Kate Courtney is choosing to leave Specialized - she would be a fool at her age not to move over to Scott and learn/train with Nino. Those who do not follow Cross, Nino is the Sagan (if not more) of that world and for her to go and learn from the CX god is an opportunity she couldn't pass.
(I meant MTB and XC)
I had said this in a different thread but from an overall longevity and presence standpoint Scott in the US is really a small player. They do make some nice XC bikes. They never have bikes in US inventory and most dealers are frustrated in trying to do business with them because of lack of backup inventory. If you want a Scott bike place an order and be prepared to wait an eternity....
Rule number 1 of marketing is if you are going to get a customer excited to buy a product you might want to have the product availible to purchase.
