Key Features:

Frame

1. Material:

   • Constructed from HMX carbon fiber, Scott's premium lightweight carbon that offers an excellent balance of strength, stiffness, and weight-saving performance.
   • Designed to deliver both comfort and performance for long, mixed-terrain rides.

2. Geometry:

   • Gravel-specific geometry with a slacker head angle and longer wheelbase for improved stability on rough and uneven surfaces.
   • Slightly relaxed positioning compared to road bikes, providing comfort on longer rides without compromising handling.

3. Aerodynamics and Integration:

   • Aero-optimized frame with integrated cable routing, reducing drag and improving aerodynamics.
   • Clean lines with internally routed cables that enhance both the look and performance of the bike.

4. Mounting Options:

   • Multiple mounting points for racks, fenders, and water bottle cages, making it versatile for touring, commuting, or bikepacking.

Fork

1. Material and Design:

   • Full carbon fork designed to complement the frame's performance on gravel and rough trails.
   • Features a tapered steerer tube for improved stiffness and handling.

2. Tire Clearance:

   • Can accommodate up to 40mm wide tires, providing versatility for various types of gravel and off-road conditions.

Brakes

1. Disc Brake Compatibility:
   • Flat-mount disc brakes (center-lock) for optimal braking power, essential for handling steep descents and rough terrain.

Integration

1. Drivetrain Compatibility:

   • Designed to work with modern drivetrains, including 1x and 2x setups with internal cable routing to ensure a clean, clutter-free look.
   • Suitable for both mechanical and electronic shifting systems (e.g., Shimano Di2 or SRAM eTap).

2. Bottom Bracket:

   • Features a PressFit BB86 for efficient power transfer and improved stiffness.

Weight:

• One of the lightest gravel framesets available, thanks to the HMX carbon construction. This makes it highly responsive while still being able to absorb rough terrain.
