Scott Genius 740 27.5 Bike 2014 Detail
REI.com Features & Description
- The Genius 27.5 mountain bike is quicker and lighter than 29ers, but offers the same benefits of large-diameter wheels—more speed and better traction
- Compared to 26 in. wheels, larger-diameter wheels roll over obstacles more easily so you won't stall going uphill over roots and loose soil
- Hydroformed and butted 6061 aluminum frame is lightweight and sturdy; geometry has been fine-tuned to maximize suspension performance
- Fox 32 Float 29 Evolution CTD Air suspension fork has 150mm of air-sprung travel; Fox Float CTD rear shock has a progressive damping curve and excellent sensitivity
- TwinLoc system provides remote, bar-top control of suspension travel and lockout, letting you customize performance on the fly
- 3 TwinLoc settings supply full travel front and rear, Traction mode (full travel on fork with limited rear suspension), and lockout for both front and rear
- Rear shock linkage chip lets you adjust head tube angle by 0.4° to meet your geometry preferences; oversize bearings help keep suspension stiff and responsive
- Tapered head tube and 15mm front quick-release axle stiffen up the front end for enhanced strength and handling precision
- 3x10 Shimano drivetrain features an XT Shadow rear derailleur along with Deore shifters and front derailleur for quick, efficient and precise performance
- Shimano Deore hydraulic disc brakes use a 180mm rotor up front and a 160mm rotor in back to facilitate responsive, progressive braking
- Schwalbe Nobby Nic Performance folding tires feature lightweight Kevlar® beads and dual compound composition for solid traction and handling
- Interchangeable dropout system (IDS-SL) lets you switch between rear axle standards (142x12mm, 135x12mm and 135x10mm QR) to further tune and enhance performance
