I don't think its to disguise e-bikes, Scott in particular just love having ultra light bikes, look at the Spark (obviously needs to be ultra light) their design is just carrying over, large tubes = light. As AndehM also points out, it enables downtube storage. The issue is rock strikes, and with thin walls you get a single error during layup and its an instant cracked frame. It would tolerable if the frames were made in the US or Europe, where quality control is much higher, but we all know the amount of duds being produced in Asia, it just...

LOL... " Also interesting is the fact that the handlebars of the team bikes did not have a typical Scott trigger with 492 different levers, but only a single lever for the seat post."

There should be a rule that once a rumour expands into facts talk, it should get its own thread.

This was true of last-gen shocks from 10 years ago. Back then compression damping was too primitive and few people put coils on frames with less than 170mm of travel anyways. Now they perform excellent. We can go back and forth on the hows and the whys, but ultimately it comes down to inductive vs deductive reasoning: go out and ride a 150mm enduro bike with a coil and a flat leverage curve. If the coil is of decent quality and tuned properly, it will ride very well, and better for most enthusiast/expert riders than an air.

They do what spherical bearings do, reduce side loading of the shock. And they do this with standard 15mm eyelet size.

I’ve just noticed that Danny Hart is racing the production 215 in Andorra, while during the rest of the season he was riding the prototype. Does anyone know why he would do this?
