GEOMETRY/TECHNICAL DATA GENIUS LT The new Genius LT is the result of 2 years of research and development for one of the lightest all-mountain bike frame set available on the market, hitting the scale at below 2550grams (5.60lbs) including the frame, FOX Nude/FOX Float CTD shock and the unique TWINLOC XL remote control. Travel The combination of an optimized kinematics with an extraordinary suspension technology closes the gap between very light dual suspension trail bikes (e.g.
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.
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) ASSEMBLY OF THE REMOTE CABLE IMPORTANT: Please make sure the lockout of SRAM/RockShox or FOX fork is activated after transport correctly.
NUDE 2 SHOCK AND TWINLOC REMOTE CONTROL LEVER Parts List In the drawing of the shock and remote lever, shown below, you will see the parts indicated with numbers which will be used in the manual for the adjustment and setup.
BASIC SET-UP OF THE TWINLOC REMOTE CONTROL OF FOX NUDE SHOCK 1. loosen the cable fixing screw (S7) by turning it counter clockwise with a 2mm allen key. To ensure perfect function of the FOX Nude shock it is very important to follow the steps shown below exactly. On Genius LT Carbon frames you will find an internal cable routing. Push the inner cable first through the remote lever in the upper cable routing of the lever and then through the cable housing as shown below inside the toptube.
5. cut the cable approx. 20mm away from the remote wheel. Fix it by squeezing it with pliers. 4. Check that the handlebar lever is in the traction position. Refer to the diagram below. 6. push a cable end-cap on the cable until it touches the end of the cable. Fix it by squeezing it with pliers. ENGLISH GENIUS LT 3. tighten the cable and fix the cablefixing screw (S7) by turning it clockwise with a 2mm allen key and a max. tightening torque of 1.6Nm. 14 BIKE OWNER’S MANUAL scott-sports.
BASIC SET-UP OF THE TWINLOC REMOTE CONTROL OF FOX CTD SHOCK SET-UP GENIUS WITH FOX NUDE OR FOX CTD SHOCK The assembly of the remote cable and the setup of the FOX CTD rear shock is very similar to the abovementioned assembly and setup of the FOX Nude. The Set-Up of the FOX Nude or FOX CTD Shock can be easy done within a few minutes.
SET-UP OF REBOUND FOX NUDE OR FOX CTD SHOCK SAG The SAG should be 18mm on the shock piston. To check the adjustment, please follow as shown below: 1. sit on the bike, put your feet on the pedal 2. put your feet back on the ground and stand over the bike without bouncing the bike during this action “Rebound” describes the speed the shock comes back to its original length after absorbing an obstacle. By using the rebound adjuster knob (S4) you can adjust the rebound step by step. 3.
Please refer to the following instruction: Ride your bike off a pavement (remain in the saddle) and check how many times it bounces. -- If it bounces 1-2 times, the set up is good. -- If it bounces more than 3 times the rebound is too fast. Turn the knob 1-2 “clicks” clockwise -- If it does not bounce the rebound is too slow. Turn the knob 1-2 “clicks” counter clockwise.
HEADSET OPTIONS BOTTOM BRACKET (BB) ON GENIUS LT Genius LT features a tapered headset and fork steerer system to match with semi-integrated headsets of the “50-61”mm range with ID of Headtube of 44.0mm on top and 54.9mm on the lower end.
