With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.
Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!
With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.
So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.
Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.
The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

The SCOTT Addict Team Issue comes equipped with an HMX Carbon Fiber frame and fork that weigh in at just 790/300g When there is a long day full of climbs ahead of Team Orica GreenEDGE or IAM Cycling, the Addict Team issue, with its light weight, is their first choice. With the addition of high-end Carbon components, the Team Issue results in one strong and efficient racing featherweight. Due to popular demand, Scott released this year’s Addict Team Issue as a IAM Cycling Team replica!
You may find plenty of talk regarding different geometry of road bikes with some suited to racing and others suited to endurance or sportive.
In general there is one key difference and that is that the race bike will have a lower front end give more aerodynamic position where as the endurance bike will be higher offering a more comfortable position on the bike.
Many manufactures have now taken their designs even further by producing frames not only based geometry to suits the different styles but also changing the make up of the frames to suit. For example the Scott Addict is a road race bike. This has a race geometry but also the frame is designed to be stiffer, lighter and extremely responsive. On the other side you have the Scott Solace which has an endurance geometry. This has also been designed to be light and responsive but it's also been designed so areas of the frame flex offering more comfort to the rider over long distances.
The key when deciding which bike to choose is to first think about what you want from the bike. If comfort is paramount then choose an endurance bike. If speed is top of the list then choose a race bike.
