The Scott Addict RC Pro HMX Frameset is built for competitive riders who refuse to compromise on weight, stiffness, or speed.Constructed from Scott’s elite HMX high-modulus carbon fibre, this frameset strikes a phenomenal balance of structural rigidity and mass reduction.By carefully refining the carbon layup, engineers have shaved away every non-essential gram while ensuring the head tube and bottom bracket zones remain incredibly stiff for instantaneous power transfer.
Aerodynamic optimization plays a central role in this generation of the Addict RC.Featuring a 10 per cent reduction in frontal area compared to previous iterations, the frame integrates a narrower head tube, sculpted fork blades, and dropped seatstays to cut through the air seamlessly. Fully integrated cable routing keeps the cockpit remarkably clean, routing lines directly through the handlebar and headset to eliminate drag and present a striking, minimalist aesthetic.
Designed around Scott's aggressive Road Race geometry, the frameset places the rider in a low, aerodynamic, and stretched-out position ideal for high-speed cornering and breakaway efforts.Despite its razor-sharp racing focus, the frame yields generous clearance for up to 34mm tyres, giving you the flexibility to run wider rubber for enhanced compliance, lower rolling resistance, and absolute confidence on rougher bitumen or long alpine descents.

Why This IS For You
✅ Dedicated Climbers: The incredibly low overall weight makes this the perfect foundation for building a featherweight bike tailored for conquering steep mountain passes.
✅ Criterium and Road Racers: The aggressive geometry and ultra-stiff bottom bracket deliver the lightning-fast acceleration and twitchy responsiveness needed in a bunch sprint.
✅ Clean Cockpit Enthusiasts: Completely hidden internal routing hides all electronic wires from the wind, giving you maximum free watts and a premium, uncluttered look.
Why This May NOT Be For You
❌ Endurance Riders: The racier, stretched-out geometry and aggressive stack height may feel too demanding for casual weekend riders seeking an upright, relaxed position.
❌ Mechanical Drivetrain Users: This frame is engineered strictly for modern electronic groupsets, meaning traditional mechanical gear cables cannot be routed through it.
❌ Budget Builds: As a premium tier product, the standalone price reflects elite engineering and top-grade carbon, which may outprice self-built hobby projects.
BFC PRO TIP
Because the Addict RC Pro routes all electronic wires internally through the headset, changing your stem length or handlebar height down the line can be a tedious process. We highly recommend completing a professional professional pre-purchase bike fit to establish your exact stack, reach, and handlebar width before trimming the carbon fork steerer tube. When assembling, always apply a high-quality carbon assembly paste to the Syncros seatpost to prevent slipping without over-torquing the integrated clamp.
