Summary
The Scott Foil is a high-performance aero bike that excels in speed, stiffness, and comfort, making it a top choice for competitive riders. Its design features like hidden cable routing and aerodynamic fork tips enhance its wind-cheating capabilities, while the frame's geometry and materials ensure a responsive and efficient ride. Despite some practical drawbacks, the Foil is celebrated for its race-ready performance and striking aesthetics.
Light weight, aerodynamically optimized frame
Completely hidden cable routing
Fast, stiff, climbs with grace
Surprisingly plush ride
20% faster, 9% lighter, and 10% more comfortable than previous generation
Power meter was sorely missed
Fiddly and sometimes impractical bike to actually live with
Only minor refinements from previous model
Exposed cables are so , right?
If you like to ride fast, then Scott’s aero bike – the Foil – should certainly be near the top of your dream ride list.
Scott’s first Foil Disc, released in 2017, was arguably the blueprint for what we now judge to be a modern aero race bike.

Jun 2022 · Tobias Hörsch
Faster, lighter, more comfortable – this magical triad should play well together in the SCOTT Foil RC 2023. Whether this is noticeable in practice, the test shows.
Coherent overall concept with first-class integration
Agile handling despite high riding smoothness
Clever details for more comfort
Small riders have to do without the additional comfort of the seatpost
