resistance and tight grip. Perfect for UK trail centers. The Evo line are dual density and these offer the resilient 'snake skin' side wall.
Don't forget these are extra wide and suck up a lot more of the bumps. Also due to the wider tyre and dual compound construction, these tyres offer superior levels of grip over standard width tyres without compromising rolling resistance.
Scott have specified the new 2016 FOX 34 Float Performance 140mm travel forks on the E-Genius 710, with thicker stanchions perfect for less flex on bigger hits.
The forks are completely air adjustable and offer the famous CTD (Climb, Trail & Descent) modes for superior trail adjustment.
This adjustment is normally adjusted down on the forks / shock itself, but Scott have an exclusive remote TwinLoc lever design mounted up on the handlebars.
