Expect to explain that 'No, it's not an E-bike' to lots of people –especially when they see how fast this piece of slick carbon sculpture climbs.
The Spark stands out for its clever versatility.
The suspension of the Spark generates huge amounts of traction, swallowing up brake bumps and root carpets almost unnoticed.

Custom beautification mad man Dangerholm takes sets his sights on the Scott Spark RC and reimagines it in Rosso Corsa elegance.

I had been wanting this super cool style of aluminium link housing since forever, and this little thing is what finally ignited the spark (pun intended) to tear the bike down one last time.

Now in their fourth iteration, the 2022 Spark RC and Spark 900 lines have continued their cross-country heritage on racetracks, blending modern technology and design to suit all levels of riders.

A great frame that's held back by some below-par spec choices. It’s not the best value either
Great geometry for fast-paced trail riding
Super-smooth suspension
Well balanced when airborne
Clean frame design
TwinLoc lever awkward to use
Suspension bobs under power when left open
Brakes and rotors need upgrade
Front tyre lacks bite
Drivetrain isn’t as good as we’d expect for the price
Aug 2022 · Guy Kesteven
Is the 910 version of Scott’s racer the perfect XC/Trail crossover? Guy Kesteven has been hitting every sort of track and challenge on it to find out who will love it and who won’t
Super sleek, stiff and light frame
Low overall bike weight
Excellent Fox 34 and Shimano XT trail spec
Unique Scott multi-mode suspension
Well priced for the tech
Lots of levers and clattery cables
Front/rear suspension balance is slightly off
Bar is a wonky shape
Suspension creaks after a while

With an eye-catching integrated shock design, three-position suspension lockout, and 130mm fork, the Spark is a unique beast intended to conquer any trail.

Which bike to pick out of the Scott Spark RC and the regular Spark? We go through the differences and similarities, and how we adapted our Spark 910 to turn it into one of the best race bikes we've ever tested. Get the lowdown in our Scott Spark RC review.
Ridiculously plush for an XC race bike
Outstanding descending control
Traction Control mode offers instantaneous climbing boost
Stealthy frame design hides shock from the elements
Adjustable geometry widens versatility
If you don't like suspension remotes, the Spark isn't for you
Headset cable routing adds maintenance frustration
Not the quietest bike
Not the lightest XC frame
