If you, or at least I think about it, the square one suspension is very much like a high pivot accepting that it has the parallelish linkage for the small stuff and that lower vacuum piston thing for the bigger hits.Best of both worlds?

Givisiez, Switzerland. January 16th, 2019. 2019 marks a new beginning for SCOTT Sports. With the SCOTT DH Factory, SCOTT looks to bring fresh talent and ideas to the Downhill World Cup Circuit. With riders from all over the world, the team looks to hunt for podiums week in, week out across both the men’s and women’s fields.
With the race calendar fast approaching, our new group of athletes have training and bike testing under way and are ready to sprint out of the start gate.

Having been part of the SCOTT Family for many years now, Brendan Fairclough will continue with SCOTT. Always a fan favorite, Brendan looks forward to more World Cup racing and other “extracurricular” activities. "I’m super keen to get the season under way. I’m feeling great heading into 2019, and look forward to riding my bike, both on track and for film projects. We have a good vibe going with the team, it’s all very exciting."

SCOTT Welcomes three new athletes to its program: Dean Lucas, Marine Cabirou and Flo Payet.
Australian 23-year-old Dean Lucas brings with him past success, and a very bright future for years to come. He's definitely looking forward to the next few years of racing, “I’m really excited to be given the opportunity to work with such a well-known and high-end company like SCOTT. I know they’re putting in heaps of work with the DH program this year and have put a lot of faith into me so in return I don’t want to let them down and have been working hard to make sure that doesn’t happen. I feel I started to peak momentum towards the end of last season and know I will carry that on leading into 2019!”

Marine Cabirou is coming off the back of a season that ended on a high note - a 4th place finish at World Championships in Lenzerheide, Switzerland. Her confidence both on and off the bike is very promising, SCOTT can’t wait to see what she will bring to the circuit in 2019. "I am very motivated for this new season, and even more so by integrating into the new SCOTT Downhill Factory Team. We are really in good shape and I’m sure that we are going to do big things together!"

With Frenchman Flo Payet, we get a well-respected, tough competitor with plenty of speed. Having had an injury-affected 2018, Flo is eager to start putting it all on the line in 2019. "I’m stoked to ride for such a big brand with some dream teammates. We have an amazing bike and a solid crew, I’m really excited to spend more time pushing our limits with these guys!"

Interesting that Brendan is second in the lineup everywhere and, besides clothing, is the odd man out on Enve, when the others are on Mavic wheels. Any other differences?

I wonder if after finding out the old team was ending he started building his own deal?
OK. Norco or Marin it is. Let’s see!

Bike looks good (even if it does look like a session). Hope this new team can make things happen with it.
