Operation Manual

•
IMPORTANT!
After a dismantlement of the rear shock, both fixing bolts should be tightened with a
tightening torque of 10Nm/88in-lbs.
If this is not done correctly the rear shock can be damaged.
•
SET-UP OF OTHER SHOCK MODELS
SCOTT strongly recommends using only the FOX Nude (FOX CTD shock) with the
Genius LT bike, as we designed both parts for a perfect matching combination with a linear
suspension rate.
Also on those shock models the SAG should be 18mm.
Other Shock Models on Genius LT
If you want to use a different rear shock model than the one originally on the bike, please
make sure that the shock will not in any position hit the frame and cause a damage to
the frame.
Please follow the instruction below:
- Please make sure that the rear shock or its accessory parts do not touch the frame when
mounting or suspending.
- For doing so release the air/remove the coil, install the shock and compress the shock
completely.
- If the shock touches the frame while doing so, do not use this shock in order to avoid
damage to frame, swingarm or shock.
•
SET-UP OF REBOUND FOX NUDE OR FOX CTD SHOCK
“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.
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.
•
IMPORTANT!
Note that you have to mount the FOX
Nude Shock always as shown below.
Mounting the rear shock in a different
position can cause severe damage to
the frame, the linkage levers and the
rear shock.
Same for the FOX CTD on some of the
Genius LT models.
