scott addict gravel 20 carbon gravel bike 2026

The Scott Addict Gravel 20 Carbon opens up a world of off-road possibilities for riders who refuse to limit their adventures to tarmac alone. Built for cyclists who crave exploration beyond conventional routes, the Addict Gravel 20 delivers the performance needed for multi-surface riding without sacrificing the speed and efficiency road enthusiasts demand.
Generous 45mm tyre clearance gives you the freedom to tackle challenging surfaces with confidence, whilst lowered seat stays work alongside a specially tuned carbon layup to provide exceptional pedalling efficiency when you need to push hard, plus the compliance required when conditions turn rough. The Scott Addict Gravel 20 strikes an impressive balance between responsiveness and comfort across varied landscapes.
Cable management reaches a new level of sophistication with the Creston ic SL X system, which guides mechanical and electronic shifting cables plus hydraulic brake hoses completely inside the frame. Beyond creating clean aesthetics, internal routing improves front-end aerodynamics and eliminates cable interference when mounting handlebar bags, a practical advantage for bikepacking adventures.
Adventure cyclists will appreciate the thoughtfully positioned mounting points across the Scott Addict Gravel 20's frame. Bolt-on mounts accommodate top-tube bags and accessories, an additional down-tube position accepts an extra bottle cage or tool storage, and dual bottle cage locations ensure easy access when riding with a frame bag. Preparation for extended rides becomes straightforward with these practical solutions.
Aerodynamic principles typically associated with road racing appear throughout the frame thanks to SCOTT's patented airfoil tube shapes. The down tube, head tube, seat tube, seat post and seat stays all benefit from optimised profiles that reduce drag whilst maintaining the compliance gravel riding requires. Speed gains add up without compromising the supple ride quality off-road cyclists need.
Progressive geometry puts riders in control across technical sections, whilst the adventure-ready specification of the Scott Addict Gravel 20 Carbon makes remote explorations genuinely achievable. For cyclists seeking a capable machine that handles forest tracks, gravel roads and rough byways with equal competence, the Addict Gravel 20 delivers the performance required to get properly lost and find yourself again.
