Welcome to our review of the new Scott Scale 960, a hardtail mountain bike that's ready to take on any trail. Scott has created a truly versatile machine with the Scale 960, combining race-inspired geometry with a direct and decisive design.
At the heart of the Scale 960 is a custom-butted 6061 alloy frame, featuring Scott's Syncros Cable Integration System for clean cable routing. The tapered headtube and UDH dropout interface provide modern standards for improved handling and compatibility.
Upfront, you'll find a FOX 32 Float Rhythm Grip fork with 100mm of travel. This fork offers 3 riding modes, rebound adjustment, and a lockout feature, allowing you to fine-tune your ride for any terrain.
The drivetrain is built around SRAM's reliable NX Eagle 12-speed system, providing a wide gear range for tackling both climbs and descents. The SRAM NX Eagle DUB crankset with a 32-tooth chainring offers efficient power transfer.
Stopping power comes from Shimano disc brakes with 180mm rotors in the front and 160mm in the rear, ensuring reliable braking performance in all conditions.
The Scale 960 rolls on Maxxis Rekon Race tires in a generous 2.4-inch width, striking a balance between speed and traction. These 60 TPI tires are versatile enough for a variety of trail conditions.
Syncros components round out the build, including the alloy handlebar, stem, and seatpost. The Syncros Belcarra Regular 2.5 saddle provides comfort for long days in the saddle.
With its race-inspired geometry and aggressive look, the Scott Scale 960 is a bike that's not afraid to show off its definitive features. Whether you're tackling technical singletrack or pushing your limits on the race course, this hardtail is ready for anything you can throw at it.
