Therefore SCOTT offers 2 different  TWINLOC  levers with following fork/rear shock 
combinations:

 

-

FOX Nude with different rolls for FOX CTD fork and RockShox DNA 3 fork 
(SCOTT Article number: 230097) 

 

-

FOX CTD with different rolls for FOX CTD fork and RockShox DNA 3 fork (SCOTT Article 
number: 230098) 

Please note that the FOX CTD rear shock does not offer a traction mode, but a platform 
mode. In contrary to FOX Nude the air-chamber volume of the positive chamber remains the 
same throughout the different modes

IMPORTANT!

You can only assemble the TWINLOC remote lever in “left side upward position” on the 
handlebar.

You have 3 positions of the TWINLOC remote lever.

1.  CLIMB MODE: 

the shock is locked; climbing on asphalt roads is now possible without any power loss. 
Simultaneous a blow-off-system prevents the shock being damaged in case the rider did 
not open the system while crossing obstacles.

2. TRACTION/RIDE MODE: 

For Traction: by reducing the internal chamber volume inside the shock the travel of the 
shock will be reduced to around 65% - 70% the characteristic of the air spring gets harder, 
the SAG is shorter and the geometry steeper. This results in climbing without “bobbing” 
and offers still optimum traction of the rear wheel. 
 
For Ride: by adding a platform on the compression damping system the shock will not 
bounce while standing on the pedals

3. DESCENT MODE: 

full travel of 150/130mm (700 / 900)

You will find the following positions on the remote lever:

For the assembly of the remote control of the front fork lock-out 2 different cable rolls which 
are changeable are existing.

The different roll for the pull of the fork remote cable can be changed within few minutes to 
adapt the lever to your fork model/brand.

You will see on the downside of the roll the indication of the fork brand or the fork model.

SCOTT offers 2 different TWINLOC levers with following fork/rear shock combinations:

 

-

FOX Nude with different rolls for FOX CTD fork and RockShox DNA 3 fork (SCOTT
