Contrail 10

The Scott Contrail 10 sits at the pinnacle of Scott's Contrail hardtail range, delivering the ultimate blend of value, trail capability, and durable performance. Building on the modern trail geometry shared across the lineup, the Contrail 10 upgrades the front suspension to a plush RockShox Judy Silver TK Coil fork with 100mm of travel and hydraulic lockout. Available in a sleek Black or crisp Cumulus White finish, this flagship build trims weight down to under 14 kg, making it a fast, agile option for riders looking to conquer technical singletrack, forest loops, and steep climbs.

Paired with a durable 1x11 Shimano CUES LinkGlide drivetrain and proven Shimano MT200 hydraulic brakes, the Contrail 10 provides genuine mountain bike performance out of the box without requiring immediate aftermarket upgrades.

Key Highlights

• RockShox Judy Suspension Upgrade: Stepping up from the Suntour forks on the lower Contrail tiers, the RockShox Judy Silver TK coil fork provides smoother damping, external rebound tuning, and a lockout dial to firm up the front end for efficient climbing.

• Full Shimano Braking Confidence: Equipped with benchmark Shimano MT200 hydraulic brakes and a larger 180mm front rotor, this bike delivers predictable, one-finger stopping power with lower maintenance requirements than third-party brake systems.

• Shimano CUES 1x11 LinkGlide Drivetrain: The single 30T chainring and wide 11-50T cassette provide a massive 455% gear range. Shimano’s LinkGlide sprockets are engineered with thicker teeth to resist wear under high-torque shifting, extending component life significantly.

• Weight Reduction: Weighing in at 13.98 kg, the Contrail 10 drops noticeable weight compared to lower models in the series, resulting in quicker acceleration and livelier handling through tight corners.

• Trail-Ready Geometry & Rubber: Featuring a relaxed 67-degree head angle and high-volume 2.4" Maxxis Rekon Race tires, the frame delivers stability on loose descents while maintaining low rolling resistance on flat dirt paths.
