Spare parts for your Scott bike
For buying spare parts we strongly recommend to visit your local Scott dealer as he
knows best which parts will fit to your bike and can help you to make your choice of
parts matching to your bike.
By doing so, you can avoid a combination of parts that might not match to each other.
Please only use original spare parts as only these can guarantee optimum function and
safety while riding.
This is extremely important on parts of the brake system, the tire and air tube.
Please note that Scott is not responsible for damages caused by not using original
spare parts.
Never use adapter solutions to fix or assemble brakes, seat/seatpost and stem/handle
bar!

Bicycle care

In order to keep the function and optic of the bike in good condition we recommend
periodical bicycle care.
Doing so keeps the value of the bike and helps to prevent from corrosion or other
damages:
- clean with soft brush, water and soft towel. Do not use high pressure cleaner,
otherwise bearings, color or decals can be damaged.
- Do not use aggressive cleaning additives
- Repair color damages at once
- Grease or oil all metal parts especially during winter use
Please use biodegradable bicycle cleaners and degreasers which are offered at your
local dealer.
