Scott (Switzerland) - Press Release: Faster, more versatile, more progressive, more control, more mounts, more fun, more adventures!

The goal was from day one to build the ultimate gravel & adventure bike. To have one bike who can do it all. Be fast on tarmac, have the comfort on rough terrain and optimal handling when it gets gnarly. The Addict Gravel is most likely the fastest, most capable, and most fun bicycle we have ever created. Just leave the daily routine behind and see where the road ahhh gravel will take you!

Compliance and Control:

Controlled and smooth riding experience without any effect on the pedalling efficiency and stiffness.

Carbon construction:

All models in the SCOTT Addict family are known for extremely lightweight construction and the new Addict Gravel is no exception. Taking into consideration the riding this bike is designed for; we have created the strongest carbon road frame set we ever build. Through clever layering and reinforcement in certain zones we came up with a very light but also extremely durable frame set.

Mounts:

Smart mounts for gear and accessories make the Addict Gravel ready for serious adventure rides.

Fenders:

The Addict Gravel comes with well-hidden mounts for fenders.

Integrated cable routing:

Integrated cable routing not only makes for a clean and premium look, but also improves the airflow in the front and provides more space and no cable rubbing for handlebar bags.

Cockpit:

The SYNCROS Creston iC SL X cockpit combines ergonomics compliance and light weight as no other handlebar out there.

1 or 2 by:

Is perfectly compatible for 1 and 2 by drive trains. For one by the front derailleur plate can get replaced by a bike specific chain guide or closing plate.

Aero tube shapes:

Gravel and aero can also go hand in hand. SCOTT’s patented airfoil design has been applied to its main tubes (down tube, head tube, seat tube, seat post, seat stays) with the goal to optimizing the airflow and reduce the overall drag without any compromise on comfort and compliance.

Rotor size:

All Addict Gravel will come with hydraulic disc brakes and 160mm disc rotors for perfect braking performance. Front allows for 160mm/180mm, back 160mm/140mm.

Geometry:

The geometry got optimized for modern, aggressive gravel riding. Our goal was to create a well-balanced geometry for a controllable and predictive handling even in tricky situations on narrow trails. It comes with an increased reach, longer fork rake, lower bottom bracket and shorter stem to make for a more agile and stable bike off-road, that still provides the optimal position for pedaling efficiency even with bigger tires.
