Aero might be everything, but lightweight bikes have undeniable appeal and unmatched coolness.
Lightweight (15.14 lb with pedals, cages, etc.)
Great handling (stable and agile on descents)
Wide tires (30mm Schwalbe Pro One) provide a smooth ride

The climbing prowess of the Scott Addict RC isn’t even the best thing about it. The team obsessed over every detail and it shows.
Oct 2021 · Tobias Hörsch
SCOTT are confident enough not to send the flagship version of the Addict RC series into this group test, settling on the Addict RC Pro instead. No wonder, since the differences to the top-end model are limited. Besides a different carbon layup for the frame, the RC Pro uses a Shimano DURA-ACE Di2 groupset instead of SRAM RED eTap AXS, and Syncros wheels instead of Zipp. Is that enough for it to hold its own against the four fastest race bikes of the 2021 season?
Excellent climbing performance, despite bulky tires and the highest weight in the test
Good vibration damping
Loves corners and carving thanks to the wide tires
Good combination of smoothness and directness
Low inherent comfort of the frame
Sacrifices pure race performance with large tires
No power meter installed
