What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I recommend the Scale 925 to riders who want a fast, no-nonsense hardtail that still feels capable on modern XC trails. It climbs efficiently, accelerates quickly, and the SID SL fork keeps the front end composed when things get rough. It's a great option for marathon rides, racing, or anyone who values speed over excess suspension."We love a bike that turns effort into forward momentum, and the SCOTT Scale 925 Bike does exactly that. Built around a lightweight aluminum frame with race-inspired geometry, it feels eager on climbs and quick to respond when we put power down. Whether we're lining up for a local XC race or heading out for a long day of singletrack, the Scale 925 rewards smooth pedaling and precise line choice. The RockShox SID SL fork adds 110mm of controlled travel up front, taking the sting out of roots and rocks without dulling the bike's efficiency. A reliable Shimano XT-Deore drivetrain delivers crisp shifting across a wide gear range, while wide Maxxis Rekon Race tires provide confident traction with minimal rolling resistance. It's a modern hardtail that blends speed, simplicity, and capability into a clean, focused package. Heads up - We do our best to keep bike specs and images current, but occasional component changes can happen without warning-and sometimes the photos might not show the exact build you'll receive.
