Purely visually, the aluminum version of the Scales is hardly distinguishable from the much more expensive carbon models. And also the features, such as the cables routed through the headset, remain in the SCALE 920. Here, the Swiss engineers have really delivered a solid job. With its geometry, the Scott SCALE 920 is right in the middle between playfulness and high speed stability. Well trained athletes are likely to really enjoy the sporty seating position. Finally, here is another killer argument: in price range on long tours, the Scott is one of the best models in the on long tours category. Scott gives 5 years warranty on the bike. Caution when selecting the size: the Carbon frame sizing runs big.
