Proper lightweight bikes aren't dead, and the Scott Addict RC ultimate proves it
Briefly

The article discusses the author's preference for lightweight road bikes over aero models, detailing experiences with notable models like the Pinarello Dogma F and Cervélo S5. Despite the latter's speed, the author recalls a lack of excitement, contrasting it with the fun factor of the Ridley Noah Fast and Factor Ostro VAM. The author highlights the Scott Addict RC Ultimate's impressive weight of 6.4kg and exceptional climbing and handling performance, ultimately favoring its ride quality over aerodynamics.
The Pinarello Dogma F excelled in handling and weight, making it memorable, while the Cervélo S5 was fast but left a less positive impression.
The Scott Addict RC Ultimate surprised me with its lightweight (only 6.4kg) and remarkable climbing capability without sacrificing ride quality.
I prefer the low weight and dynamic handling of lightweight bikes over aerodynamic performance, as demonstrated in my experience with the Scott Addict.
The handling of the Scott Addict is exceptional; it performs well on steep climbs, flat stretches, and long rides without any issues.
