Lenzerheide will live a historic moment with Nino Schurter’s last participation in a World Cup. The Swiss, considered the best biker of all time, will say goodbye there, in his home and surrounded by his fans, and he will also do it with a very special bike. This SCOTT Spark RC X N1NO Special Edition is a true “throne on wheels”.
Nino Schurter has enjoyed many unique customizations on his SCOTT Spark throughout his career, and the brand wanted to pay tribute to him once again with a unique and extremely personalized design. Yanick Gyger, Schurter’s mechanic, described this Spark as follows: “Having the honor of assembling this special edition of Nino for his last World Cup in Lenzerheide was an unforgettable moment for me. Honestly, it is one of the best designs I have ever put together.”
On the seat tube you can read: Greatest Of All Time, undoubtedly Nino is the XCO GOAT
The chain links have been personalized and you can read N1NO and GOAT among other inscriptions, a true work of craftsmanship
The cranks and the pulley cage have been painted red to match the rest of the frame
The HMX SL carbon frame is inspired by Swiss colors and features a spectacular design in white and red with splashes of paint symbolizing speed and the constant struggle for victory. The frame is full of details, with areas in “washed red” that reveal what lies beneath, and, of course, the rainbow stripes that Schurter has worn more than any other cyclist. On the seat tube, an inscription sums it all up: Greatest Of All Time.
Subtle paint details are all over the frame
Red spokes and detail on the rims in the same color
In addition, a collage of some of the milestones of his career is displayed on the rear shock, while components from SRAM, RockShox, Syncros, HT, and MAXXIS complete an extremely customized setup. For example, the SRAM cranks are completely red and on the chain, each link reads Nino and GOAT. A configuration undoubtedly worthy of the legend.
The components have also been customized, such as the wheels with red details and spokes for the rear and white for the front, or the SRAM Motive Ultimate brakes completely white with a rainbow stripe on the levers and calipers.
