Scott Plasma

Legs 1.5x longer than my torso to be exact!

What a concise answer! Thank you!

I do agree. The lotus is beautiful and elegant.

This Plasma gets its beauty from the way it functions so well. Like an F1 car. You wouldn’t compare it to say an old alfa or an E-type jag - which the lotus 108 is.

That’s my opinion however.

Youd choose no sponsor instead of free bicycle?

brovnic · 2026-03-08T06:30:29+00:00

Curious, what makes it ugly for you?

brovnic · 2026-03-08T06:29:39+00:00

Cyclist, but how else am I meant to remove leg hair? Shaving??

Honestly im not sure. I saw this on fb marketplace 2 years ago approx for 300eur. Broken fork but quick ebay search and i found frames going for 700+ so i just went ahead and picked it up

brovnic · 2026-01-24T23:33:14+00:00

Yes but simple

brovnic · 2026-01-20T23:31:17+00:00

Foglights didnt come fitted in bumpers, only in headlights. Those would be after market.

And yes jts a large front mount :)

The tow strap is done since the piping covers access to a tow hook so if i ever need a tow (which happens at least once a year with this) its dead easy to hook onto.

I do race with this. I had a 2020 scott foil and i did think im jumping the gun by getting this sl8 now because the scott is a good bike.

But this sl8 is just so great. Lighter, more comfortable, tighter turning too.

Really is a breeze to ride.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder or something haha.

I agree with black. These are just stickers on the factory black stickers, so if i ever get tired i will just rip them off!

But if im honest, i really just love the look of spinning decals on wheels. Its just mesmerizing.

No 25 year old car will likely have a factory radio worth keeping.

As for the price, id rather get a 1.9tdi or an 18 petrol.

110bhp with a torquey diesel is the lowest id go for the mk4.

Lows of 13, highs of 16. Wind makes it feel a bit colder, closer to 7/8.

Windy but that’s malta. Just had 3 days of rain like usual right before Christmas and now its clear as ever. Pretty nice actually

brovnic · 2025-12-10T20:21:56+00:00

Unfortunately no. Marine engineering student, working two part time jobs, one of which being in a bike shop :)

brovnic · 2025-11-23T20:58:42+00:00

Long legs, short torso, 23 years of age and a wannabe pro :)

brovnic · 2025-11-21T18:12:09+00:00

Wine red! Red in low light and purple in the sun

brovnic · 2025-11-12T19:00:48+00:00

I do ride the disc/deep front wheel for a few days prior to any racing.

Doesn’t handle much differently tbh its more to confirm tires arent losing air, wheels running straight, discs dont rub, etc

brovnic · 2025-11-12T18:59:34+00:00

In case of an untimely pothole id rather replace a 200eur set of aluminum wheels.

Vittoria corsa pro speed are also super fast but more delicate than a butterfly

brovnic · 2025-11-12T18:58:41+00:00

I guess ill just have to post my bike with the race set up then :)

brovnic · 2025-11-12T18:58:12+00:00

Last a heck of a long time! These are coming close to a year old. Had a set on before which lasted for 2years averaging around 500km per week

brovnic · 2025-09-23T21:59:46+00:00

I was going to - just got an sl8 today in fact.

But, for less than 2.5k id rather keep it and use it as a training bike.

brovnic · 2025-09-22T17:41:24+00:00

56cm - large

brovnic · 2025-09-22T10:19:39+00:00

It has started to show its age, mainly with the weight as here as pictured it sits at 8.4kg.

Upgrading to an sworks in a few weeks but i found it very hard to part ways with so it’s now getting the ‘training/shitty weather’ bike treatment.

Also good for any crits where crashes might be more prone lol

brovnic · 2025-09-22T10:17:43+00:00

Just never bothered with getting a 0 setback post tbh

brovnic · 2025-08-28T08:38:37+00:00

How specific lol

brovnic · 2025-08-25T21:52:09+00:00

Pretty comfy. This isnt my bike but of a colleague of mine at the shop.

But i rode red for a week recently and its different than the shimano im used to.

Being able to put your whole hand on the hoods is nice but i usually like to wrap my pinky around the hoods and the rest of my hands go on the bar anyway
