The 2026 Scott Scale RC Team Issue is the embodiment of pure Cross-Country (XC) speed
Blending an ultra-lightweight carbon chassis with top-tier wireless components. This machine is engineered for riders who demand uncompromising efficiency and podium-level performance.
Built around Scott's elite Scale Carbon HMX frame, the bike features a revolutionary monocoque construction that minimises joins, resulting in a lighter and significantly stiffer structure. The frame features an adjustable head angle system and a sleek Syncros Cable Integration System, routing all cables internally through the headset for a clean, race-ready aesthetic. Crucially, the frame also features a 'Service Door' in the downtube, providing easy access for maintenance without requiring the removal of the bottom bracket.
Up front, the RockShox SID SL Select 3P Air fork delivers 110mm of plush, race-tuned suspension, which is managed on the fly by Scott's RideLoc Technology remote. This handlebar-mounted lever offers three suspension modes (Descend, Traction Control, and Lockout) for instant adaptation to terrain changes.
The drivetrain features a cutting-edge SRAM GX Eagle AXS Transmission, providing flawless and reliable wireless electronic shifting even under the highest pedalling loads. Paired with a massive 10-52T cassette and a stiff SRAM DUB crankset, you have the range and precision needed to conquer any race course. Braking power is provided by the excellent SRAM Motive Bronze 4-Piston Disc brakes, offering superb modulation and confidence-inspiring stopping power. Finishing the build are fast-rolling Fulcrum Red Zone 300 wheels wrapped in Maxxis Rekon Race 29 x 2.4" tyres.
