2018 Scott Addict CX RC Gravel Bike

ByKevin Updated onJuly 16, 2022

2018 SCOTT ADDICT CX RC GRAVEL BIKE 

A Stunning Bike For All Ride Conditions

The Addict CX RC is Scott’s only true, dedicated, cyclocross race bike, and it’s built for hardcore ’crossers and new racers alike. The SRAM Force 1 drivetrain offers precision shifting on a budget, and the simplicity of the 1x drivetrain is ideal for cyclocross.

$3,800 – 18 lbs – 8 kilos – Carbon frame – 40mm Tires

Probably the best for value Gravel Bike on the Planet

The full-carbon fork has plenty of mud clearance and a tapered steerer, so it’s ready to tackle the sloppiest courses you can find and will chew up frozen ruts typical of winter racing. Replaceable dropouts are a welcome addition, and the thru-axle system makes changing wheels quick and easy—without the need for tools.

Syncros RP 2.0 Disc aluminum clinchers are great for training or as entry-level race wheels, and at just over 18 pounds, this bike is light, stiff, and ready for action.

The Addict Family

While the Addict CX RC may be Scott’s only true, dedicated cyclocross race bike, the Addict family crosses over into the world of gravel.

The Addict Gravel 20 ($3,700) has the same carbon frame as the CX RC, but with an Ultegra 8000 2x drivetrain and a modified, full-carbon fork (with less mud clearance than the CX RC fork).

The Addict Gravel 30 ($3,100) has the same frame and fork as the Gravel 20 and features Shimano 105 11-speed components.

This bike is now 4 years or more old and as such will be a very good buy if you can find a 2nd hand version. Super light bike built ahead of its time.
