Shimanos finned brake pads rattled away in the callipers, which can be partially solved by spreading out the pad springs, or by replacing the pads entirely with a non-finned variety. The Syncros carbon wheels arent super-light, but they are fast-rolling, urgent-feeling without being jarring, and come with wide, tyre-stabilising rims and a quick-engaging freehub. With its striking silhouette and space-efficient suspension design, the new Scott Genius is a remarkable feat of engineering. - Headset cable routing adds maintenance frustration Indeed with the extra ground clearance and the steep seat angle putting you in a comfortable pedalling position, there are very few trails the Genius cant winch its way up.

Thats a decent weight reduction, and Ive typically found a 100mm dropper to be fine for XC racing. The main interface will display the device description, processing speed, ID data and the device serial number. - Outstanding descending control Is it easy to stay in control in demanding terrain? And based on our long-term experience of testing the Scott Spark RC, the headset bearings should last a good while before they require replacing.
