Scott Genius
Amongst the reviews is one from International MTB Magazine from 2015 (covering the 950 model) and
mentioning the value, characterised by a very balanced group of components which all did their job well.
This review also mentions the versatility: as it has been designed for all day use on varying terrain for the entry level mountain-biker and the
stability holding its momentum and control well, although some suspension adjustments are advisable for best performance.
Bike Radar has a review from August 2015 (covering the 750 model) and
detailing the ride, which is well balanced overall but quite tricky to adjust to cope with heavier terrain.
There are also good comments about the stability: in that the bike is quite stable at speed on relatively smooth trails and gives good confidence on descents and the
value for money which is only average, as there are a lot of other bikes with somewhat better specifications at the same sort of price.
This review gives a rating of 3.0/5.
Reviews include Singletracks from July 2015 (covering the 930 model) and
describing the versatility, while at the cross-country trail end of the bike ranges, it can tackle all sorts of terrain and can also be modified easily.
It also comments on the suspension: has excellent design accompanied by TwinLoc remote to control both front and rear shocks at the same time, plus the
upgrades could be made to the tyres and the forks to give more travel and a bit more grip.
Scott Genius LT
Amongst the reviews is one from Mountain Bike Rider from June 2015 (covering the 710 model) and
mentioning the travel, is designed to cope with very rough terrain and it does that really well.
This review also mentions the geometry: which also gives stability on the steepest unpreditable gradients and the
weight which for the price was somewhat disappointing in using quite a bit of energy to get the bike up to speed.
Freehub Magazine from 2014
comments on the versatility, as this bike can be used successfully as an all-mountain, trail or enduro machine.
Also the review mentions the learning curve: is pretty gentle with easy adjustments that can be made on the trail and in addition, the
components that all match each other in quality and performance, so there is no obvious weakness and plenty of strengths.
Overall this reviewer gives the bike a 5.0/5 rating.
Scott Genius Tuned
Bike Radar from Jan 2016 (covers the 700 Plus model) and
comments on the climbing traction, that is extremely high.
Also the review mentions the adaptable suspension: being easy to change between suspension modes and in addition, the
confident ride as the bike is very surefooted over all sorts of difficult terrain.
Overall this reviewer gives the bike a 4.0/5 rating.
There is a review from Mountain Bike Rider from 2016 (covering the 700 Plus model)
which firstly emphasises the traction, which is exceptional especially in damp slippery trail conditions.
Also mentioned in this review is the easy rolling: despite having larger than normal tyres, combined with the
fun ride on account of its manoeuvrablity.
