Thanks to the
TwinLoc suspension system the rider can effectively control the frame, fork and damper as a complete system. The additional control provides extra riding fun, especially downhill. TwinLoc allows a nuanced fine adjustment of the suspension. Furthermore, not only the compression damping can be changed, but also the spring characteristics to dynamically change the geometry of the bike.
Frame protection played an important role in the development of the Ransom. An
integrated protector under the bottom bracket protects this sensitive area. A specially developed chain stay and seat stay protector is implemented to ensure a smooth ride.
The
Trunnion standard provides metric damper size standards and improved mounting. The result is that the damper has more stroke at the same size. Trunnion also offers structural gains. Shorter dampers allow SCOTT to build very compact frames.
Furthermore the
29" wheels offer improved rolling characteristics. The big wheels are great for rolling over nasty roots and rocky sections, essentially making it easier to ride these conditions. Improved traction is also a key factor with the increased wheel diameter compared to 26" wheels as tire contact to the ground is larger.
If required, this model can be converted from 29" to 27.5" wheels. You don't have to change the fork, all you have to do is make a small adjustment to the damper, change your wheels and off you go. The damper adjustment ensures a similar bottom bracket height when changing wheels, so the handling remains almost identical for both wheel sizes.
