Summary

The Scott Foil is celebrated for its exceptional ride quality, combining speed, comfort, and aerodynamic efficiency. It's designed for performance with a stiff rear end for responsive climbing and a planted feeling on descents. While it offers pro-level experience at a more accessible price, some compromises are noted in wheel quality and component integration.

Pros
  • Exceptional ride quality

  • Geometry matches top-level bikes

  • More accessible price tag

  • Aero refinements for performance

  • Comfortable on rough roads

Cons
  • Carbon is of a lesser grade than top-end models

  • Wheels aren't great

  • Budget Shimano wheels not doing it any favors

Key Quotes
The Scott Foil 30 is a stiff racer whose exceptional ride quality cannot be understated, especially for an aero bike.

Scott Foil Disc 10 Di2 review

Oct 2018 · Warren Rossiter

The Foil is one of the most accomplished aero bikes around, but a full aero package would be good. Buy if you want one of the best aero road bikes on the market right now and are prepared to upgrade the wheels

Highs
  • Wonderfully reactive handling, fast and forgiving with it

Lows
  • Wheels are outclassed by the chassis

Scott Foil 10 Disc review

Jun 2018 · Peter Stuart

The Scott Foil 10 is fast, well engineered and fairly comfortable, but is weighed down by its low spec wheels

Highs
  • Fast

  • Rigid and a nice level of comfort for an aggressive aerodynamic design

Lows
  • The overbuilt Syccros wheelset a little deflating for this price

  • As is the Ultegra spec
