Factor Bikes, the team’s long-term equipment supplier, has ended its partnership with the team, according to Daniel Benson’s Cycling Substack. Official details remain scarce, but Scott Bikes have reportedly already arrived at the team’s headquarters in Girona, Spain.


While the report says that Scott bikes have already arrived at headquarters, it is unclear whether or not Scott Bikes will serve as a lead sponsor or as an equipment supplier.

For those of us who know nothing about these things, how do Scott bikes (TT and regular) rank in comparison to Factor and the bikes that the other WT teams use?

not an expert either, but Mieke Kröger still races her ten year old Scott TT bike, saying it's the best she ever got. So at least in that regard, they seem to have some know how. Guys like Arensman, Edmondson, Eeckhoff etc also used to have better TT results during their Scott years at DSM.
