The high price makes this prohibitive. However, I think light weight e-bikes are going to disrupt the full power market pretty soon and you can only get better by pushing the envelope. This is what I see Scott doing here.

Quality review as always Will, thank you, this one is on my hit list 👍

If you’re an active rider who still enjoys working hard on a ride, this is a wicked bike that will give you some assist when you want, but feel like a normal bike as well. I have a 910 and have some upgrades on it and absolutely love it.

Great review!

I have the 910 eride lumen and what a pleasure to ride a bike like this, perhaps I'll replace the wheels but don't have any idea of what are the best for a bike like this.

I loved everything about my carbon Scott scale but didn't care for all the cables or the lockouts , and never did lockout my suspension anyway

Beautiful bike

Sick!

Great review Wil, the Lumen would be perfect for cruising around my local trails in the Plenty Gorge or at Lysterfield. Based on your review the bike seems more downhill capable- xc than XC, still being called the Lumen it should come with a light like the Patron 😂

I know! Clearly Scott missed a trick there 😂

great review....can you tell us what adjustments are available to the head tube? what angles? and what does it do to the reach? thanks again!

@FlowMountainBikeYouTube

11 ай бұрын

Certainly can! The Lumen comes fitted with the offset 0.6-degree headset cups that are oriented in the slack position (65.5°). If you pull out and rotate both cups within the head tube, this will steepen the angle by 1.2-degrees (66.7°). There is also a set of 0-degree headset cups that can be installed to provide you with a setting in between (66.1°). The beauty about this adjustment is that it doesn't significantly impact the rest of the bike's geometry. So the reach and seat angle remain much the same. I left the Lumen set in the slack position during the test period, but I have experimented with the adjustment on both the Genius and the Spark. There's actually a video of us performing the adjustment in the Spark review here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/oWqcs9d-itrbqc4.html Hope that helps explain, though just give me a yell if you've got any other questions mate!

I own a lumen 910 and love it. How about your experience of using a 140mm folk? more capability of downhill?

Great review! I am a below the knee amputee so have no pedal feel on my left side. I currently ride a Scott 940 carbon hardtail and do pretty well on medium difficulty trail rides only occasionally slipping off the pedal. How closely does this geometry match up to the Scott 940?

@FlowMountainBikeYouTube

9 ай бұрын

Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed the review! I think the geometry will be a little different to the Scale, in that the Lumen has a longer reach and wheelbase, and will also be taller at the front. It'll feel a bit more relaxed in the riding position, and of course a lot more comfortable in terms of the full suspension platform. Otherwise the sizing should match up pretty closely - if you're a Medium in the Scale, you should be the same size in the Lumen. Hope that helps! [Wil]

I went from a Scott Genius with the big plus wheels to a Focus Sam ebike and the versatility of that lock out system is sorely missed.

It's a sweet looking bike that's for sure. looks like a stealth hill bomber

Video interessante, volevo un consiglio ,ero interessato alla Lumen 910 ma non avendo mai avuto l'opportunià di provare il motore TQ non vorrei rimanere deluso, la mia scelta ricade anche sulla Orbea rise 2025 che avendo la possibilità di utilizzare i 2 parametri 54nm oppure 85nm la rendono polivalente, il motore TQ mi intriga per la silenziosità il nuovo shimano 801rs non saprei se è pure silenzioso, chiaramente tutto questo ricade in base a come si usa l'ebike il mio uso è prettamente ciclabili strade bianche sterrato leggero niente di estremo dire quello che si potrebbe fare con una gravel solo che cercavo un mezzo più confortevole e leggero, se le due ebike dovrebbero avere lo stesso prezzo quale sarebbe la più indicata? accetto anche altri suggerimenti grazie

More travel and more torque, would make it absolutely perfect.

Well then you get the Specialized Turbo Levo SL

My 900 will be deliver soon. But realising a cheap components put on a £9k plus bike makes me hesitate.. i will see it first and if I don’t like it then I’ll put it back straight to the box and call for collection

Damn that spec for that price is absolutely wild 😂. If I ever become a dentist I would def cop for sure

Is it possible to replace rear brake pads on this thing easily or you have to remove the caliper from the frame to do so?

@FlowMountainBikeYouTube

I've not tried myself, but it's a standard Shimano 4-piston brake so you should be able to remove the pads without unbolting the whole brake calliper. [Wil]

thanks for you

I would need to cry myself to sleep each night knowing i had spent nearly $13000 on such a low spec bike. I dont expect to see many of these out on the trails

I want something like that in a budget version, with a much bigger battery and longer front and rear travel.

Can't wait to see how many people hate this bike without even riding it. Let alone even seeing it in person. My spark is my favorite bike I've ever owned. And boy, it would sure be cool if it had a motor lol. And that's coming from someone who regularly races XC.

I must admit I was pretty skeptical before my first ride on the Lumen! It ended up being an absolute blast to ride though, and also exhausting - I loved how fast it made me want to ride! Very familiar feeling to the Spark, albeit with better stability and deeper feeling suspension. And of course you can ride faster and further with the motor's assistance. For the e-Curious XC rider, a bike like this would be a great option. [Wil]

Have it not even 2weeks. So far 400km on it, and love it. Until now I was biking on a Yeti SB115, but decided for this due to last years hip surgery, as during this year I see that normal bike is still putting too much pressure on the hip if climbing too much. Using it on eco only. Turning motor off if no steep climbs. On steep ones the motor helps a lot, yet you still have to pedal a lot.
