Vélo SCOTT Plasma Premium

Long distance triathletes spend several hours on their bike before switching to the running segment. While aerodynamics and ergonomics are key factors for a fast and efficient bike split, nutrition and hydration are essential to maintain a high pace during both the bike and running legs. With this in mind, the engineering team developed a sophisticated storage system that stands above the rest due to its high degree of usability, while not hampering the aerodynamics of the bike nor the ergonomics of the rider.

Plasma 5 Aero Drink

The aero drink features a clip-on connection that ensures a firm fixation to the stem and allows for installation and removal of the bottle in a matter of seconds. The hydration system offers a low-weight body made from dishwasher-safe material with a large filling opening. A smooth bottle-frame intersection lowers aerodynamic drag due to optimized airflow recirculation behind the bottle.

Storage Box

The storage box features a removable divider and sufficient space for up to 8 energy bars. The rubber top cap grants easy access while drain holes at the bottom of the box prevent water accumulation. The solid body shell ensures an optimized airflow while offering enough knee clearance for the rider. The standard 64mm assembly bolt mount ensures interchangeability with a standard bottle cage.

The F01-X230 parametric airfoil was specifically developed for the Plasma 5. This airfoil concept features a set of variable parameters that can be modified according to the airflow characteristics in each of the frameset’s aero zones. Whether it’s clean, uninterrupted airflow meeting the frame or airflow that has been disturbed by components or moving parts of the rider’s body, with the novel airfoil concept the Plasma 5 has been drastically improved with regards to aerodynamic performance.

DI2 (Digital Integrated Intelligence), les avantages de la transmission électrique : par une simple pression sur les boutons, changer de vitesses devient plus intuitif, rapide et sans effort. Le contrôle est au bout de vos doigts ! Entre autres bénéfices, la fourchette du dérailleur avant s’ajuste automatiquement en fonction de la ligne de chaîne, et le montage ainsi que les réglages d’indexation ont facilités.

While a standard Shimano direct-mount rear brake has been properly integrated below the bottom bracket, a proprietary front brake was developed. The low design and aerodynamic shape ensure compatibility with the front brake cover, while an improved leverage ratio and a rigid construction assure reliable and consistent braking power. The fork features two interfaces that allow for the installation of any direct mount or standard brake caliper.

Alors que nous utilisions déjà la fibre composite certifiée HMF sur tous nos modèles de vélos composites haut de gamme, nous avons perfectionné notre matière HMF conventionnelle. Cette nouvelle fibre, produite en exclusivité pour Scott, offre 20 % de rigidité supplémentaire et est utilisée dans toutes les zones qui requièrent une rigidité accrue. Cette nouvelle matière nous permet également de réduire le poids et d'améliorer les caractéristiques de conduite. NET est l'acronyme de Naked External Tube set (ensemble de tubes externes nus) ; le cadre perd sa couche cosmétique extérieure, ce qui permet de gagner encore un peu plus en légèreté.
