The SCOTT Spark 900 EVO is a versatile, short-travel trail bike engineered for riders who demand speed, agility, and confidence across a wide range of terrain. Lightweight, capable, and race-ready, it blends cross-country efficiency with trail-smoothing comfort, making it equally suited for downcountry adventures, fast XC laps, or aggressive trail riding. Its refined geometry and advanced suspension system deliver control, precision, and confidence on every ride.

At the heart of the Spark 900 EVO is the HMF carbon frame with SCOTT’s Patented Integrated Suspension System. By optimizing shock placement with a trunnion mount and large seat tube pivot bearings, the system maximizes lateral stiffness, minimizes unsprung mass, and ensures efficient power transfer. The rear shock is fully protected from dirt and debris, maintaining consistent performance in all conditions, while easy access through the bottom bracket hatch allows quick adjustment of rebound, compression, and TwinLoc suspension settings.

The Spark’s single pivot suspension layout, paired with a flex pivot in the seatstay, offers precise, responsive performance on punchy, technical trails. Adjustable geometry allows riders to fine-tune the head angle by ±0.6° without cutting cables or bleeding brakes, giving a perfect balance between climbing efficiency and descending confidence. The Syncros Fraser iC cockpit integrates cables cleanly while providing multiple mount points for computers, lights, or cameras, keeping the front end minimalist and functional.

Equipped with the SRAM X0 Eagle AXS 12-speed drivetrain, the Spark 900 EVO delivers crisp wireless shifting and broad gear range for both technical climbs and fast trail sprints. The RockShox Pike Ultimate Flight Attendant 140mm fork paired with the RockShox SIDLuxe Ultimate Flight Attendant 120mm rear shock offers intelligent, automated suspension performance that adapts to terrain on the fly. Rolling on Syncros Silverton 1.0-30 CL wheels with Syncros hubs, the bike provides responsive acceleration, traction, and stability across all conditions.

Designed for riders seeking a lightweight, capable, and fully integrated short-travel mountain bike, the SCOTT Spark 900 EVO combines advanced carbon engineering, innovative suspension technology, and race-ready features to deliver a complete trail weapon.
