2027 Scott Addict Gravel
The new Scott Addict Gravel marks an interesting change in direction for Scott's best-known gravel platforms. Rather than focusing purely on race-day speed, the 2027 Addict Gravel has been designed around comfort, stability and long-distance adventure.
So what has changed from the previous versions?
The biggest headline is increased tyre clearance, with the new frame coming standard with 700 x 50mm tyres and accommodating tyres up to 57mm (or 29 x 2.2). Scott has also significantly increased frame compliance, with a claimed improvement of 30% at the front and 60% at the rear. Promising a smoother ride when trails get rough and less fatigue on longer adventures.
The new bike also gains practical features including integrated frame storage, bar-end tools, additional mounting points and a dedicated gravel cockpit. Geometry has been revised to provide more confidence and stability on varied terrain.

Who is it for?
The all-round gravel rider, long-distance and adventure riders, and riders who still want speed but need to tackle rougher gravel.
In short, the 2027 Addict Gravel is for the rider who wants one fast, lightweight gravel bike that can handle almost anything.
Despite being designed in Europe, this bike appears to be built with Aussie "gravel" in mind. You'll feel equally comfortable on the rolling farm roads, rutted fire trails and flowing single track.
The new Addict Gravel range consists of 5 models with 10 colourways and 2 carbon layups.
