SCOTT FOIL DEMO - A huge success! 25 of our customers tested Scott new flag ship model the Foil.
All were massively impressed by the quality of the ride, its stunning looks and lets face it SPEED!
To get your hands on one of these rockets ships call in the shop, further demos are available.
Science isn’t an overnight process, nor is it restricted by modern product cycles. In order for a technology to endure in a highly competitive market, it must be a benchmark and a moment of progress that leaves a mark in the timeline of an industry.
F01 Technology heralds the age of the Aero Road bike and becomes the FOIL, the most tangible interpretation of our project and the result of our tireless commitment to Science and Perfection. SCOTT FOIL, YOUR next bike.

WHY YOU NEED AN AERO ROAD BIKE?
In the near future, round tube competition bikes will be abandoned in favor of a fuselage more suitable for any situation a rider may encounter on the road, battling the elements.
The elements are always against you, the wind is trying to slow you, the climb is trying to break you, riders today need an advantage against these elements AND the competition.
The Perfect Bike takes into account three MAJOR variables; Stiffness, Weight and Aerodynamics.
A combination of the three makes for the most complete balance of attributes for transforming rider input into acceleration.
For fewer watts, the rider can maintain the same average speed, keeping them fresh for whatever effort is most important.
The advantages span across Sprinting, Climbing and overall stage winning disciplines found in road racing.
THE FOIL IN SCOTT’S ROAD RANGE
The FOIL is nestled appropriately between the CR1 and Plasma in our Road Range.
While the CR1 is more Comfort-Performance oriented the FOIL is positioned as a Competition-Speed bicycle.
The Plasma is an all-out TT bike that incorporates Scott Aero Science to extract drag from the bike and rider and provide more speed at less energy expense.
The FOIL represents the perfect balance of Lightweight, Aero and Stiffness resulting in the most advanced Road Racing bike available.
Scott Aero Science is a dedicated group of engineers within the Scott organization, while committed to the Scientific Method, are charged with the task of innovating the most aerodynamic bicycles possible.
They hypothesize beyond empirical thinking, experiment with new techniques to prove these hypotheses, and always produce data that can be reliably replicated.
To prove Scott Aero Science theories, they employ CFdesign software to test concepts virtually before validating designs in the wind tunnel with quantifiable data.
Bike designs are additionally tested with mannequins, actual riders, and a number of other environmental variables to ensure that test results accurately reflect real world riding conditions.
