In the near future, round tube competition bikes will be abandoned in favor
of a fuselage more suitable for any situation a rider may encounter on
the road, battling the elements. The elements are always against you, the
wind is trying to slow you, the climb is trying to break you, riders today
need an advantage against these elements AND the competition.
The Perfect Bike takes into account three MAJOR variables; Stiffness,
Weight and Aerodynamics. A combination of the three makes for the most
complete balance of attributes for transforming rider input into acceleration.
For fewer watts, the rider can maintain the same average speed,
keeping them fresh for whatever effort is most important. The advantages
span across sprinting, climbing and overall stage winning disciplines found
in road racing.
THE OUTCOME: F01 AERO TECHNOLOGY
F01 Technology is based on the theory that a partial airfoil shape without the trailing
edge can produce the same aerodynamic advantage as a traditional foil shape. Modern
foil shapes are largely based on models and ratios created for airplanes by the National
Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA), but because bicycles attain speeds far
less than those of airplanes, these ratios do not necessarily apply to bikes. SCOTT Aero
Science engineers have thus developed F01 Technology to create unique, bicycle specific
tube shapes which maximize aerodynamic efficiency at lower air speeds.

SCOTT Aero Science is a dedicated group of engineers within the SCOTT organization who, while
committed to the Scientific Method, are charged with the task of innovating the most aerodynamic
bicycles possible. They hypothesize beyond empirical thinking, experiment with new techniques to
prove these hypotheses, and always produce data that can be reliably replicated. To prove SCOTT
Aero Science theories, they employ CFdesign software to test concepts virtually before validating
designs in the wind tunnel with quantifiable data. Bike designs are additionally tested with mannequins,
actual riders, and a number of other environmental variables to ensure that test results
accurately reflect real world riding conditions.
Early flow separation
= High drag
Late flow separation
= Limited drag
Forced flow separation
= Engineered separation point mimics
a larger aerofoil, minimizing drag
