THE BIKE THAT THINKS FOR YOU.

The 2026 SCOTT Spark RC Team Issue is what happens when the World Cup tech trickles down into a bike a non-pro can actually own. The Gen5 HMF carbon chassis is the same one our pro team rides. The suspension is RockShox Flight Attendant - an electronically controlled fork and shock combo that reads the trail and adjusts in real time, faster and more accurately than any human ever could. Pair that with SRAM's wireless GX Eagle AXS Transmission, a built-in spindle power meter, and full Syncros carbon wheels and cockpit, and you have an 11.3kg race weapon that flat-out elevates the way you ride.

WHY WE PICKED THIS BUILD

- HMF Carbon Gen5 frame - genuine pro-team chassis with internal shock, UDH, BSA bottom bracket and Syncros Octopus Gen2 cable integration. Clean cockpit, easy servicing.

- 120mm front + 120mm rear travel - the modern XC sweet spot. Climbs like a hardtail, descends like a trail bike.

- RockShox Flight Attendant - the headline feature. Electronically controlled SID Ultimate fork and SIDLuxe Ultimate shock that automatically switch between Lockout, Pedal and Descend modes based on real-time trail input. You stop thinking about your suspension and just ride.

- SRAM GX Eagle AXS Transmission - wireless electronic 12-speed, hanger-less direct mount, 10-52T range. Crisp under load, bombproof in the rough.

- Integrated spindle power meter in the GX crankset - real wattage data, no aftermarket add-on, no pedal swap. Train and race off real numbers.

- SRAM Motive Bronze 4-piston brakes on SRAM HS2 rotors - top-tier XC stopping power. Welcome on Darwin's loose, technical descents.

- Syncros Silverton CF2 carbon wheels - 30mm internal carbon hoops, tubeless-ready, 24H. Stiff, fast-engaging, and a serious weight saving.

- Syncros IC-M100-SL2 HMF carbon integrated cockpit - cleaner front end, lighter, and the cable routing stays hidden.

- Maxxis Aspen 29x2.4" 120TPI EXO - the fastest XC race tyre going. Set up tubeless before pickup.

- Adjustable +/-0.5 degree head angle via the Syncros/Acros headset - dial it slack for rough stuff, steep for race day.

- Integrated Syncros dropper (150-225mm depending on size).

BLUE CARE - LIFETIME AFTERCARE, ONLY AT BLUE CYCLES
Most Darwin shops include a "free 6-week service" with a new bike. In reality, that's a bolt check - and once it's done, you're on your own.

We do it differently. Every bike from Blue Cycles comes with Blue Care*.

Blue Care is a LIFETIME Tune and Check, ON THE SPOT, in-between every major service, for the original owner. We check it on the spot, for as long as you own the bike.

We recommend a major service every 4-6 months. Blue Care covers everything in between. Forever. No bookings, no waiting, no invoice.

One free check-up vs. a lifetime of looking after your bike. That's the Blue Cycles difference.

*To keep Blue Care active, your bike needs to have had a paid major service with us within the previous 12 months. Original owner only, non-transferable.
