Scott Spark 940 review

Apr 2023 · Tom Law

A great frame that's held back by some below-par spec choices. It’s not the best value either

Highs
  • Great geometry for fast-paced trail riding

  • Super-smooth suspension

  • Well balanced when airborne

  • Clean frame design

Lows
  • 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
