Get the Scale..for racing on singletrack doing laps in UK is going to be more fun than a harder to handle and accelerate 29"

Redtwo that's a seriously good bike for racing.
Pete, I would always recommend a 29er for xc racing but it does all depend on the course.

Don't know if you've found it cheaper but

£1820 strikes me a bit of a bargain if you want a large.

Received the bike today. Not weighted it yet but first impressions are good compared to my current trail bike. Small scratch on the frame and stem from the bike shop i guess. I wonder whether to rise this with them as this was the last bike available?
Its size L and it feels slightly big.Maybe a shorter stem would rectify this.

My scott scale 970 had to have adjustments, that long stem was the first to be changed along with riser bars and various others bits :) lovely looking bike but i do think Scott could be a bit more exciting with the decals and paint jobs.
