Summary
The Scott Addict is a lightweight, versatile endurance bike praised for its comfortable ride and reliable performance across various terrains. It excels in climbing and offers confidence-inspiring handling on descents, though some builds may lack sprinting pop and have heavier wheelsets. The bike's design balances stiffness for efficiency with comfort features like thin seat stays and wide tires.
Lightweight frame
Versatile all-rounder
Comfortable ride
Reliable disc brakes
Excellent climbing bike
Missing a bit of pop in sprinting compared to higher spec'd builds
Syncros RP2.0 Disc wheels are on the heavier side
Shimano ST-RS685 shifters may be bulky for small hands
The Addict is a great climbing bike and I set some PRs on some familiar roads feeling exceptionally good in and out of the saddle on the Addict when the road turned up.
the Addict Gravel is of few cyclocross/gravel bikes that can truly rival a dedicated road machine in terms of pure efficiency — it’s the proverbial two-wheeled rocketship, super eager to accelerate.
The Addict CX feels like an out-and-out race bike.

With a weight of just 6.82 kg in size M, the SCOTT Addict RC Ultimate Disc is the lightest disc-equipped racer in our test – and its € 9,999 price tag also makes it one of the most pricey ones. But is the investment worth it? We tested the SCOTT Addict for you thoroughly.

Comfortable, lightweight frame with good value Shimano kit but a sturdy ride. Buy if you want a lightweight, well-specced, all-rounder with extra robust tyres
Light, smooth ride with full Shimano 105 stop and go kit
Heavy-duty tyres and frame is damped rather than dynamic in feel

Scott's new road bikes for 2018 include disc brakes on a more aerodynamic version of the Paris-Roubiax winning Foil, and updates to the Addict for every kind of rider

At just 6.63kg the Scott Addict RC should be a climber’s dream bike – we’ve found some hills to ride it up
Super-light
Shimano’s top-spec groupset with the option for synchronised shifting
Bar-end junction box for a tidy finish
Good-quality wheelset with alloy brake track
Firm, underpadded saddle
Expensive

Scott has a long history of working with aluminium alloy and carbon fibre, so it’s not really surprising that the company uses both materials for its cyclocross bikes. At one end of the spectrum, there is the cost-conscious Speedster CX that has an alloy frame, and at the other, there is the weight-conscious Addict CX […]

Scott's Addict 20 features this tried-and-terrific frame plus a sensible mix of parts. It boasts one of the stiffest bottom brackets of any bike.
