Condition 3 SCOTT Bikes
In general, SCOTT condition 3 bicycles (c-e) are mountain bike hardtails and
full-suspension bikes with short suspension travel. They are used, for example, for
sports and competition rides on trails of moderate technical demands (f).
SCOTT condition 3 bikes are designed for use on rough paths, uneven, unpaved
roads as well as in difficult terrain and on undeveloped paths. Their use requires
technical riding skills. Sporadic jumps/drops may be performed up to a height of
60cm.
In addition, they are intended for cross-country use and races on easy or interme-
diate to aggressive surfaces (e.g. hilly with small obstacles, such as roots, rocks,
loose and hard surfaces as well as dents). However, less experienced riders may
lack the proper technique when landing their jumps, which increases the forces
acting on the equipment, and thus the risk of damage and injuries. SCOTT recom-
mends that you train your skills in a riding technique course.
If necessary, ask your SCOTT dealer to inspect your SCOTT bike at shorter inter-
vals than according to the SCOTT service and maintenance schedule.
These wheels or bikes are, however, not suitable for use on blocked terrain, tricks,
stair riding, etc., training and competitive use in the categories freeride, dirt, down-
hill as well as hardest freeriding, extreme downhill, dirt jump, slope style or very
aggressive or extreme riding.
Due to their design and fittings, SCOTT condition 3 bikes are generally not intend-
ed to be used on public roads. If you want to use them on public roads, these bikes
must be fitted with the prescribed equipment (lighting system, bell). Observe the
traffic rules when riding on public roads. You find more information in the chapter
“Legal requirements for riding on public roads” in the translation of your detailed
original SCOTT operating instructions “MTB and MTB-Pedelec” on the SCOTT web
page.
You find details as to the maximum permissible overall weight on the sticker on
the frame of your SCOTT bike and in the chapter “Notes on the maximum per-
missible overall weight”. Under certain circumstances the permissible maximum
weight can be further limited by the component manufacturers’ recommendations
for use.
