Thankfully, we’re seeing a slew of new endurance bikes that are actually made for tarmac. I love gravel bikes, but modern endurance bikes are the sweet spot for efficient road rides. With that, Scott has launched an all-new Addict that offers a lightweight and comfortable ride with an approachable geometry and 38mm tire clearance.
2026 Scott Addict Highlights:
- Purpose-built for all-day road riding
- 25% more vertical compliance than the Addict RC and 50% more than the outgoing Addict model
- Bring on the 38mm rubber
- Updated geometry offers 5mm shorter reach and higher stack
- More playful with 2mm shorter chainstays
- Available in HMX and HMF carbon layups
- In-frame storage near the bottom bracket for lower center-of-gravity
- Integrated cockpits and internal routing
- 780g HMX frame weight
- 16.31 lbs (Premium)
