The Addict RC is the lightest road bike Scott ever built. And the looks of the NSN Team bike make our heads turn. Hopefully this design will become available soon. For me and you to chase George Bennett going uphill. A nice challenge….

If you care about the UCI weight limits, you might want to go for the Scott Addict RC Pro Bike (far below left). Either in cumulus white/carbon black or beluga grey/seashore green. We prefer the black and white version, especially in combination with the glossy black Dura-Ace drivetrain that comes with the Pro model. As expected, all high-end Scott bikes are packed with carbon in-house Syncros parts. Total weight of the Addict RC Pro is about 6,7 kg, just within UCI regulations. Priced* at € 8.699.

If you couldn’t care less about UCI limits, you should consider the Addict RC Ultimate model (far below right). This chrome silver bike features a SRAM RED set-up and includes Syncros Capital SL 40 mm wheels. The name reveals the weight of the bike, an ultimate low with just 6,1 kg. With room to get this even lower at some point.

The Scott Addict RC Ultimate comes at a price* of € 12.999. For you to decide whether the difference in weight makes it worth considering.
