Coil more value for money. You get coil in the sus. Air sus, u basically buy a can of compress air..

I am dilemma in between "Rockshox Recon Silver TK Solo Air" which comes with Scott Scale 60 2012 or "Rockshox XC30 TK Coil" Scott Scale 70 2012.

I'm still waiting for my new bike to reach our shore perhaps by this week. rclxub.gif

your're riding an XC rig so go for air.you'll appreciate the slight reduction in weight for an entry level rig.is that the only difference? whats the pricing like?

Thanks for your comment.
The Scott Scale 70 is $2500 (Rockshox XC30 TK Coil)
and Scott Scale 60 is $3400 (Rockshox Recon Silver TK Solo Air) sweat.gif

looking at the price i m sure there are more than just the differences of the fork no?

Ya Bro. Scale 60 has better groupset. It's 3o speed instead of 27 speed in Scale 70.
It has remote lock-out too. Gotta pay extra $900.00 toll if we get Scale 60. sweat.gif

So bro, in your opinion. Does it worth paying extra for Scale 60?? rclxub.gif

i say depends on your budget.
if u can stretch it, then getting a better spec'ed bike is always recommended.

-Giant using pressfit BB and scott using normal BB

-Giant 27 speed Scott 30 speed

-I like giant frame more,it looks nicer.For the gear set i like scott since it's 30 speed.

Conclusion = it's still up to you smile.gif

The XTC 3 posted in BBS is expensive than the scott coz it's using FOX fork.The specs is different from the 1 you seeing in giant website.

Yoo bro. Thanks for sharing.
Let me make a trip to Sen Aik and find out. sweat.gif Hehe~

Ayam just got my Scott full suspension ride. After I ridden it few round in the taman to test out. I noticed that the rear shock has some oil discharged. It seems leaked. The rear sus operates by Air+ Oil. Wondering what was happened. The lockout doesn't seem to function as well. Anyone knows how to solve? just wanna know what's happened.. (I will bring it back to bikepro later)

I think it's the stanchion oil too.Like my magura fork it purge out so many oil i think it's leaking but when bring back to the shop they told me it's only stanchion oil.It is design to be like that.

Yoo bro! My rear shock was really leaked. Bikepro replaced a new one for me immediately. Yeay.. Now My rear shock works flawlessly. rclxm9.gif
