martinsnyman Posted January 21, 2015 Posted January 21, 2015 I would post mine, but its Scott nuffing to do wiff you!
MTB-BFK Posted January 21, 2015 Posted January 21, 2015 I'm about to throw my Scott Spark off a low pavement - the BLERRY kraaking, squeaking and groaning of the Spark is enough to drive you mal. There have been many threads related to this, BB bearing this, pedals that, pivot lube what what - tried the whole list, but na aah, still creaks and kraaks. P1S S poor design flaw that makes me sad because I really dig the bike
martinsnyman Posted January 21, 2015 Posted January 21, 2015 My Spark 940 also creeeeeeeeeeking, my mates does not and have never made a sound - only difference 8s he has xt pedals and I have shimano m520's, has to be the pedals in my case

P1S S poor design flaw that makes me sad because I really dig the bikeI have a friend who bought the same bike (Scott Spark 950 2013 model) December 2012 and he's had endless problems with it. I on the other hand haven't even serviced the BB, just wash bike, clean and lube chain and ride and probably done more riding than him. So I don't know if one can say it's a problem with the Spark range, you might just have a bike that's not as well made?

Just look and see how many threads on the hub for confirmation. I am actually not sure what to do about this, because it can drive you nuts

NixM Posted January 21, 2015 Posted January 21, 2015 Anyone want to adopt this Scott, sitting at animal cruelty league
