FRONT FORK SET-UP/

NOTES

CHANGE OF FRONT FORK

For the set up of the front fork please use the fork specific manual attached to the bike.
We recommend using front forks with a travel of 140 - 150mm (518 - 525mm from mid of
axle - top of crown), as this will not influence the geometry and alter handling of the bike.

PIVOT MAINTENANCE

The pivot and bearings on SCOTT Genius are extremely easy to maintain.
An external treatment with a grease spray after every bike wash is all you have to do.
We do not recommend heavy grease sprays since these will leave a film on the parts
which is difficult to remove. We recommend the same for the chain also.
If you have to change the bearings you can order them included in a service kit at your
local SCOTT dealer or buy them with international parts number as shown above in the
specs list in a hardware store.
In case of a change of the bearings or of the rear swing arm you should contact your
local SCOTT dealer as you need special tools for disassembly and assembly.
