Scott just unvelled what is likely the lightest full carbon production mountain bike frame weighting in at 899 grams (71 grams lighter then the 2010 Scott Scale) and lighter then most our competitors road frames..

MSRP TBD, and there will be three models using this top of the line frame with Scott’s new HMX Net carbon fiber, called the Scale 899, Scale Premium (with 2011 XTR) and Scale RC. Below that, there’s the Scale 10, 20 and 30 that get the HMF Net carbon fiber which is slightly heavier and less stiff (just slightly). Lastly, there will be a Scale 70 with a lightweight alloy frame.

Want more? The 29er version gets unveiled this weekend…which is called the 949. Guess what it weighs?
