PappaWatTrap Posted August 6, 2020 Posted August 6, 2020 Here and there you see the new 2021 Scott Sparks, I see Cycle lab are selling them. But I can't seem to find it on Scott's own website, no press releases or anything. Does anyone know what's going on?
hansolo Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 It looks like the same frame as the current one so no massive media launches etc. Model years are becoming really weird, we have 4 months left of the year and 2021 models start selling.

Scott have been releasing there "next year's" bikes in August for a few years already. Which happens to be later than many other brands .... slickjay007 1

Bondinator Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 I was keen on waiting for the 2021 900 RC pro but after seeing those prices on the CL website for pretty much exactly the same specs as the 2020 model, I think I will be riding my current bike into the ground...This exchange rate is having us.

Bondinator Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 Let me guess......they take after the Spez crew......."the 2021 version is way more expensive but it is stiffer and lighter than the 2020 version". Don't buy the 2021 version....wait for the 2022 version, it will be stiffer and lighter than the 2021 version. Don't buy 2022 version, wait for the 2023 version, it will be lighter and stiffer than the 2022 version. Don't buy the 2023 version, wait for the 2024 version it will be lighter and stiffer than than the 2023 version.From what I can see on the RC pro, they changed the paint and switched the race face carbon crank with XTR. The frame is still the same.... But then again, CL jumped the gun on Scott with this one, so there could be something else that I cant see that contributes to the R34k price difference.
PappaWatTrap Posted August 7, 2020 Author Posted August 7, 2020 I have noticed however that they increased the travel on the Spark to 130mm and on the RC to 110mm travel Dexter-morgan 1
