About this product
The Addict RC 10 is a competition-oriented road bike built around an HMX carbon frame and matching HMX carbon fork, a combination chosen for its lightweight stiffness and efficient power transfer. At a claimed weight of 15 lb 10 oz (7.1 kg), it suits riders focused on climbing, sprinting, and sustained road efforts. Shimano Ultegra Di2 handles the drivetrain duties throughout, pairing the ST-R8170 electronic shifters with the RD-R8150 rear derailleur, an FC-R8100 Hollowtech II crankset (52/36t chainrings), and a 12-speed CS-R8101 cassette (11-34t). Hydraulic disc braking comes via Shimano BR-R8170 calipers with 160 mm front and 140 mm rear RT-CL800 rotors. The fully integrated Syncros IC-R100-SL carbon cockpit, Syncros Capital 1.0S wheelset, and Syncros CF seatpost round out the build, while 700 x 30c Schwalbe ONE TLE Race-Guard tires provide a balance of low rolling resistance and all-weather grip. The frame carries a limited three-year manufacturer warranty. Pedals are not included.

What people are saying
Reviewers consistently praise the Scott Addict RC 10 for its impressively plush and comfortable ride, delivered by the HMX carbon frame and wide tires without sacrificing stiffness or climbing ability. The bike's exceptional weight-to-stiffness balance is a recurring highlight, with experts noting it accelerates effortlessly on steep gradients and handles predictably at speed. The thoughtful hidden integrations, including internal cable routing, a bar-end multi-tool, and the clean Syncros cockpit, earn repeated admiration. The most common criticism across reviews is the stock Syncros Belcarra saddle, which multiple reviewers found too narrow or poorly shaped for their anatomy, with the added frustration that the seatpost clamp only accepts round rails. Some reviewers also flag the proprietary cockpit ecosystem as a potential barrier for riders wanting to swap components, and the conservative paint options draw mild criticism for being uninspiring.
