    Just got this bike and your video helped me pull the trigger. Probably the best value aero race bikes on the market but without a doubt a heavy bike. 18lbs stock in a size 49cm XS and with my pedals, computer/mount, cages, one bottle, saddlebag, and sensors the bike weighs in at 20.8lbs. In comparison my 2020 Canyon Ultimate CF SL 8.0 Disc w/ Hunt Aero 35 Carbon Wheels weighed 18.5lbs with everything loaded. Yes the Foil is an Aero bike, but at this price range it probably should at least be 1lb-1.5lbs lighter. Overall great bike with my only other qualms being the seat post wedge cover being stupid and properly torqueing the wedge without banging the seat post is pretty hard. The bike does support an out-front mount and it's made by K-Edge, so it's really high quality but it's also $70 and there are zero third party alternatives and it's actually pretty hard to find. Previous Foils came with chain catchers and while this years model still has the mount built in, Scott did not provide the catcher. The chain catcher is either discontinued or not offered on Syncros website anymore and I had to order one from Germany and I am hoping it's still compatible with this years Foil. The bike does not come with a power meter, however for less than $300 you can buy a SRAM AXS ETAP left crank upgrade, however this is pretty much sold out in the most common sizes. It's great that the Schwalbe ONE Race Guard comes standard in size 28c and they look really great with the grey side walls, but the tires are not tubeless compatible even though the wheelset is and while they perform well, they just aren't as puncture resistant compared to something like a GP5000.

    I have this bike and my first impressions was wow, this bike looks great and I am not a green or grey person. Second, a lot of bang for the buck like GC Performance and others have stated, the bike at 18.22lbs is heavy. The cheapest weight to shed weight is going SRAM Red AXS 48-35 and that shed 283g at $690! A lot of money but per gram that's more weight loss than you will see in getting a better wheelset. Another weigh to loose a lot of weight but even cheaper is getting a carbon saddle. I didn't like the Belcarra saddle and instantly swapped it for a Prime Primavera Carbon Saddle at $120 and 133g, thus saving around 95g. So for $810, the Red AXS cranks and new saddle will save you 378g or .83lbs bringing the bike down to 17.39lbs
    Like an idiot I went the more expensive route since I wanted to change more parts and changed the stock tires to Continental GP5000 28mm $130 and saved 50g, SRAM Force AXS 48-35 cranks $268 and saved 100g, changed the rotors to Centerline XR 160mm Center Locks $180 and saved $54, changed to a Force AXS RD $377 and saved $40g, changed to a Force 10-30 Cassette $195 and maybe saved 20g, and went with a Prime Primavera Carbon Saddle $120 and saved 95g. All together saving 359g for $270 and bringing the bike down to 17.43lbs. I plan to upgrade the wheelset at $1300 and tubes and maybe save another 230g or .50lbs, bringing the bike just under 17lbs if you don't count pedals, cages, mounts, sensors, computer, saddlebag, ect. At this price you can argue that just getting the RC 10 at $6500 would have been much cheaper

    Crazy how they have made bikes heavier. My Scott foil 10 rim brake version from 2015 is around 17.5 lb with Ultegra, when I put my carbon wheels on it. My cockpit is still aluminum as well. This bike new cost around $2600 5 years ago. This bike is going to be 18.5 once you put pedals on it. I would seriously consider removing the front brake if I was riding this in Florida.

    What's your opinion on PF BB or Threaded? I have been browsing for a new bike in the coming year or so, but debating between the three bikes below. I am leaning toward Cervelo for the endurance frame with hidden cables since I am not a planning to race in any form at all, but has PF BB. I think it is a toss up between the Pinarello or Specialized if I should avoid PF BB. Forgot to mention I am looking into Ultegra Di2 only as of now. Might lean toward rival, but for now only looking at Ultegra 12sp.
    PF BB - Cervelo Caledonia 5
    IT Threaded BB - Pinarello Prince
    Threaded BB - Specialized Tarmac Expert

    A full carbon road bike that is almost 19lbs for $6k. I bet you can get a 105 bike down to that weight for a lot less. I used to have a 105 rim brake 2009 Felt that was a 58cm that weighed at 18.1 lbs with only a wheel upgrade. I'm willing to bet you can build a 105 disc within 200 grams of that bike for a lot less money. Not seeing the value, personally. However, it's still a nice build and it looks great.

      Keep the addict I've ridden both great bikes but the addict rc is a little bit lighter and a little bit less aero. You're saving 5 watts at 40km/h. But side winds catch the bike a lot more. You get a lower grade of carbon with the foil as well (I don't care much about this but some people do). Both bikes are amazing but I think the addict just has a bit more of a kick each pedal stroke feels a little bit more responsive the foil holds speed very well.

    I’m enjoying the bike so far ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA My only real complaints are the brakes and the pedals. I feel like a bike designed for bigger people should have much larger pedals and more heavy duty brakes. I’ve only gotten two really good rides out of it, minimal downhill action, and the brakes feel like they’re already going out. A larger person has more momentum, so I think this wasn’t thought through very well. Also, I wear size 13-14 wide shoes. My feet cramp up on these pedals that are clearly made for smaller feet. Since I’m not a pro rider (and I don’t think many are who purchase this bike) I don’t think that the straps on the pedal are necessary at all. None of this takes away from the enjoyment I get from riding, however. I’ll just head to a bike shop to improve on a few things.

      Currently have a Canyon Ultimate CF SL 8.0 Disc w/ some Hunt Aero 35 carbon wheels and decided to pull the trigger and sell the Canyon to get this Scott Foil RC 20. Yes, it will be 1.5+ lbs heavier but the bike is a true aero bike, has electronic shifting, has 12 speed, and overall should be faster. I looked around and yeah Giant and Canyon offer a lot of bang for your buck but the TCR range isn't a true aero bike and doesn't come with a carbon cockpit and integrated cables and the Propwl line doesn't fit me. I would love to get a Canyon Aeroroad but I am not in love with the fact that the 2XS now comes with 27.5 wheels and in order to get electronic shifting you need to go SLX and spend $6500. This is all to say I couldn't for my life find any Giant TCR and for the past three years never could score an Aeroroad. Yeah, the bike is a lot of money but find me a true "aero" bike, carbon cockpit, integrated cables, electronic shifting, 12 speed, and comes with carbon wheels for $6000 or less and let me know, so yeah it's kind of a value. It's kind of weird since in past years Scott was not this "value" brand

    $6k + tax for an 18 lbs bike? Unreal. This is a $3500 bike and it makes me sick people are paying these prices.

      this bike is not 3500 bucks your getting a lot for your money, this is a full aero race bike...... it is not meant to be light, it is similar to the venge vias which was 18lbs and tt bikes which are 19-20lbs, this bike does its work when at top end speeds and flat grounds and holds top end speed like a beast, scott gives a lot of bang for the buck!!
