SCOTT Scale 940

“Bang for The Buck” is at the heart of the SCOTT Scale 940 Hardtail. Featuring some of the tech and developments of the bike much higher up the range, the Scale 940 will get you off and running in the XC racing world or help you simply up your speed game on the single track.  

Hardtail mountain bikes continue to offer simplicity and responsiveness. SCOTT’s offerings have always been world class. With 30 years of carbon expertise on tap, the latest SCOTT Scale lineup continues to impress. This updated iteration of the Scale 940 introduces the Syncros Cable Integration System and SCOTT’s RideLoc 2 remote system. More winning additions are the SRAM NX/SX Eagle Drivetrain and Shimano MT 200 Disc Brakes. 

The Scale 940 also now features  SCOTT’s adjustable headset. You can now adjust the head angle by 0.6 degrees slacker or steeper without cutting cables or bleeding brakes. 

The buildout also features a Syncros cockpit, making for a hardtail that is just itching to finish first. The Scale 940 brings you racing inspired geometry, coupled with a straightforward and sharp design that provides the Scale line with its distinctive character and aggressive look - a bike that proudly flaunts its definitive characteristics. This rig is ready for just about anything.

To help achieve The Scale’s hardtail bliss, SCOTT utilized FEA  (Finite Element Analysis) software in order to map out an optimized carbon lay-up. With FEA, they simulated force on virtual models of the frame while incorporating all physical phenomena that exist in the real world. This intensive process yields an optimized surface area for the frame, a super light construction, and a compact frame without sacrificing the stiffness or durability. 

On a hardtail you want your frame to flex so as to provide a comfortable ride without giving up critical structural integrity. In their virtual modeling process SCOTT worked meticulously to create controlled flex in the seat-stays, seat-tube, and top-tube. The slight flex in zones related directly to comfort keeps you from fatiguing as easily as you would in other carbon frames with less optimized fiber arrangements. 

Top-tier components and an uncompromising frame design decisively accelerate the Scale away from the pack with every pedal stroke. Whenever you find yourself up against the clock, tip the scales in your favor.
