It’s a shame such a small spec choice has had such a profound impact on how it rides.

With 170mm of travel on tap and the ability to morph itself at the push of a lever, Scott's new Ransom is the best all-mountain/enduro bike the company has created.

Scott Ransom eRide 910 review

Jun 2022 · Alex Evans

It’s fun and intuitive to ride, but isn’t quite as calm or controlled on trails as the suspension travel and component spec would lead you to believe

Highs
  • Intuitive to ride quickly

  • Bosch motor feels great

  • Fox dampers are easy to set up

  • Mostly well-specced

Lows
  • Tyre traction very limited

  • Undamped and harsh ride at times

  • Tall frame limits size choice

SCOTT Ransom 900 Tuned AXS in review - How much travel do you really need?

Jun 2021 · Felix Stix

Over the years, we've tested countless versions of the SCOTT Ransom. With its 170 mm travel it has always had to face a very capable and rowdy competition, but how did it fare against a more restrained test field in our group test? In typical SCOTT fashion, the Ransom is very light despite the burly FOX 38 fork and wide 2.6” tires, but does it still stand a chance uphill?

Highs
  • Incredibly stylish and eye-catching look

  • Intuitive handling

  • Comfortable and fast on long tours

Lows
  • Undefined handling at high speeds

  • Lever ergonomics in the cockpit

  • Inconsistent spec

Review: Scott Ransom eRIDE 910 – A Versatile Long-Travel Machine

Mar 2021 · Ralf Hauser

The Ransom eRIDE delivers the all-round capabilities that you'd typically expect from bikes with less travel.

Highs
  • Highly capable all-rounder.

  • Plush suspension with nice progression for big hit performance.

  • Steep seat tube and long chainstays make steepest climbs climbable.

Lows
  • Clacking motor (although not as noisy as on some other frames).

  • Purion display out-of-date.

  • Technically not approved for bike park usage

Bike Review | Scott Ransom 910

May 2019 · Spencer Johnson

If the Scott Ransom is a bike that you’re unfamiliar with, you’re not alone. That’s in part due to the fact that before this year, the bike was last produced in 2006. The 2019 model comes with more suspension, bigger wheels, and a list of adjustments that help it stand out from the noise. The Ransom strikes me as a very technical bike. There are many adjustments to be made to the suspension, shock linkage, wheel size and rear spring curve. I imagine while listing the attributes Scott wanted for the new Ransom, the engineers made a long list and said, “Yes, all of it.” This is not a bike that was slapped together, but a project designed to push the envelope in a sensible way. This Ransom 910 features a complex twin lock system that actuates the front fork and rear shock simultaneously with two adjustments. With the flip of your left thumb you can send the bike into one of two setups. The first is a firmer “traction mode” which effectively lifts the bottom bracket height and firms the suspension. The second is a full lockout mode—front and rear. The rear shock features an additional adjustment that I haven’t experienced before. The Fox Nude rear shock has a ramp adjustment that changes the size of the shock’s air chamber to give a more linear feel or progressive ramp. Riders are also able to pick their wheel size. The bike that was tested came with 29 inch hoops, but you can also opt to run 27.5 wheels if that’s your thing.
