The direct and straight cable system on all our full
suspension models allows Smart Cable Routing which is
very resistant against water and dirt.
To change the cables simply unscrew the three cable
brackets on the downtube. [2]
Please note:
Install the washers in between brackets and frame,
otherwise the cables can be squeezed and in worst case
a failure of rear brake or derailleur can occur! [3]
Mechanics hint:
The outer housing of the cables can also be fixed on
the bottle cage with cable fixers, the two brackets
below the cage are not needed anymore. [4]
At SCOTT we are using since 1999 the new location of
the pivot, which has moved forward. This enables the
rider to go uphill standing on the pedals without loosing
power and having optimum grip on the ground.[1]
This pivot was designed at SCOTT using complex com-
puter simulations.
We were confirmed by different and indepenent studies
of bicycling magazines and universities that we really
uncoupled drivetrain and suspension, which causes an
improved energy output of approximately 20%.
The brake away and spring rate remains unchanged and
can be adjusted to style and preference of the rider
itself.

The models of the G-Zero Endurance/Sportwoman
Series are equipped with an adjustable BB-height.
When mounting the rearshock in the upper position, you
will lower the BB 10mm and will reduce the travel to ca.
85mm.
This option is mostly made for CC-racers who want a
point of gravity of the bike.
If the shock is mounted to the lower position you will
get the BB-height known from Strikes from 2001 or you
will rise up the BB-height in comparison to the second
option for 10 mm. Travel will be in this position 100mm.
This position will be preferred in rough terrain.
djustable BB-height: Rear Shock Set Up :
The basic set up of air rear shock is easy and can be
done within few minutes.
You only need:
- a shock pump with a scale up to 20 bars/300 psi
- the SAG-Boy on the back of this manual
1. Sit on the bike, put your feet on the pedal
2. Check if the shock bolts correspond to the SAG-
Boy. If you don’t have the SAG-Boy on hand, the
difference between the two bolts should be
154mm. (Length of shock 165mm,SAG 11mm)
3. Is the difference in between the two bolts more
than 154mm the pressure inside the positive
chamber is too high. Is the difference less than
154mm the pressure inside the positive chamber
is too low. Change the pressure using the shock
pump step by step until you reach the optimum
SAG.
All air shocks should be adjusted according to the
manual of the rear shock producer taking account of
the SAG mentioned above.
Please note:
The bolts of the rear shock should be tightened
with max. 8 Nm after a disassembly of the shock,
otherwise the rear shock can be damaged.

For the set up of the front fork please use the fork spe-
cific manual attached to the bike .
Front Fork Set Up: Pivot Maintenance:
The pivot and bearings on SCOTT G-Zero Endurance/Sports-
woman are extremely easy to maintain.
An external treatment with a grease sprayafter every
bike wash is all you have to do. We do not recommend
heavy grease sprays since these will leave a film on the
parts which is difficult to remove. We recommend the
same for the chain also.
If you have to change the bearings you can order them
included to a service kit at your local SCOTT dealer with
parts number 15.1.860.101.0.000. In addition you can buy
them at a hardware store with international parts number
3803.2 RS.
In case of a change of the bearings or of the rear swin-
garm you should contact your local SCOTT dealer there-
fore you need special tools for disassembly and assembly.

The SCOTT Full suspension Bikes were made using the
most innovative production and quality methods.
Such an outstanding product therefore needs to be
checked up once a year by a SCOTT expert with the help
of the enclosed maintenance schedule.
Doing so you will always have maximum performance
and security while riding.
A fulfilled maintenance schedule will allow you to double
your warranty of the frame and swingarm on your SCOTT
Full suspension Bike from 2 up to 4 years.
In opposition to other brads SCOTT gives you warranty
even if you are taking part in races or marathons. Our
bikes are made by Bikers to other Bikers. Nevertheless,
damages caused by falls or accidents are not taken into
account. Wear and tear is not taken into account by the
warranty either.
For all the «non-SCOTT» components, the warranty of
the producer remains valid.
Once the check up is made, it is reported in the mainte-
nance schedule, which will then enable you to claim
your warranty extension.
The owner of the bike is responsible for the costs of
the service.
