Details of the SCOTT Foil RC Ultimate

F01 Airfoil Technology

Every tube, every connection: aerodynamically perfected by F01 technology. Tested in the wind tunnel, built for maximum speed – the fastest SCOTT road bike ever.

Syncros Creston iC SL Aero

Aerodynamically optimized in the wind tunnel, the Foil's slim handlebar-stem combination offers maximum wind resistance. Adaptive compliance provides comfort on the hoods and extra stiffness in the drops for full wattage power when it counts.

Syncros Duncan SL Aero CFT

The patented Syncros Duncan SL Aero CFT seatpost is a key feature of the bicycle. Not only does it improve riding comfort on uneven roads, it also enables efficient power transfer on light gravel or cobblestones. The two-piece construction with a load-bearing front carbon section ensures that the seatpost bends in a controlled manner when subjected to vibrations, effectively acting as a shock absorber.

Lower seat stays for comfort

All Foil RC models are equipped with lower seat stays. This design increases riding comfort while reducing air resistance. The seat stays are angled at 10° to direct airflow into the rotating spokes. Aerodynamic tests have shown that this detail significantly increases forward efficiency. In addition, the lower seat stays conceal the disc brake calipers, further minimizing drag and creating a clean, harmonious design line.

Oversized steerer

The large-sized steerer of the Foil RC allows for fully integrated cable routing for both mechanical and electronic shifting systems. At the same time, it contributes significantly to aerodynamics. It splits the oncoming airflow and reduces air resistance while riding.

Lightweight design with optimized carbon layout

After analyzing and testing over 300 different frame designs, SCOTT engineers developed an optimized carbon layer structure. This reduced the number of carbon parts and connections by 30% compared to the previous Foil. Precise design details, such as the seat stays and saddle clamp, enable an additional weight saving of 9% without compromising structural stiffness.
