from Cyprus Date Reviewed: November 6, 2006 Strengths: THIS REVIEW IS FOR THE FX4. The frame is the same througout the range (which is excelent),so it is just a case of upgrading when things break. Good all round package for entry level stuff. Weaknesses: The forks are rubbish and need to replace before disks can be mounted. Same goes for the hubs. This gets expensive as it all has to be done at the same time. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Troodos mountain Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Price Paid: $1000.00 Purchased At: Sleaford Cycles Similar Products Used: Pro flex. (over 6 years ago. Cant remember model) one with the rubber suspension bushes!! Bike Setup: Stock, but about to upgrade to Roc Shox Tora 302's with mavic 321 rims Deore hubs and 07 Magura Louise disc brakes. Will change rear shock next but ran out of money!

from UK Date Reviewed: August 19, 2005 Strengths: G-Zero FX 2004! The FX has a great firm frame that will get you through any trial and weather. An incredibly sturdy bike, I am very rough with my bike and from 9 previously owned bikes the Scott FX has proven to be the strongest! With all the stamina comes a minimal weight which is perfect for the cross country rider! Will handle the steepest of climbs with no problem. Weaknesses: Scott went and produced the strongest bike on the market, the gear shift is reliable and the brakes are perfectly tweaked, but they did downsize the bike hugely by... well quite frankly... putting crap forks on it. This bike could have been huge if it was sold with better forks. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Thetford/Swinley Duration Product Used: 6 months Price Paid: $1500.00 Purchased At: Pauls Cycles (Dereham) Similar Products Used: Specialized FSR comp, Scott FX-4, Giant XTC NRS Team, Scott Genius. Bike Setup: KEPT THE BIKE EXACTLY HOW IT WAS... but had to change those awful forks to FOX Float 130mm RLC 130RLC
