SCOTT Patron ST 900 Tuned – BIKE test

While competitors like to focus their bikes on clear core virtues, SCOTT prefers to aim for the widest possible range of use. The flagship all-mountain Genius is symptomatic of this. The latest E-Patron also falls into this category, even in the downhill-orientated ST version. The Patron also incorporates traditional SCOTT features such as the suspension lockout on the handlebars. This system allows the rear suspension to be adjusted in three stages: rigid, firm 115 millimeters or a fluffy 160mm stroke. This should make it easier for the bike to balance uphill and downhill, casual touring and fiery trail riding.
