SCOTT DIRT AND FREERIDE BIKES
Dirt biking and freeriding are among the most challenging uses that you can
perform with your SCOTT bike. Jumps, riding the stairs, downhill races and
sharp bends in difficult or extremely rough terrain etc. are an undue stress for
rider and material.
That means that these activities require a highly durable SCOTT bike with
full-suspension, if necessary. A cross-country, tour or marathon mountain bike
would fail and result in a severe accident! Ask your SCOTT dealer for bikes
which are suitable for the sport you want to do.
Even though the above-mentioned SCOTT dirt (c+d) and freeride bikes (e+f)
are built for sport cycling and hard use, their resistance to stress is limited.
In particular the following manoeuvres can cause undue stress for the material
and result in a failure:
- Incorrect jumps on sharp edges, jumps with a landing on the front wheel, too
short jumps or tricks that are not completed before the landing
- Landing on the counter slope or between two slopes; on flat terrain jumps
with rotation crossways to the track or with hands not on the handlebars/feet
off the pedals
Be sure to also avoid the following manoeuvres, as they would put too much
stress on the material resulting in premature wear or failure:
- Undue stress for the chain by riding with too low chain tension (in the case of
single speed)
- Inappropriate grinding (sliding on chain or chainring or sliding on frame and
drop-outs)
- Undue stress for the wheels by riding with too low air pressure
- Undue stress for the frame and bike parts by riding with too soft suspension

Bar ends
Bar ends (a) give you additional ways of gripping the handlebars. They are
usually fixed in a position that gives the rider a comfortable grip when pedalling
out of the saddle. The bar ends are then almost parallel to the ground or tilted
slightly upwards (by about 25°).
Release the bolts, which are usually located on the underside of the bar ends
(b), by one to two complete turns. Turn the bar ends to the desired position
making sure the angle is the same on both sides. Retighten the bolts to the
required torque. Check whether the bar ends are firmly fixed by trying to turn
them out of position.
DANGER!
G
Never fix bar ends in vertical position or with their ends pointing rearwards
as this would increase the risk of injury in the event of an accident.
DANGER!
G
Be aware that the distance you need to stop your bike increases, when you
are riding with your hands on handlebars with bar ends. The brake levers
are not always within easy reach.
CAUTION!
A
If you want to mount bar ends to the aluminium or carbon handlebars of
your SCOTT bike, inform yourself in advance whether these components
are permitted on your SCOTT bike. If necessary, contact your SCOTT dealer
