Slack, longer, and a whole lot more capable. Scott’s new Spark RC is more than just a race bike.
Jun 2026 · Seb Stott
The new Spark includes a list of features and design decisions not often seen on uncompromising race bikes.
Unique horizontal shock in downtube saves weight and lowers center of gravity.
Straight seat tube allows long dropper posts (150mm all sizes, 200mm larger frames).
Two bottle mounts with external threads.
In-frame storage with 'save the day kit' (removable for racing).
Frame is approximately 200g lighter than previous generation.
Flex-pivot rear suspension is sensitive and keeps wheel planted.
Progressive leverage ratio aids pedaling support.
Slack head angle options (65.4°/65.9°/66.4°) with adjustable headset cups.
Integrated magnetic covers and clean cable routing.
Quiet frame despite complicated cabling.
Low stack height may cause aggressive riding position with heavy hands.
Full Flight Attendant system is overwhelming to set up initially.
Frame weight is competitive but not the lightest (Specialized Epic slightly lighter).

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.
Apr 2023 · Tom Law
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
