Scott Foil RC TRI – Aero, Lightweight, Comfort
Popular in short-distance triathlons for its aerodynamics, handling and speed, the Scott Foil RC TRI takes the Foil RC and adds triathlon-specific upgrades for multi-discipline athletes. It stays true to the three core features of the fastest road bike Scott has developed: Aero, Lightweight and Comfort.
The Scott Foil RC TRI pairs a SRAM Force AXS drivetrain and power meter with a ZIPP VUKA Bull base bar and carbon extensions, a Syncros Duncan SL Aero TRI seatpost and deep Syncros Capital 1.0 60mm carbon wheels, so the bike leg of your race is faster and more comfortable.

F01 Airfoil Technology
Through SCOTT’s own F01 technology we are able to ensure that every tube and junction is optimised for the best aerodynamic design. Validated through computer simluation and wind tunnel testing we can guarantee that this is the fastest Road Bike SCOTT has ever made.
Dropped Seatstays
All Foil RC models feature dropped seatstays which means additional comfort for the rider but crucially for an aero bike it also means less air resistance. They are aimed in at a 10 degree angle, forcing the passing air into the spinning spokes. Through aerodynamic testing we discovered that this detail provides significant aero gains as the bike moves forward. With the dropped seatstays we’re also able to hide the disc brake callipers not only further reducing aero drag but also adding to an overall clean aesthetic.
Oversized Head Tube
The Foil RC features an oversized head tube which not only allows for fully integrated cabling for both mechanical and electronic shifting but more importantly acts as a fairing for the bike. It splits the oncoming air and reduces aerodynamic drag as a rider powers forward.
Lightweight Design
With over 300 designs tested, SCOTT engineers were able to deliver a better carbon lay-up, a 30% reduction in the number of carbon pieces and joints used compared to the previous Foil and with incredible attention to the smaller details such as seat stays and seat clamp the team shaved weight without sacrificing stiffness.
