The 2026 Scott Scale RC Team is the pure essence of cross-country racing, engineered for riders who demand uncompromising performance.
The Scale RC Team represents a superb balance of exceptional stiffness, ultra-low weight, and Scott's thirty years of carbon expertise. This hardtail machine, finished in a sleek Carbon Black, is built to accelerate decisively away from the pack on every climb and power through technical sections.
At its core is the advanced HMX Carbon Frame, featuring the Syncros Cable Integration System for a clean, aerodynamic look, and an adjustable head angle (±0.6°) to fine-tune your handling for different courses. New for this model is the efficient and crisp SRAM S1000 Eagle AXS Transmission 12-speed wireless electronic groupset, providing lightning-fast shifts under load without the clutter of cables.
Up front, the RockShox SID SL 3P Air fork offers 110mm of responsive travel, managed by the SCOTT RideLoc Technology remote for on-the-fly, three-mode suspension and dropper post adjustment. Rolling on tubeless-ready Syncros Silverton wheels and high-traction Maxxis Rekon Race tyres, the Scale RC Team is built for competitive speed and all-day cross-country dominance.
