REAR DISC BRAKE MOUNT
Genius can be used with 3 different disc rotor sizes on the rear brake.
The rear disc brake on Genius is Postmount (PM) Standard on the left seatstay and it is
possible to use disc rotors with 180, 185 and 200mm diameter.
Please note that for the
assembly of 185 and 200mm
rotors you might need
adapters/washers between
the PM port on the frame and
the brake calliper.
For 185mm rotor diameter
you will need 2 red anodized
spacers that can be ordered
via the Scott distribution with:
For the use of 200mm rotors please use for SRAM/Avid: “+20mm” adaptor
Shimano: F180PP2
FRONT FORK SET-UP/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 150mm (27.5”) and 130mm (29”), as
this will not influence the geometry and alter handling of the bike.
For details on the technical length of the recommended forks please refer to the Tech
Info Chart before mentioned.
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 swingarm you should contact your
local SCOTT dealer as you need special tools for disassembly and assembly.
ADJUSTMENT OF SEATPOST-HEIGHT
Important:
The seatpost has to be inserted into the seattube at a minimum of 100mm.
Never use another seatpost diameter than 31.6mm or try to use a shim/reducer
between seatpost and frame.
