Product Description
Scott Ransom is the ultimate Enduro bike. Climb like a pro and become a demon descender. Winning will be a breeze with 170mm of pure trail munching machinery. The Ransom is designed for speed, whether you're going up or down. With a long reach and slack head angle, the stability at speed pointing downwards is outstanding. However no compromise has been made in climbing ability, with short chainstays giving excellent responsiveness and a steep seat tube angle providing a proper climbing position for long ascents. The best Enduro riders are hard hitting and don't hold back when it comes to riding fast. When speed is your focus you don't want to have to worry about damaging your bike and with Ransom Protection you don't have to. Scott have integrated a downtube protector under the bottom bracket and downtube to protect again flying rocks and undergrowth, and a noise-silencing chainstay protector. 29 inch wheels are great for rolling over tricky roots and rocky sections, effectively making these terrains easier to ride. The contact patch with the ground is increased compared to a 27.5 inch wheel, giving you increased traction in slippery conditions and more confidence cornering and descending as a result. 29ers also carry momentum with ease and give you a faster roll fatiguing you more slowly over longer distances. Syncros Revelstroke wheels with Maxxis tyres is a tubeless ready combination, so you can quickly and easily convert your wheels to enable you to run lower pressures for even more grip, and reduce your risk of picking up a puncture on the trail. Scott's Twinloc suspension system enables you to control the shock and fork via an intuitive handlebar remote. With the remote you can choose between three riding modes; Descend, Traction Control and Lockout. SRAM's 1x GX Eagle drivetrain gives you smooth reliable shifting over a wide range cassette so you'll never be struggling for a gear when you're grinding up steep ascents. Shimano XT hydraulic disc brakes will give you superior stopping power so you can fly down the fastest most technical trails and be confident in your braking performance when you need it. Evo-Lap technology has been used in the carbon lay-up of the frame fibres to create a lightweight and compact frame with no sacrifices in stiffness, comfort or resistance to impact.
