Addict frames - have they changed much?
Moderator: robbosmans
I have a 2008 Scott Addict - ISP, black with yellow decals and accents - which I think was called the Team or LTD model?
Does my frame differ much from the newer models? It seems like they got new graphics for 2009/2010 and a totally new look for 2011.
Have they made the newer frames even lighter? I have seen people mention HMX and HMF carbon but I don't know which is considered better.

No. Just different graphics and they no longer offer the ISP version.

It was more a fad than anything that added any function or saved any weight.
I can imagine a normal seatpost would generate a lot less headache for Scott than having your LBS hacking at frames.
Beyond the ISP they haven't really changed and are still great frames.

- Zipp rims will break if you look at them too hard
- R-Sys wheels will spontaneously explode
- The ZG crankset will never, ever exist
- Everyone needs Lightweights, even if they're fat and old
- Parts actually made of metal are SO 10 years ago

Scott seemed to produce less frames with the higher grade hmx carbon fibre at the end of the addict period. I guess yours is hmx so it is probably still really light even compared with todays frames.
I have an Addict CX RC made from hmx fibre and it really is a great frame.
Some of the later Addicts might have pressfit bb and yours maybe bsa?
