Shock Technology - Scott Genius LT Owner's Manual

SHOCK TECHNOLOGY

The heart of the TC-System is the FOX Nude Shock made by FOX, offering three
functions which make this system possible.
The TWINLOC remote control lever is the evolution of the already outstanding
TRACLOC system of SCOTT.
While TRACLOC allowed only the change on the SCOTT TC rear shocks between the
SCOTT patented Climb, traction and descent mode on the fly from the handlebar, the
TWINLOC allows also the remote control of the front fork to shift between lock-out
and open mode at the same time when you change the modes on the SCOTT rear
shox.
In combination with FOX 34 CTD forks it is also possible to have a platform mode on
the fork.
The 3 modes of CTCD in combination with FOX Nude are:
- Climb Mode : climb rear, climb front
- Traction Mode: traction mode rear (incl. Geometry change and reduced travel),
platform mode front
- Descent Mode: full travel rear (Descent), full travel front
The 3 modes of CTD in combination with the FOX CTD shock are:
- Climb Mode : climb rear, climb front
- Ride Mode: platform(Ride) mode rear, platform mode front
- Descent Mode: full travel rear (Descent), full travel front
Therefore SCOTT offers 2 different TWINLOC levers with following fork/rear shock
combinations:
- FOX Nude with different rolls for FOX CTD fork and RockShox DNA 3 fork (SCOTT
Article number: 230097)
- FOX CTD with different rolls for FOX CTD fork and RockShox DNA 3 fork (SCOTT
Article number: 230098)
Please note that the FOX CTD rear shock does not offer a traction mode, but a
platform mode. In contrary to FOX Nude the air-chamber volume of the positive
chamber remains the same throughout the different modes
IMPORTANT:
You can only assemble the TWINLOC remote lever in "left side upward position" on
the handlebar.

BIKE OWNER'S MANUAL
You have 3 positions of the TWINLOC remote lever.
1. CLIMB MODE: the shock is nearly locked, climbing on asphalt roads is now
possible without any power loss. Simultaneous a blow-off-system prevents the
shock being damaged in case the rider did not open the system while crossing
obstacles.
2. TRACTION/Ride MODE:
For Traction: by reducing the internal chamber volume inside the shock the travel
of the shock will be reduced to around 80% (approx. 136mm) the characteristic
of the air spring gets harder, the SAG is shorter and the geometry steeper. This
results in climbing without "bobbing" and offers still optimum traction of the rear
wheel.
For Ride: by adding a platform on the compression damping system the shock will
not bounce while standing on the pedals
3. DESCENT MODE: full travel of 170mm
You will find the following positions on the remote lever:
For the assembly of the remote control of the front fork lock-out 2 different
cable rolls which are changeable are existing.
The different roll for the pull of the fork remote cable can be changed within
few minutes to adapt the lever to your fork model/brand.
You will see on the downside of the roll the indication of the fork brand or the
fork model.
