Scott Contrail 30

The Scott Contrail 30 MTB offers a good balance between stability and control. With its modern, trail-inspired geometry and carefully selected components, this hardtail mountain bike is built for versatility. The frame and reliable components make it suitable for challenging climbs as well as flowing trails, ensuring that every ride is an enjoyable experience.

Frame and geometry
The Contrail Alloy 6061 aluminium frame, featuring custom butted tubing, combines a robust construction with well-balanced weight. Internal cable routing makes the bike look clean and sleek, and ensures the cables are better protected from dirt. The modern geometry inspires confidence on descents and enhances efficiency on climbs. Add the Suntour XCE28 fork with 100 mm suspension travel, and you have a pleasant balance between comfort and agility across various terrains.

Shifting and braking
The Shimano CUES 9-speed drivetrain ensures smooth gear changes and a wide gear range with the 11-46T cassette. This allows you to climb steep gradients with ease and ride efficiently on flat sections. The shifters with two-way release offer direct and intuitive operation. The Tektro hydraulic disc brakes with 160 mm rotors guarantee reliable stopping power so you are always in control, no matter how wet the conditions. This combination of drivetrain and braking system makes the bike highly versatile.

Finish and details
The Contrail's finish emphasises reliability and comfort. The HL handlebars and DDK grips provide good grip and control, and the DDK saddle offers the support you need on longer rides. The Maxxis Rekon Race tyres with a 2.4 inch width deliver speed and grip on a variety of surfaces, from dry trails to harder gravel sections. The combination of Alexrims X-20 rims and Formula hubs creates a solid, long-lasting wheelset that enhances the bike’s overall durability.
