that is BOLD... nice.

And it still has a gazillion cables

quite keen to see how the 120mm suspension thing goes down in the Pro ranks. With modern shocks being pretty good at isolating Lo speed compression from the high speed stuff I'd expect that 120mm with two or three HS compression settings to be able to deliver the same lively feel that the 100mm travel units have delivered thus far.

Three's a crowd. Twinlock plus a dropper

Thought it was an e-bike when I first saw it.

Same here!

and no one has noticed the elephant in the room......

 

That BB is super low for a 120mm travel bike!!

Same BB height as other 100mm travel XCO race bikes.

pedal strikes are a thing

Scott bought Bold and have taken on their idea of an internal shock. It looks cool but is it as easy to work on as an exposed shock? 120 travel and low BB - they've gone upduro with this one.

And the long seat tube: https://enduro-mtb.com/en/new-scott-spark-900-tuned-axs-2022-review/

It is certainly not a downcountry bike.

It needs that longer seat tube  to allow for  the shock taking up space in the seat tube.
