Scale RC Super Gravel: Dangerholm is back with a hardtail MTB for gravel
The bike geek and genius Gustav Gullholm, also known as Dangerholm, has come up with a new project. He is returning to gravel and for this he has once again opted for a hardtail mountain bike frame, that of a SCOTT Scale, with the new Scale Rigid fork. That together with a unique set-up has given birth to a Scale RC Super Gravel weighing only 7.67kg.
Dangerholm's Scale RC Super Gravel
Gustav Gullholm himself begins the presentation of his new creation with these words: "There’s this joke going around that some modern gravel bikes are becoming so capable that they’re starting to resemble 90’s mountain bikes, and especially so if fitted with a flat bar. But would it really be such a bad thing?"

The Scale RC Super Gravel is built on a Scale RC World Cup frame, the latest version introduced in 2023, made of HMX carbon fiber. At the front is the new SCOTT Scale Rigid fork, which integrates perfectly with the frame and offers the opportunity to bring a mountain bike as close as possible to a gravel bike.
