FIRST LOOK: SCOTT ADDICT E-RIDE

A trio of e-road bikes to bring some extra energy to your ride

Like every other road bike brand looking to stay in the game, whether it be with gravel bikes , or more recently, e-bikes, Scott has jumped into the pedal-assist market with a trio of bikes that are all based on their proven Addict RC road bike.

Fir 2021 Scott is running with bikes at three price points, all using the same Mahle Class 1 rear-hub motor.

WHAT SCOTT HAS TO OFFER

Thanks to the integrated downtube battery, other than the small on/off button located on the top tube, the Addict e-Ride’s profile fits that of any non-assist road bike. The Addict e-Ride top line model is the Premium and sells for $9299.

The Addict e-Ride’s frame gives you the ability to double your battery’s range by adding an additional 208Wh battery. The Range Booster comes as an accessory and looks like a water bottle. The system automatically adapts to having two power sources.

Scott’s three model line-up of Addict e-Ride bikes starts with the 20 model priced at $4499. The next up is the e-Ride 10 that sells for $6299.

The Scott hides it’s motor assist well by running the popular Class 1 Mahle rear hub motor which cuts-off assist at just under 20 mph.

All of the cables & hoses are run internally through the one-piece Syncros Creston handlebar/stem combo.
