THE SAME BIKE NINO AND THE SCOTT-SRAM TEAM RACE.

The 2026 SCOTT Spark RC World Cup EVO isn't a step-up from the World Cup - it's a different bike where it matters most. The frame is HMX carbon, SCOTT's flagship top-tier layup, reserved for this single model in the Spark range. It runs Ceramic Speed bearings and titanium frame hardware from the factory. The wheels are Syncros Silverton CF1 - full carbon rims AND carbon spokes. The drivetrain is SRAM's halo XX SL Eagle AXS Transmission with a built-in power meter. Suspension is RockShox Flight Attendant - electronic, automatic, real-time. The dropper is RockShox Reverb AXS wireless. 10.5kg ready-to-ride. This is the bike the SCOTT-SRAM MTB Racing Team trusts at the World Cup, sold to you exactly as they ride it.

WHY THIS IS THE FLAGSHIP

- HMX Carbon Gen5 frame - SCOTT's top-tier carbon. Lighter, stiffer and more refined than the HMF used on every other Spark RC. Built in collaboration with the SCOTT-SRAM World Cup team.

- Ceramic Speed bearings and titanium hardware from the factory - the marginal-gains kit normally bought as a $1,500+ aftermarket upgrade, already in the bike.

- 120mm front + 120mm rear travel with race-tuned geometry - 65.9 degree head angle, 434mm chainstays, fast-handling 50-80mm stems. The same chassis that wins XCO World Cups.

- RockShox Flight Attendant - electronically controlled SID Ultimate fork and SIDLuxe Ultimate shock. Reads the trail and automatically switches between Lockout, Pedal and Descend modes in real time. Smarter than your thumb. Always.

- SRAM XX SL Eagle AXS Transmission - the lightest, top-tier wireless 12-speed group SRAM makes. Carbon crank arms, hanger-less direct mount, 10-52T, integrated spindle power meter for real wattage data straight out of the box.

- SRAM Motive Ultimate 4-piston brakes on SRAM CLX Centerline rotors - the highest-spec XC brake SRAM offers.

- Syncros Silverton CF1 wheels - carbon rims AND carbon spokes, 30mm internal, 24H, Ratchet freewheel, XD driver. A serious wheel upgrade most riders never get to.

- RockShox Reverb AXS wireless dropper - no cables, no clutter. The same dropper used on World Cup race day.

- Syncros IC-M100-SL2 HMF carbon integrated cockpit - cleaner, lighter, hidden cable routing.

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

- Adjustable +/-0.5 degree head angle via the Syncros/Acros headset - dial it for the course you're racing.

- Carbon-railed Syncros Celista Cut Out saddle.

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.
