In 2008 Scott celebrates 50 years of designing and manufacturing high quality, high performance sporting equipment. Scott's headquarters are based in Firbourg, Switzerland, close to the swiss alps. This allows Scott's product development team to work closely with their professional riders on both mountain and road teams. There is no more rigorous testing ground than the Tour De France or the Mountain Bike World Cup. This close association that Scott has with the professional level of cycling has enabled Scott to develop some truly world class bicycles. Scott has set a number of industry benchmarks in recent years.
Renowned in the cycling industry and media as "THE CARBON EXPERTS". Scott completely revolutionised the way high quality carbon bikes are manufactured. Their CR1, tube to tube construction and integrated moulding process (IMP) stunned the cycling world with frame weights that were beleived impossible only a few short years ago. These professional level bicycles not only broke all records for light weight (See Addict, CR1, Plasma, Scale, Spark). They also exceeded the strength and safety expectations of their respective proteams.
It is remarkable that Scott can manufacture these bicycles cost effectively enough to make them afforable for cycling enthusiasts. The exact same bike the pro-riders use can be purchased at Brookvale Bike Factory.
