SPARE PARTS FOR YOUR SCOTT BIKE
When buying spare parts we strongly recommend visiting your local SCOTT dealer
as they will be best equipped with the knowledge, advice and specific parts that are
correct for your bike.
By doing so you can avoid using wrong or incorrectly installed parts that could
damage your bike or cause personal injuries. This is extremely important on parts of
the brake system, the tire and air tube.
Please only use original spare parts as only these can guarantee optimum function
and safety while riding. Please note that SCOTT is not responsible for damages
caused by not using original spare parts.
Never use adapter solutions on parts such as brakes, seat/seatpost, stem/handlebar!
BICYCLE CARE
We recommend periodical care in order to keep your bike functioning well and in
good condition.
Doing so maintains the value of the bike and helps to prevent corrosion or other
damages.
‑ Clean using a soft brush, water and soft towel. Do not use a high pressure cleaner,
otherwise bearings, colors or decals may become damaged
‑ Do not use aggressive cleaning substances
‑ Repair any damage to the paint immediately
‑ Grease or oil all metal parts especially during winter use
Please use biodegradable bicycle cleaners and degreasers which are available from
your local SCOTT dealer.
