I’ve got the 2023 v2 mega tower with fox 38 and rock shox super deluxe on rear I’ve put on sixth element carbon wheels with industry nine hubs and sram gx asx gears the bikes a nice build and perfect for my riding And my pedals are hope f22 which look cool as f

Officially motivated. Love this. Good thing I'm riding after work today. Barbados you say? Did you rent a bike there or bring yours on the trip?

Iam the owner of green addict rc 15

I own two Scott addicts. I have ridden the 2021 Foil RC10 (so comfy) & the 2024 Foil ultimate (too stiff for UK, perfect in Switzerland) - no difference for mere mortals in terms of felt watt savings. I have the same SL7, with Sram Red. It’s marginally better. With the same wheelset, both bikes feel really good but the SL7 holds speeds slightly better but nothing significant in comparison to the Scott addict. The SE/Endurance addicts are even more comfortable focused for those in their 60s.

Thanks for the review, 100% this bike doesn't get nearly enough airtime. The grape vine tells me that a new generation of Addict RC will launch end of this year, available early 2025 - I'm excited to see how Scott take the Addict to the next level, especially when you consider pairing it with a set of juicy Capital SL 40s, whenever they emerge into the real world.

thank you for the great review, looking at 2024 rc15 and this may have just sold it for me

I’d recommend an xc to anyone who rides anything besides motocross. That’s all the sx is for motocross.

For that price, i would rather save up a bit and get the Garmin Varia Radar 515. Lasts me for about 10 Hours with the Radar on, without the radar on, way over 40 in Daytime blink mode

No night time shots? Pointless video, especially when you pay that kind of price. Why would anyone want 500 lumens??? Cateye viz 450, lezyne 300 pro etc are more than enough for general road use.

I have a warranty replaced and I have the V1 but the V2 is a lot longer and I'm afraid that if I go with that it will not be a poppy and as fast. The high tower is almost the same as the V1 megatower now just 145 rear vs 160. I went mega bc I am a heavier rider and like going downhill fast but have a lot of mellow trails in Missouri and Arkansas and I don't jump or do big drops just enduro races. Max I'm dropping is 2 to 3 feet.

You went with the xc? It sounds like you said sx at the end of the video.

Where in the world would they let you on a track without full leathers???

Hahahah no gloves, in t-shirt 😂 where is this ?

Why does your Street Triple not have a light switch? I have one as well and it has a switch to turn on/off the low beam. Also your indicators are the old incandescent bulb ones, doesn't the LED ones come as standard?

Plan to put on an exhaust?

Sweet stuff bro💪🏾 street triple sounding lovely as usual.

They make them in a more low key color

Great Video, Does this bike usually sell here in barbados? If so how much do they usually cost?

Great Video, Question does one of theese bikes sell in barbados? How much do they usually cost?

I have a 23 300xc…70 hours on the bike and it has always felt harsh and horrible I spent $1200 on getting it tuned at 55 hours. It’s def better but still the faster I push the worse it feels I hate this bike lol

Which one has higher cockpit and more relaxed geometry?thanx mate

RIP toptube.

Im 60 and my very first dirt bike ever was the 250 xc i have 180 hours on the bike and I have been very impressed.

what is the maximum tire size?

What’s best for hare scrambles?

Fantastic vid! Been tossing up between sx and xc recently, definitely gave me some stuff to think about.

I just bought Scott Addict RC 40 2023 and can’t wait to take it out … it’s the best bang for buck out there

Love it

Have you ridden the 300 xc and compared it to the 250xc. Keen to know what you felt and why you chose the 250. I’m about to buy one or the other !

So the foil for flat addict for hills.

One correction. All modes except rain have full engine HP. Rain is limited to 100HP.

Great bike and excellent review video. Would you say the Peak 4550 wheels perform as good or better than Zipp or ENVE wheels of similar depth?

This bike revalved with a MX setting that’s a little bit on the softer side, is a Grand Prix weapon.

It may depend on your riding style, but it sounds like the front fork can be set up to help slow the bike down when you are off the throttle by being softer and compressing when off the throttle. Another advantage to that is when the front for compresses and shortens the bike becomes more nimble because the caster changes. So, in effect you can steer with the throttle using engine braking or accelerating. Let off the throttle to change your line and getting on to transfer weight to the rear to hold the line. Oversteer vs understeer. It is a different riding style that involves modulating the throttle in the power band. I come from a mtb background and I setup my suspension to get a lot of grip in the front and to be predictable and stable in the rear. I have a BMW z3 roadster with a bunch of aftermarket parts to make the suspension stable and predictable. I have set the suspension up to be playful and control the body weight with the throttle. For a car I want all the energy and movement to go into the suspension flexing and not into the bushings. The stock bushings make the suspension loose and do not provide feedback that I want. So, I have track polyurethane bushings to transfer the energy into moving the suspension and removing the mush. I want the body roll to be predictable. Given it has four wheels and not two, the car leans according to the g-forces and I cannot control that like a bike. But I want the body to pitch and yaw so I can feel what I am doing with the steering and throttle. As I am steering and modulating the throttle, I should feel the car coming together to get what I want at any moment. You really can steer with the throttle due to oversteer and understeer. Like cars, your wheelbase determines how nimble it will be or how stable it will be at high speeds. Also, your caster or angle of your fork for bikes will determine the nimbleness or stability. A raked chopper will not have a tight turning radius or be responsive at low speeds, but it will be great for cruising in a straight line at high speeds, because the wheelbase has been lengthened and the angle of the forks (caster) had changed.

Would love to see your opinion on the new 300's my 2024 sx is insane you can lug that thing in 3rd

Great points! I have a 2022 tx 300 that I bought for all the same reasons. I ride moto and woods with it!

You are spot on, I'm 55 and ride moto, single track and some hard enduro with this bike. works perfect for me! 👍

Niether...XC-W :)

Possibly the biggest difference now are the forks. 24 model cross country bikes don't have the air fork anymore.

The XC is way slower. No thanks.

Nice video! The xc seems way more versatile than the sx. Unfortunately is also quite a bit more expensive.

Very good! I still have my 2013 ktm250sx and i can see no sale in the future 😀 i would love the wide gearbox and the kickstand off of the xc tho!

Hi! I was wondering when you're gonna do the review of the new laptop from MSI as your comment said

Great review!

promo sm 🌟

Why xc, not the sx?

Just got mine they are nice and I'm surp how light they are! It says use a washer if tighten 30nm and above use a washer but my crank has the washer pre installed into the thread end's on my e~thirteen crank, ⁷I'm not sire if this is more than enough of should add more what did you think and do?

Are blinkers led ? Those didn’t look like

I agree, Scott is such an awesome value. Plus, you dont see a lot of them when youre out on the road! I have the Addict RC 20 with Sram force axs and I swapped the stock wheels with Farsport carbon wheels with DT Swiss 240 and I coudlnt be happier.

Nice vid👌🏾
