Scott Addict RC Team Force AXS Road Bike Tungsten Grey, 52

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""I’ve spent serious time on this build, and the balance is what stands out most. It feels incredibly light on long climbs, but it never gets nervous when speeds pick up. The Force AXS drivetrain shifts flawlessly under load, and the Zipp wheels give it that confident, fast roll on everything from smooth tarmac to rougher pavement. It’s the bike I’d grab when the route profile is unknown but the pace is guaranteed to be high."" The Addict RC Team Bike is built for days when speed is the goal and the road tilts skyward. From punchy climbs to rolling breakaways, this bike feels eager to surge forward with every pedal stroke. SCOTT’s obsession with lightweight performance is immediately apparent, making long ascents feel shorter and accelerations feel effortless. Underneath that refined ride is a meticulously engineered HMX carbon frame and fork that prioritize stiffness where it matters and compliance where it counts. The wireless SRAM Force AXS drivetrain delivers crisp, reliable shifts without clutter, while the Zipp 303 SW carbon wheels strike a sweet spot between low weight and real-world aerodynamics. Paired with an integrated Syncros carbon cockpit, the Addict RC Team Bike is a purpose-built race machine that thrives when the pace is high and the margin for error is slim. Heads up - We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning-and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive. If you want to double-check the details, our Gearheads are always here to help."
