Scott Bicycles Announces the Scott11 DH/4X Race Team

April 2, 2009

Scott Bicycles announces a new World Cup Downhill and Four Cross Team, Scott11. Scott rounds out its WC presence with this gravity team, complimenting the Scott-Swisspower WC XC Team. Scott11 is a developmental program for both riders and the Scott Engineering department. For the riders, many of whom are young talents looking to make that break on the WC Circuit, it a chance to ride the World best equipment and enjoy some of the finest support available. For the engineers, taking concepts to production after testing at the racetrack is the best possible opportunity to fulfill consumer needs. We stepped up for 09 and became title sponsor to Scott-Swisspower, one of the finest XC Race programs ever created, and the brainchild of Thomas Frischknecht, stated Adrian Montgomery. With Scott11, we took a similar approach by investing in another professional, Claudio Caluori, who could mentor and guide young riders on the way up. At the same time, we gain valuable experience we can use to further develop our gravity product and the entire Mountain Segment.
