Dangerholm's Scott Spark RC Visione Includes 3D Printed Bar/Stem - Bikerumor

Feb 20, 2025

Mountain bike tech has made quantum leaps over the past 15 years; wireless shifting and nearly integrated everything. Sometimes, that progress come at the cost of aesthetics, and serviceability — but not this build. Custom beautification mad man Dangerholm takes sets his sights on the Scott Spark RC and reimagines it in Rosso Corsa elegance.

Dangerholm looks for inspiration in Italian sports cars to bridge those gaps in his latest creation, the Scott Spark RC Visione. This concept bike embodies where racing innovation, modern aesthetics, and practical design intersect. It showcases next-level integration with a nod to its Italian inspiration, which is highlighted in a stunning “Rosso Corsa” paint job reminiscent of Ferrari.

“The Italian name ‘Visione’ and the Ferrari ‘Rosso Corsa’ paint job is a small homage to the incredible concept cars, motorsport classics, and designs for which we have Italy to thank. A deep source of inspiration, for when you want to try and push the limits.”

From dropper posts to refined 1x drivetrains and updated geometries, mountain bikes today are built to maximize speed and control. But another wave of subtle, and equally performance enhancing changes is taking place: seamless integration of components that blend performance and aesthetics. The Spark RC Visione isn’t just about eye-catching design—it’s a complete rethink of user-focused integration, made possible by state-of-the-art 3D printing (and wood).

At the core of the Vision is an advanced 3D-printed handlebar, co-developed by Syncros and German manufacturing powerhouse TRUMPF.

This handlebar hides brake hoses with a snap-in channel design, eliminating the inconvenience of routing cables internally. While Syncros’ engineers, Maxime Lallemand, and Quentin Beauregard, executed the engineering finesse, the idea began with a wooden prototype—old-school creativity meeting cutting-edge technology.

With RockShox’s wireless Flight Attendant system on board, mechanical suspension cables are a thing of the past. The bike leverages SRAM’s AXS tech, fine-tuned with ultra-minimalist Zirbel Twister controllers tucked discreetly into the custom handlebar. There is no external clutter, just clean, precise shifting.

TRUMPF’s 3D printing prowess enabled the manufacture of this lightweight 6061 aluminum handlebar with complex shapes that were impossible through traditional methods.

The result? A fully certified, ISO-tested component that’s ready for real-world trails.

The Spark RC Visione doesn’t just look the part—it’s built to race. Equipped with SRAM’s XX SL Eagle Transmission and tuned with a CeramicSpeed OSPW cage and bottom bracket, the drivetrain is set for maximum efficiency. Trickstuff Piccola manages braking with custom 3D-printed titanium levers, showcasing both performance and cutting-edge aesthetics. Zipp 1ZERO HiTop SW wheels complete the setup, blending durability and compliance for technical trails.

With the Scott Spark RC Visione, Dangerholm sets the bar high for what’s possible in integration and user-friendly innovation. Expect this evolution to become the norm as tech-savvy riders and super-mechanics push the envelope of whats possible.
