Scott says

Weight is perhaps the most important factor in choosing a race hardtail, and thanks to its CR1 technology, the Scale still sets the benchmark in this category at just 980 grams. Race proven geometry provides quick, reliable handling, while chainstays with ample tire clearance and full length cable housing ensure performance even in the muddiest conditions. It's the Scott-Swisspower riders Nino Schurter's and Florian Vogel's racing weapon.
