Take the World Cup-winning spirit and design of Scott's Gambler RC DH race bike and tweak the build and specs to be just as suited to a weekend sessioning with your crew as it is launching from the start gates, and you have the exceptionally fun and well-appointed Gambler 10.
This bike loves ripping lap after lap, popping high and landing deep. The primary difference between the two setups is at the frame level, where instead of a complete HMX carbon design like on Gambler RC, Gambler 10 uses HMX at the front triangle and utilizes high-quality alloy for the rear triangle.
Beloved updates like an integrated rear shock, a new 6-bar suspension linkage, and loads of adjustability are also here. Optimized around a MX’d wheel setup, but also fitting 29” wheels, the Gambler 10 is a DH bike that can make a sweet spot for everyone. Adjust the reach, chainstay length, bottom bracket height, and suspension progression, and headset reach to find your perfect setup for whatever the day has on offer.
On track, Gambler 10 is stable, agile, and responsive, and steering is intuitive, thanks to the new progressive geo layout. Should you get deeper into the rough, the new shock's lower center of gravity helps add control and stability to keep you looking to the next feature instead of focusing on making it through this one. Equally at home in the start gate or dropping in from the shuttle lot, Gambler 10 is the DH rig that begs you to go all-in, all the time.
Gambler 10 comes equipped with a performance-focused RockShox BoXXer fork featuring 38mm stanchions, DebonAir+ twin tube air springs, and the Charger 3 RC damper to dial in your suspension to perfection. RockShox's Vivid Coil shock sends unreal sensitivity off the top, smooth control in the mid-stroke, and adjustable hydraulic bottom-out protection. SRAM's GX DH 7-speed drivetrain and Shimano's 4-piston brakes provide all the go-and-slow you need for split-second efforts and navigating pro-lines on course.
