What makes it special
Thoughtful details. Big possibilities.
01Design
The new Scale’s design was uncompromisingly subjected to our pursuit of perfection and drive for pure efficiency, strictly following the guiding principle of “Form follows Function”. In our search for the ultimate, yet most simple construction, we’ve centered the design around the essentials by balancing the bike’s DNA in order to create a whole new breed of XC bike. The result is a straightforward and clear design, which provides the all-new Scale with its distinctive character and aggressive look: a bike that proudly shows off its characteristics.
02Low Impact Aluminium
Low-impact aluminium is virgin aluminium that has been smelted using renewable energy such as hydro, wind or solar. This aluminium allows for a significant reduction in carbon intensity compared to global averages. The aluminium used in this frame is less than 4.0 kgCO2e per kilogram of aluminium produced, this is a 69% reduction in comparison to the regional average for aluminium ingot production according to CarbonCloud: https://apps.carboncloud.com/climatehub/product-reports/id/140084214257
The Scott Scale 40
