Built for utility, Scott SUB 10 bike provides a sporty, fun ride that nimbly navigates urban and suburban roads and paths, plus the hydraulic disc brakes provide powerful braking in any weather.

Butted 6061 aluminum frame offers a sturdy, nimble ride for navigating city streets; flat handlebar creates a comfortable, upright riding position
Shimano Alfine internally geared rear hub provides 8 smooth-shifting speeds and is remarkably maintenance free compared to conventional cassette systems
Shimano RapidFire trigger shifter quickly snaps through the 8 gears; paired with its 20T rear cog, the Alfine system has a gear range equivalent to a 12 - 38T cassette
Sure-stopping Shimano hydraulic disc brakes work effectively in all weather conditions
Continental Sport Contact tires offer great all-around rolling performance and puncture protection for urban use
Platform pedals let you pedal with any shoes you please
Frame also features eyelets for fenders and rear rack (sold separately)
Specs on the Scott SUB 10 bike are subject to change

After its initial break-in period you might notice your bicycle performing less responsively than the day you brought it home. Not to worry, this is typical of all new bicycles and simply reflects that cables have stretched or their housings have seated themselves into final position. To keep running at peak performance, all REI bicycles come with a FREE warranty tune-up, which should be accomplished between the first 100-200 miles of riding or after the first two months if you're accumulating miles less quickly. Contact your nearest REI bike shop for details and an appointment for this important service.

Imported.

Comments about Scott SUB 10 Bike - 2011:

The Sub 10 by Scott is a beautiful bike with outstanding components. The paint job rivals most high end autos in fact it is so nice it is hard to park. It is a beautiful bike! The components are all Shimano breaks and gears. The Rotar on the dis-break must be at least as thick as a half dollar. The crank and the rear hub are both Shimano Alfine. The only thing wrong with this bike is the cost. Once you get the nerve to take it home there is no buyers remorse. The bike fully loaded wit the urban kit (rack and fenders) weigh in at 26 pounds. The only thing I had to upgrade was the seat which had to go. It is more appropriate for a road bike. The B-17 has been my only upgrade in 6 months. The bike is however slow due to the 8 gears and not a lot of people will be willing to pay for only 8 speeds but the bike rides like a dream. It is very quite and you can get a good workout. Oh yeah it is to hard to find.

Comments about Scott SUB 10 Bike - 2011:

I was looking for a bike that I could ride around town, possibly up into the mountains around Santa Cruz, and occasionally on trails. The Sub10 fits the bill perfectly. No derailleurs, no grease on the chain, no squealing brakes. Just quiet, reasonably efficient cycling. I am not convinced that the Shimano hub is ultimately efficient, but I really like the ability to shift a single lever and run through a 300% range of gears. It's also helpful, dare I say it, to be able to shift at a standstill. While I sort of wish I had waited until this bike had the 11 speed hub, I am actually quite satisfied.

The brakes are extremely powerful, and since I am a pretty big guy, I appreciate their stopping ability. They are virtually silent, and have a nice sold pull to the levers.

The wheels are also nice: not too tricked out to be practical, and 100psi tires that look like they can take some abuse without sacrificing efficiency.

So far I have added a simple combination lock, a bottle mount, and some plastic toe clips. I want to keep it simple, as light as possible, and elegant. Everyone who sees the bike comments on it's good looks. I highly recommend it.
