SCOTT Genius 2018 in two wheel sizes

Media Days SCOTT END 2 1140x760
The SCOTT Genius 700 Ultimate is the apex of the latest line-up and tips the scales at just 11.7 kg.

SCOTT fans had to practice patience for an updated Genius, but it finally dropped in mid-June. Sporting familiar cues found on last year’s Spark release, the new SCOTT Genius 2018 comes with a plush 150 mm front and rear travel. All of the details and our First Ride impressions can be found in our First Ride Review of the SCOTT Genius 2018.
