Scott is not caught unprepared for 2021 and launches on the market the new Addict RCA bike with a prestigious pedigree that won last year's Vuelta with Simon Yates. The new version promises to be even more competitive.
One point that Scott has worked a lot on is the aerodynamics, starting with cable integration. The new Addict RC is the first bike to feature fully integrated cable routing for both mechanical and electronic groupsetsThis result was achieved with the new “eccentric axle for fork”. In practice, a space has been created between the upper and lower bearings of the headset. This allows for all the cables for both the transmission and the brakes to pass through. All this in combination with the Creston IC handlebars has produced full integration.
To further improve aerodynamics, a patent has been patented new tube profile, with the aim of reducing air resistance. The lower seat stays also help improve aerodynamics by preventing air from stagnating in that area and creating greater resistance..
The Swiss brand has succeeded thanks to an innovative layering of high modulus carbon fibres, increase frame stiffness by 14,5% and without any weight penalty. The geometry is obviously typical of a performance-oriented bicycle.
In the opening image you can see the Scott Addict RC Pro mounted with Shimano Dura Ace Di2 and Syncros Capital 1.0 35 Disc wheels.
