Expirience with the Scott CONTESSA SCALE 940

Scott CONTESSA SCALE 940 Review
Ludwig Döhl
Purely visually, the aluminum version of the Scales is hardly distinguishable from the much more expensive carbon models. And also the features, such as the cables routed through the headset, remain in the CONTESSA SCALE 940. Here, the Swiss engineers have really delivered a solid job. The trend towards more high speed stability geometries stops with Scott. Good! Because with this balanced handling model, you are equipped for all situations on the trail. The combination of a long top tube and low stack value will make you sit sporty on the CONTESSA SCALE 940. Considering that in the range under 1500 Euro, hardly any other manufacturer makes a better bike for the same specs of wheels. Nice! We like: 5 years warranty on the frame! Check the size chart exactly before buying: the Scott CONTESSA SCALE 940 sizing runs big.
