Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Since you answered it, Ive pored over it a hundred times, and still don't see prices on there anywhere--its starting to drive me up the wall.

So what gives--where are the prices on the Scott website?
are you in the USA?they are on the USA site. https://www.scottusa.com/northamerica/bike/road.php

Yep. That's it--I needed to specify a region. As soon as I was on the US specific site, I saw the prices.

Thanks.

Rich's bikes actually inspired me to get mine, which was the original purpose of this thread way back when I posted it. I had to get a bike my sponsor carried, and they carry the Scott line so:



This is what I ended up with. It's a Scott Speedster S5, BUT all the frames throughout the line are the same. The S1 frame is the same as the S6. Just the components are different. I transferred my Ultegra stuff over to the frame with some Open Pro/Ultegra wheels and viola - one very solid bike build. I've put a couple thousand miles on since then. The frame is WICKED STIFF - its also a bit twitchy. But overall I like it a lot.

I thought the S1 and S2 had lighter frames than the rest of the line.

For this year, the S10 and S20 have carbon stays.
