Scott Voltage FR 710 review

Nov 2015 · Rob Weaver

We’re big fans of the aggressive geometry and predictable suspension, though a lighter build would increase versatility. Buy if you're more about the downs than the ups and want a playful little brute of a bike that'll suck up anything you can throw at it

Highs
  • Reams of tweakability, including quickfire suspension travel changes, ugly terrain lights it on fire

Lows
  • Hefty build means climbing is a bit of a chore – though it will winch its way up most things if you've got the brawn
