The pivot and bearings on SCOTT Nitrous 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
with parts number 15.1.860.402.0.000 or buy them with
international parts number 61803 2RS 17x26x5 in a
hardware store.
In case of a change of the bearings or of the rear swin
-
garm you should contact your local SCOTT dealer there
-
fore you need special tools for disassembly and assembly.
For the set up of the front fork please use the fork spe-
cific manual attached to the bike.
We recommend to use front forks with a travel between
150-200mm, as this will not influence too much the geo-
metry and handling of the bike.
The frame also can be used with a double bridge crown
(triple-clamp-design).
Please ask your Scott dealer to make sure that the fork
of your choice will not damage the frame.
The frame of Nitrous is originally equipped with a head
tube with a diameter to fit 1.5“ fork steerer tubes.
Some complete bikes are equipped with a reducer-
headset to use forks with a steerer diameter of 1 1/8“,
or the bikes have an alloy reducer from 1.5” to 1 1/8”
to fit for standard 1 1/8” headsets.
In case you want to use a fork with 1.5” standard steerer
you have to replace the original headset.
