Scott Aspect 730 Mountain Bike 2015 - Hardtail MTB
The Scott Aspect 730 is ideal for somebody wanting a recreational mountain bike that can take on gravel tracks, cross country trails or even the occasional trail centre visit. You can easily use the 730 as a commuter bike too, and you can buy the Aspect through a Cycle to Work Scheme.
Frame & Fork
Scott used 6061 aluminium alloy to build the frame with. This alloy has an excellent stiffness to weight ratio, whilst also being strong. It is this combination of properties that makes aluminium such a good frame material for cycling.
Your positioning on the frame is upright and stable giving you extra control on trickier terrain. In urban areas being upright will also improve your visibility.
The fork comes courtesy of Suntour and provides 100mm of suspension travel to smooth out lumps and bumps. It also features remote lockout. With a lever on your handlebar you can fix the suspension in place when you want to climb or pound the tarmac to prevent the fork bobbing up and down. The speed at which your fork returns to its normal position after an impact is very important. Too fast and it will buck you up, too slow and it won’t be ready to take the next hit. With adjustable damping you can set the perfect level for you and improve comfort and ride performance.
Components
The Shimano 3x9 speed drivetrain gives you a wide range of gears for taking on climbs, rough terrain and rapid road riding. Shimano hydraulic disc brakes are great to see on a bike at this price point. They offer great stopping power and performance.
Strong Syncros rims can take the impacts of rough riding. The 27.5” wheel size is nimble for precise cornering and rolls well over bumps. These are wrapped in Kenda Slant tyres with low profile knobbles for better grip when off-road. They do roll quickly when you’re back on the tarmac.
