What makes it special
Thoughtful details. Big possibilities.
01Lightweight Design
The new Spark RC is one of the lightest new generation 120mm xc race bikes available while at the same time including performance enhancing features and capabilities. Lightweight efficiency defines the foundation of this frame. It is not a design driven by chasing the lowest possible number on a scale, but by the pursuit of meaningful weight distribution that directly translates into performance on the trail and racetrack. Every gram removed has a purpose, and every structural decision is measured against stiffness balance and long-term reliability.
02Ride Dynamics
Every detail of this bike’s design has been carefully engineered to maximize grip and traction, to maintain stability, and give riders the confidence to push harder and ride faster. Ride dynamics are about speed through control, it’s about grip and stability. The Spark RC frame is engineered as a complete system, where controlled flex enhances both grip, line control and efficiency. Lateral, vertical, and torsional flex are carefully tuned across the entire frame to work together seamlessly. The result is a bike that feels responsive, predictable, and fast on any terrain.
03Easy Access
Service and suspension setup are intuitive thanks to the accessible frame with top and rear frame covers. These magnetic and clipped covers provide easy access to the shock and interior, making workshop service fast and hassle-free. Both frame covers are sealed to protect the shock from dirt and water ingress. When running a split top cover, especially in combination with electronic shocks, dust and moisture entering the frame is unavoidable. To address this, a large drain hole in the frame efficiently evacuates any accumulated water. The shock shaft and seals remain fully protected, ensuring long-term consistent suspension performance in all conditions
With an updated frame design and enhanced riding dynamics, it’s engineered to create a seamless connection between rider and terrain. It's the evolution of our most successful cross-country racing platform—refined and ready for everything the trail demands, ensuring every pedal stroke and line choice is met with responsiveness and control. Developed in collaboration with our pro-team riders, the updated HMF carbon frame layup and geometry deliver the ideal balance of speed, agility, and stability across singletrack and throughout your powerband—turning your effort into results.
Precision and lightweight responsiveness extend into the suspension with a RockShox SID 120mm fork and SIDLux Select+ shock. This featherweight combination offers 3-position adjustability, giving you the ability to lock into your lines with confidence and stay planted through sections where the trail gets unpredictable. To deliver high performance without stretching your budget, the Spark RC Team is equipped with Shimano's Deore 12-speed drivetrain and MT6200 disc brakes—components chosen to keep you moving efficiently and reliably across every ride.
Performance also extends to practicality. Smart component integration and improved suspension compatibility mean less time in the workshop and more time pushing your limits on the trail—because the best rides are the ones where the bike disappears, and all that's left is the trail ahead.
