Condition 4 SCOTT Bikes
In general, SCOTT condition 4 bikes (c-e) are full-suspension mountain and trail
bikes with medium suspension travel. They are used, for example, for sports and
competition rides on trails of very challenging technical demands.
SCOTT condition 4 bikes are designed for use on rough paths, uneven, unpaved
roads as well as in difficult, rough and partly blocked terrain and on undeveloped
paths. Their use requires technical riding skills. Jumps/drops may be performed up
to a height of 120cm.
In addition, they are intended for downhill rides on unpaved paths at speeds of less
than 40kmh (24.8mph). But especially inexperienced riders doing jumps may land
inappropriately, thus increasing significantly the forces acting on them which may
result in damage and injuries. SCOTT recommends that you train your skills in a
riding technique course.
If necessary, ask your SCOTT dealer to inspect your SCOTT bike at shorter intervals
than according to the SCOTT service and maintenance schedule.
