Expirience with the Scott Contessa Scale 940

Ludwig Döhl The Scale is a race bike mercilessly trimmed for propulsion and comes with a very light carbon frame. The trend towards more high speed stability geometries stops with Scott. Good! Because with this balanced handling model, you are equipped for all situations on the trail. The seating position can be described neither as sporty nor as comfortable. It has a moderate character. But one should not underestimate that wheels are extremely important for the riding experience on the trail. Scott knows this and installed higher quality than the competitors at the price of 1299 Euro . Scott gives 5 years warranty on the bike.
