Scott Addict R4 Road Bike
Looking for the same quality lightweight, stiff, and innovative design as the Scott Addict R1? Then take a look at the Scott Addict R4! It may now have the integrated seatpost as the Scott Addict
R2 or R1 but the Addict R4 but still is complete bike weighing under 16 lbs. with a full Shimano Ultegra SL groupset. Not to mention it is at half the price of the Scott Addict R1!
Light just got lighter: After setting the bar with the creation of the CR1 with its revolutionary carbon welding process resulting in the lightest production frame for the last five years, Scott
has raised the bar and has produced something lighter, stiffer, and more comfortable: the Addict.
The Addict is a full fledged race bike that has been ridden to great success by the Pro Tour Team Saunier Duval. The new Integrated Molding Process technology, combined with proven CR1 technology
and the use of high quality HMX NET carbon fiber, makes it possible to produce the worlds lightest frame, weighing just 790 grams. Setting a new lightweight record required a great deal of
attention to detail. The cable stoppers, dropouts, and front derailleur mount are thus all made from carbon. Another great feature is the integrated seat mast that allows the frame to be lighter
as well as giving you a better feel of the bike. The Addict carbon fork, also created using IMP technology, weighs 330 grams and is included in the 790 grams!
Addict differentiates itself from the CR1 range by having a more stretched out geometry, lower head tube height, stiffer head tube and bottom bracket, and a smoother ride thanks to the redesigned
seat stays.
The Ride: Dont let the 790 gram frame weight fool you, this is a proven performer. The addict is a top performer in nearly every category from climbing to descending. The stretched out lower
position allows you to dive into turns and descend with confidence. The stiffer front end will let you sprint with the best. But most importantly, the Addict will keep you comfortable on your
short or long rides. Ask Jure Robic who powered his Addict to victory in the solo division in the Race Across America!
