    2009 GT Force 3.0 Mountain Bike (Cross Country)

    The 2009 GT Force 3.0 Mountain Bike is a cross country beast. The 2009 GT Force 3.0 Mountain Bike features the same GT 6061 Monocoque aluminum frame with Independent Drivetrain suspension that you will find on the Force 1.0 and Force 2.0. Giving you a full 6 inches of travel to work with this frame will take you anywhere on the mountain. The idea with the Force frame is to be strong and stiff while saving the weight for the dumbbells in the gym.

    All Mountain isn't just a phrase with the Force 3.0 either, it features a SR MAG 32 rear shock and the Rock Shox BAR 2.1 fork to give you a full 6 inches of travel so you can take the proverbial bull by the horns. Both ends of the suspension feature rebound dampening adjustability.

    To match a frame so well thought out GT put Deore components on this stallion. What isn't Shimano Deore is equally as durable and affordable, WTB/DT Swiss wheels, GT branded and backed handlebar/stem/steatpost, and WTB with Kenda Navegal tires round out the components for a stellar package.

    Put all this together and the GT Force 3.0 truly is a force to be reckoned with. At $1199.95 the GT Force 3.0 is a killer bike at a wicked good price.

    Excited For Cyclocross Season

    At Randall Scott we love to see the combination of beer and bikes. Whether it's the fixie kids and their PBR, the roadies and their more flavorful choices or, like Geoff Kabush, the Cyclocross nuts and their Chimay. This photo is taken at the starting line of a race, yeah, those cyclocross guys are the baddest of the bad.


    While the peak of cyclocross season is still a ways away we are very excited about it. Tommaso has the Bestia available right now with word of another carbon concoction on the way.



    Get out on your bikes and start training now because we guarantee that this 'cross season is going to be the biggest yet. If this photo from last year is any indication the Tommaso Cyclocross bikes are keepers of the sport despite any conditions.

    Tommaso "Steps It's Game Up"

    We have a slew of new Tommaso Bicycles available for purchase. With new and existing bikes ranging from $299 to $1999 we are certain we have a Tommaso that is what you are looking for at a killer price. The new bikes are nothing short of spectacular, many of the new models are upgraded models of the bikes you guys have been pushing to the limits. Tommaso is now allowing you to push that limit a little bit further.


    When Shimano launched the new Dura-Ace 7900 component series we went to work on a frame that would match the dependability and beauty of the top of the line Shimano components. The Superleggera is the result of two years of testing, riding and racing. Tour de France riders depend on Dura-Ace so we knew what a pro rider would expect from a carbon frame and fork and we found it! The Superleggera accelerates, climbs and descends as if there was a yellow jersey and podium waiting at the end of each ride. The FSA Gossamer Pro 53/39 crank, Mavic wheels and Hutchinson tires add to the luster of this amazing package.

    High end carbon bike meets Shimano’s new Ultegra 6700 components. Tommaso’s High Modulus 12K Carbon Monocoque TRS (Tommaso Racing Series) frame is paired up with the improved Shimano Ultegra 6700 components for a stunning and winning combination of looks and performance. FSA Omega cranks, Shimano wheels and Hutchinson tires bring it all together. The Aggraziato is the answer if performance is the question!

    Just when they perfect the Ninja you would think Tommaso would let it be…no, they went and made it meaner and blacker. The chromoly steel Tommaso Ninja Pro comes with half-wrapped pure track bars, black chain, black nipples, a freewheel and a fixed cog on a flip-flop hub, sleek black Tommaso TRS saddle and a sexy new blacked-out crank. The Ninja is built to be stealth but good luck not getting noticed on this bad boy.

    Hot on the heels of the super popular Ninja, Old School and Tricked Out comes the Tommaso Digger. With the bold black steel frame and gold components getting noticed won’t be a problem. The Gold “Digger” is what happens when function meets fashion. Go fixie or free with a flip flop rear hub. The bling of the gold track bars, gold stem, gold front hub and gold crank will have your heart pounding before the first fixed pedal stroke. The performance and value of this bike is 14 karat!

    Race tested fast carbon bike meets Shimano Ultegra 6700 meets Ironman meets finish line! This High Modulus 12K Carbon Monocoque will have the competition shaking in their tri-shoes. The development of this lightning fast, feather light machine was based on one objective: Going Fast! The Tommaso Aereo is the result of hours of training and racing. The result is a comfortable, stable and fast machine with speed in its fiber…12K carbon fiber. The rear wheel is protected behind a carbon fairing and the integrated seat mast stiffens the frame and offers two positions. Add in the FSA Omega cranks, Alex wheels and Hutchinson tires, Shimano Ultegra components and you have a bike worthy of the sport’s most grueling events.

    The Tommaso Product Manager competed at Ironman Louisville to make sure this bike was perfect. Well… 140.6 miles later he had his answer…and a nice medal. This High Modulus 12K Carbon Monocoque lightning fast bike means business on the road. Everything about the bike is designed to move forward-FAST! The sleek carbon fork and steer is perfectly matched to the lightweight and stiff course eating aero frame. The rear wheel is protected behind a carbon fairing and the integrated seat mast stiffens the frame and offers two positions. Add in the top of the line Shimano Dura-Ace components and you have a bike worthy of the sport’s most grueling bike courses.

    Kuota K-Factor Road Bike An Additional 30% Off - For A Limited Time

    While the weather is clearing up and the riding season looms directly around the corner we are running a pre-season sale on road bikes. All road bikes priced over $599 get 30% off, just use the code HAPPY in the checkout. This sale won't last long so hurry and pick up a new road bike. May we suggest the Kuota K-Factor...

    Kuota makes some seriously nice bikes. Here in Boulder, CO you can find a consistent stream of Kuotas if you head north out of the city on 36. Seriously, between Boulder and Estes Park you will find the true badasses of the Boulder cycling scene and a good number of those dedicated pedalers are pumping away on a Kuota. Rightfully so, Kuota is a brand with a great reputation for making a quality product. They have a roster of professionals nearing the count of 30 and they continue to push the boundaries of technology used in carbon road bikes.

    We at Randall Scott like Kuota for the simple fact that their bikes perform. In testing we have found that their bikes are thrilling to ride and can handle the long rides and wild descents that Boulder than throw at a bike.


    We have worked closely with Kuota to bring you an undeniable deal on the Kuota K-Factor Road Bike from 2008. We only have the bike is a size XL which is a 58.5cm bike. Don't be frightened by the designation of XL, this bike will fit anyone from 6'0" - 6'-4" extremely well. This bike features the K-Factor frame which is commonly used in triathlons but when decked out with the road spec'd Ultegra SL components we have on there it rides like a dream on the road. Swap out a few components (handlebars and stem most notably) and you are ready for a triathlon. This bike is a great cross-over if your training for a triathlon, use it to train, then use it in the event.

    Spring Fever Has Hit Randall Scott


    Well, it's now April and while everyone is clamoring to come up with the end-all joke to "get" everyone with the Randall Scott crew is doing some clamoring of a different type. In fact, we are clamoring in a number of different ways.

    First, is the weather. We are located in beautiful Boulder, Colorado where it hit nearly 80 degrees the other day. For us this means one thing; bike rides! Our bathroom has become a changing room for people to get kitted up and go for a lunch ride or a post-work ride. Everyone here rides what we sell so we have a lot of Tommasos and Kuotas getting out on the roads.

    The second thing we are clamoring over is new inventory. We have had an influx is delicious bikes over the last week. While we in some new Tommaso bikes like the Bestia, Coltello, Volo, and Velocita with SRAM Force, we have also received a few new brands and models of existing brands.

    We just got in mountain bikes from a number of different brands; Airborne, Mongoose, GT, and BAMF Bikes.

    Airborne is a new brand who makes some seriously great looking bikes. To match their appearance they are backed with solid frame design and component spec; go ahead and calculate what you're getting for the price, you might think your math is wrong but it's not, these are just a great deal.

    We just got in the 2009 Mongoose Boot'R Team which is the top end downhill bike from Mongoose that is co-designed by their pro riders. The thing is flat out amazing and we are selling it at 30% off, you won't find a better downhill bike at that price anywhere. We also got a number of their 2010 bikes in stock. We still have 2009 Mongoose bikes in stock at a reduced prices so be sure to check those out.

    We got 3 different models of the GT Force Mountain Bike. The GT Force 1.0, Force 3.0, and Force Carbon Expert. The Force Carbon Expert is one of the coolest bikes we've seen in a while featuring a full carbon frame with Independent Drivetrain technology. These are some seriously nice Cross Country bikes with 6" of travel.

    Lastly we got in some BAMF Bikes. This is also a new brand and we are excited to carry a brand that is really innovating the way people experience cycling. These bikes come with all blacked out frames with minimal logos. You also get 4 decal sheets with different color decals so you can make the bike your own by creating a look that is uniquely you. You will get more bike for the dollar with BAMF compared to any other company out there, just look at the specs. So far we have some 26" bikes and 29ers with more on the way. Keep an eye on these guys for some seriously cool stuff.

    Sortie 2 Makes Friends and Foes alike Eat Dirt

    The 2008 Diamondback Sortie 2 is a whopping 50% off at our website right now. The Sortie 2 is an all mountain beast ready to help you conquer any part of the peak you decide to go "Napoleon" on. The Sortie 2 is a 4-inch travel bike that specializes in dominating trails. The frame features Rapid Response geometry and the coveted Knuckle Box suspension design so you can feel confident taking the ups, downs, and banks of any terrain.

    Tubing on the Sortie was just as carefully selected as the components with the ultra light (yet surprisingly strong) tubes nicely complementing the Shimano Deore components. The front fork is a Rock Shox Recon XC (w/ Rebound Dampening Adjustment) and the rear is the Fox Float R (w/ Rebound Dampening Adjustment and Propedal Platform).

    Technical specs aside this bike is made to be light, nimble, and durable. If you're looking for a bike to make your friends eat dirt then definitely give this Sortie 2 your attention.

    PS - Check out the frame on this guy, color doesn't usually matter to much to me but that blue is a thing of beauty.

    Finally! A Tri Bike You Can Afford

    Tommaso recently sent us a few new bikes they are producing. We got a cyclocross bike that was tested by the VeloNews cyclocross team member and Tommaso Product Manager T.R. We also got a new tri(athlon) bike that was tested by Iron Man and stellar triathlete T.R. Yeah, same dude.

    Needless to say Tommaso walks the walk, or in this case rides the rides.

    Tommaso is also reaching out to their community to sponsor local athletes with bikes for testing, training, and competing. They recently announced their signing on triathelete James Hadley, and had some nice raw photos posted to their Facebook Fan Page.

    James will be riding the Tommaso Sixth Sense, a full carbon tri bike that was tested in the Iron Man and is the big brother to our recent arrival the Tommaso Coltello Tri Bike. The Coltello is the aluminum version and was created to be an affordable bike to get people into triathlons. All too often people can't afford a road bike to train and another bike specifically for the race, if that is the case with you then the Coltello is the solution. The Coltello is also great for those doing triathlons without vision of the podium, the Sixth Sense is a bike for those looking to medal.

    Tommaso Aggraziato Road Bike is gonna knock you out!

    The Tommaso Aggraziato Road Bike is a 3 punch knockout of a deal.

    The first hit is the Tommaso Carbon frame. This frame is the same frame that is used on the Tommaso Superleggera which VeloNews and numerous customers have raved about. Tommaso uses a compact geometry and detailed tubing lengths per frame size. This ensures that the rider gets the lightest, strongest and best performing and fitting frame for the dollar. The compact design and geometry place the rider in the optimum position for steady handling and comfort. The Aggraziato has a carbon fork to absorb he high-frequency buzz from the road. This means more miles of comfort and better handling.

    The second hit is the Shimano Ultegra component build on the Aggraziato. Shimano Ultegra components are the perfect combination of weight and price. To complement the Ultegra derailleurs, shifters, and brake levers is the FSA Gossamer Compact Crankset and Tommaso TRS saddle, seatpost, handlebar, and stem. Throw in the Hutchison tires and FSA headset to complete the build of a bike that is supreme.

    The third and final hit to make this bike a knockout is the price. We know you won't find a better deal on a similar bike. Compare this bike to the Trek Madone 5.1 or Specialized Tarmac Expert SL and you will see that you are getting the same bike for less than half the price. Tommaso stands behind their work and offers a lifetime warranty on the frame. We also will ship this bike directly to your door for FREE.

    We have limited quantities left so grab this deal before your luck runs out.
