photo by El Toro Media Scott’s all-new Plasma RC TT time trial bike set out to be the fastest thing on two wheels that the Swiss bike maker has ever created. Built for the lowest possible aerodynamic drag while racing alone into the wind, the newest generation of the Plasma TT bike was ultimately developed with Team DSM to give the pro riders a pure speed advantage at race pace, while delivering improved high-speed stability, the added control of disc braking, and still maintaining flexibility within an integrated setup to accommodate individual athletes’ unique fit requirements to put the power down when they are racing against the clock. 2023 Scott Plasma RC TT gen 7 time trial bike
all c. Scott, photo by Chris Auld Scott says their primary goal with the new Plasma RC TT was simple: “ build the fastest bike we’ve ever made .” But not just the fastest Scott time trial bike ever, they wanted the new Plasma to be the fastest disc brake-equipped TT bike that you can buy. That benchmark was a bit harder, and sent the Scott engineers back to the drawing board – and back into the wind tunnel – as they set out to redesign the Plasma platform and implement every incremental tweak they could to minimize the bike’s aero drag.
But it seems like it worked out, as we had a sneak peek at the new bike with Scope’s latest wheels last summer in the Tour de France. How did […]
