Here it is, my First Ride of the all new 2024 @scottsports Ransom RC 900. This is SCOTT’s latest ‘Enduro’ offering and is completely redesigned to be aggressive, confidence inspiring and all round fun! I took out to some local trails to test it, get it all setup and have some fun on… I was completely blown away by how capable it was!!
Super stoked on this #NewBikeDay learn more about the #SCOTTRansom here: https://bit.ly/SCOTTRansom2024
Some FAQ about my Ransom:
– I’m riding a size large and I’m 189cm (a 6 foot 2).
– The cable integration is easy to install and work on (I mean see for yourself)
– The bike has a 170mm of travel front and rear
– The shock is super easy to access thanks to the huge space in the frame
– There is now storage for a tube and multi tool in the frame
Any questions leave them down below, thanks for watching and see you on the trails for the first ride of it.
Scotty

80% the rider 20% the bike
Well if it isn't Scotty Flyland absolutely soaring through those laps! 🦅Happy to see you like the Ransom, it clearly likes you back!
Why another bike? You already have so many "dream bikes"…
Awesome bike and riding. What side of Dunkeld is that? those trails look wild!
Very crappy bike. I hate it!
Wooo woooo !!!!!, you wear gloves now Scotty 😂😂😂
Very nice first ride, and as Always, awsome bike , lucky Scotty 👍👍👍
Super vidéo !!!!!
Another great watch !! broke my right colar bone on that berm coming of dont send it ….5th run , last one of the day 😂 pitmedden is great fun !!! I am running an eeb now,pole voima, but i have to say , I've watched ypure self and loamwolf reviews on the scott ransom and it looks incredible 🔥
great video! You were quite ripping on those trails. As a dedicated Genius rider I have to know, how does the trac loc compare to the twin loc, upon which I'm utterly dependent?? Any thoughts on running the bike as a mullet? More videos please 😉
This rig is soooo clean
POV footage is nuts!
My local 🤘
Awesome bike lovit
Godamn, one of the most proprietary and integrated bikes I’ve ever seen! 4 levers on the left grip!
Awesome bike. Looks very agile. Quick question…can you link your helmet and glasses pls 🙏 so hard to find scott gear online. Thank you.
Hi Scotty. I currently have the Scott Scale 930 hardtail. Thinking of adding a dropper post. Do you recommend this? Or should i look to upgrading to the 930 spark? Any feedback would be grateful 🙏
Scotty, when are you going to review the new Scott Voltage eRIDE? As dedicated Scott Genius rider this eMTB version looks like it hits all the right notes
Where is this?
compared to my 2020 Ransom (Tuned also with 170mm travel) this pig of a bike is about 2 kg heavier and $2 k more expensive. The crazy complex and heavy six bar suspension is a ticking time bomb. Yeah, this may be a great ride initially but wait a couple of years when you need to take apart the suspension using special tools including dentistry mirrors. If the new Ransom is the answer, then what was the question? I would maybe pay this money if the bike had gotten 2kg lighter but instead it has become 2kg heavier! What kind of enduro rider really wishes to hide the shock? If anything, it would make more sense to protect the fork. I did manage to get scratches on fork stanchions but never had a problem with my rear shock. Objectively: this is heavy, complex and expensive pig. Scott must be desperate to try to find a new user base. Maybe they are successful provided the unique nature of the hidden shock design. I have yet to find current Ransom riders looking forward to this mess. And the bike mechanics fixing the current Genius and Sparks using the same technology are not exactly enthused about this new design. The only good thing for them is that any repair related to shock and headsets take much longer and so they can charge more. But finally, subjectively speaking, the hardtail eBike optics are not doing much for me either. No more Scott for me.
I have a 2019 Ransom Tuned and still love every bit of my bike. I bet this new version is just as sick or I would expect “better”. The internal real shock is pretty cool. Beautiful bike you have there.
How do I get the bike. USA nothing available till August 🤡
What camera are you using now? Gopro or dji
Gorgeous enduro bike!
I just did my first test ride on this bike and my mind was blown. I almost don't want to love it as much as I do with the internal headset routing. How bad are those to work with?
Absolutly amazing!
But long time no new stuff?😢
Is the channel still alive?
Greetz from Bavaria an keep on:)
Please keep uploading, i am waiting!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't like the new ransom, its ugly. People might think i'm riding an ebike when i'm not.
What I'd like to know is when will Scott release a new E-ransom ?
