Overview

The Scott Patron ST 900 RC is a mountain bike built for off-road trails and rough terrain, offering strong motor support with 600W power and 85Nm of torque to help tackle hills and uneven ground. Its front and rear suspension, combined with a carbon fiber frame, provides good comfort on rough roads and a solid feel for trail riding. The removable battery adds flexibility for charging and storage, though the bike's charging time is notably slow and its battery efficiency is lower than expected for the size, which may limit range on longer rides. At 24.6kg, it's heavier than average, making it less easy to lift, but its overall performance and trail control make it a capable choice for serious off-road enthusiasts.

Best For

✓

This mountain e-bike should suit riders who prioritize off-road performance, confident hill climbing, and responsive assistance on rough terrain. Its high battery capacity and strong motor power make it well-suited for extended trail rides and challenging climbs, while the front and rear suspension improve comfort on uneven surfaces. The removable battery adds flexibility for charging away from the bike, which is especially useful for riders who travel to remote trails. Riders who value a natural and responsive power delivery, combined with reliable braking and control, will likely appreciate this bike’s setup.

Who Should Avoid It

Scott Patron ST 900 RC

View deal

The Scott Patron ST 900 RC is listed at £8,699, which places it at the higher end of the price spectrum when compared with similar mountain e-bikes from the same year. It offers strong motor output and torque support, which should help with hill climbing and rough-terrain control, and its battery capacity is competitive with many rivals in this category. However, some similar e-bikes may offer more range or better efficiency from their battery size, and the charging time of around 6.9 hours is longer than some alternatives. For a mountain e-bike focused on performance and trail capability, the power and braking systems are strong, but buyers should weigh whether the price is justified by the specific features and intended use. Riders prioritising high motor support, responsive braking, and a lightweight frame may find the value case more compelling, while those seeking extended range or faster charging might look elsewhere.

We reach this value score by combining the bike’s price, specification, performance data and comparison against similar e-bikes in our database.

Motor Name

Bosch Performance Line CX (Gen 5 / BDU 384 Y)

This mountain e-bike offers a strong and responsive motor setup that should feel capable and lively on trails, with good support for climbing and low-speed technical riding. Against similar e-bikes, the motor’s power and torque should provide a noticeable edge in terms of assistance and control, especially when navigating rough terrain or steep inclines. The torque and cadence sensor should help deliver a more natural and predictable feel, balancing responsiveness with rider input. While the motor’s power-to-weight ratio should make it feel more agile, the system may use battery capacity less efficiently than some rivals, which could limit range on longer rides. Riders looking for a powerful, trail-focused motor that feels confident on technical terrain may find this setup well-suited to their needs.

This explanation is based on the bike’s motor power, torque, battery capacity, claimed range, charging time, sensor type and how those figures compare with similar e-bikes in our database.

eBike FAQs

Is this bike suitable for long off-road rides?

The Scott Patron ST 900 RC is well-suited for long off-road rides, thanks to its mountain bike design, front and rear suspension, and strong motor support with 600W power and 85Nm of torque. However, its lower battery efficiency and 40-mile range may require more frequent charging on extended rides. The bike's weight of 24.6kg also makes it less easy to lift, which could be a consideration for carrying it on and off trails.

How does the motor perform on steep climbs?

The motor should handle steep climbs reasonably well, thanks to its 600W power and 85Nm of torque, which are above average for similar mountain e-bikes. However, the bike's battery efficiency is lower than many comparable models, so you may need to recharge more frequently on long climbs. The torque and cadence sensor should help deliver controlled assistance, making it easier to manage steep terrain without overexertion.

Is the battery efficient enough for regular trail use?

The battery capacity is above average for similar mountain e-bikes, which is a positive point, but the range is below average for similar e-bikes, meaning you may need to recharge more frequently on longer trail rides. The bike also has a relatively slow charging time compared to similar models, so planning charging stops may be necessary for extended trail use.

How comfortable is the bike on rough terrain?

The Scott Patron ST 900 RC should be quite comfortable on rough terrain, thanks to its front and rear suspension, which should significantly improve comfort on uneven surfaces. The 29-inch wheels and Schwalbe tires are designed for off-road use, providing good grip and stability. However, while it's well-suited for trails, it may not be the most efficient choice for daily urban commuting due to its mountain bike design.

How practical is the removable battery for charging and storage?

The removable battery is a practical feature that allows you to charge it separately from the bike, which can be convenient for storage and charging at home or while traveling. This flexibility is especially useful for mountain biking, where you might need to carry spare batteries for longer rides. However, the charging time is above average, so you should plan accordingly if you need a quick recharge.

Is this bike good value for its price compared to similar e-bikes?

This bike offers strong performance for its price, especially with its high battery capacity and powerful motor, which are both above average for similar mountain e-bikes. However, the range is below average, which may limit longer rides, and the price is on the higher side compared to similar models. It's a solid choice if you prioritize battery size and motor strength for off-road use, but you should consider whether the range and cost align with your needs.

How does the weight affect handling and portability?

The Scott Patron ST 900 RC's weight impacts handling and portability, especially on rough terrain where a heavier bike may feel less agile. However, its mountain bike design and suspension system help manage this weight effectively for off-road use. While it's not the lightest e-bike, the balance of power and weight should still provide a solid ride on trails.

What are the main compromises of this bike compared to others in its category?

Compared to similar mountain e-bikes, this model has a slightly lower range and slower charging time, which may require more frequent recharging on long rides. While the battery capacity is above average, the efficiency isn't as strong, so you might need to plan charging stops more carefully. The bike's weight is also slightly higher than average, which could make it a bit harder to lift or carry when needed.
