Geoff Kabush Dominates the XC-Race Aboard His Spark
SCOTT Wins at Sea Otter Classic
The 29r suits me well, remarked Kabush. Instantly Ive found myself relaxing more on the climbs because the wheel carries better momentum and has more traction, allowing me to work less and conserve energy. When Im at the start line looking around I havent a tinge of Bike Envy because I know my Spark 29 is lightest in class.
SCOTT has been very patient in regards to signing a North American XC racer since weve entered the US market, remarked Adrian Montgomery, Marketing Director of the US Bike Division. The opportunity to work with Kabush and 3Rox Racing to prove our 29 product was exactly what SCOTT needed to compliment the other race programs we have running worldwide. To start off the season in this fashion is incredible. We are truly dominating races worldwide now.
Scott11 rider Brendan Fairclough competed in the DH, Dual Slalom and Speed & Style events at Sea Otter, and while he did not take home any hardware, hes shown hes fit and riding well, even on a flatter course that doesnt suit his style.
Brendan had some fun at the Sea Otter Classic, especially in the Dual Slalom.
He rode a customized Voltage FR at the Dual Slalom that was built specifically for this race. It was fully equipped with the brand new Shimano Saint group set that was realeased to the public on the first day of the event. Brendan was one of the first professional riders to race with this production group set.
