Scott Aspect 930 review - MBR

Jul 2019 · Paul Burwell

At the heart of the Scott Aspect 930 is a lightweight aluminium frame making this one of the lightest bikes in the Sub-£750 Hardtail of the Year test.

Highs
  • Stiff crankset, excellent drivetrain

Lows
  • Cramped cockpit and jacked up geometry, tyres lack bite

Scott Aspect 720 review

Dec 2015 · Guy Kesteven

A naturally punchy and precise-feeling ride with reasonable control but adequate, not amazing, spec for the price. Buy if you want a solid, precise and well-controlled ride, and don't mind a little extra heft

Highs
  • Decent-shaped cockpit

  • Punchy delivery and fast-rolling tyres aid speed

  • 32mm fork with rebound adjustment and lockout

Lows
  • Fork and frame are on the firm side

  • High overall and wheel weight

  • Cranks are a letdown
