The IMP built Spark sets the world standard for a lightweight, race ready, full suspension bike. Boasting 110 mm of rear travel, the Spark is ideally suited to cross country, marathons, multi-day stage races, and all day fun. The DT Nude shock allows the rider three separate travel settings that can be accessed via a handlebar mounted TWINLOC lever. The rider can choose from 110 mm of travel, 80 mm of travel in the Traction mode, or full lock out front and rear.
New TwinLoc technology
The all new TwinLoc lever allows the rider to keep both hands on the handlebars while selecting the desired travel settings or fully locking the
suspension.

IMP - Integrated Molding Process
Our engineers have developed IMP™, the newest technology applied to carbon frame production. The toptube, headtube and downtube are produced in a single step using a top-secret process. Our proprietary process allows for lighter construction by removing 11% of the material from the head tube intersection while increasing strength by utilizing high modular HMF composite fiber in conjunction with the brand new HMX composite fiber that our engineers developed solely for our use. The result of this exclusive combination is a truly unique weight/stiffness ratio. To compliment IMP™, our Spark frames benefit from Naked External Tubeset (NET) technology, which eliminates the cosmetic carbon layer to shave precious grams.
