Waiting anxiously for info as well. Demoed the aluminum version and really liked it. My "guess" would be yes for carbon.
I'm torn between building a Scout and a carbon Smuggler at the moment. I'd prefer a Scout but 4kg for frame is pretty ridiculous. The Smuggler is a full kilo lighter but I'll have to buy new wheels to build it which adds to the cost.

Should be a new Scout coming but look for changes compared to the current model. Carbon should be available.
My kid really wants the carbon Scout bike for his birthday, which is coming up in a couple of weeks. He's fine not receiving it on his birthday and getting it further down the line, but I really wish they'd make the announcement that it's coming prior to his birthday so it would be "official."

There is a lot of rumors going around about the "New Scout!" I really hope that it comes out soon. I did a TR demo in my local riding area and talked with the TR guy about the Scout. He gave up no info but it sounds like they are doing something different with the Scout. I asked about the carbon Scout and his answer was vague.......but he inferred that they were cooking up something juicy......fingers crossed!

I thought I found a picture of a new TR bike...possibly a Scout. It looks like its just Sentinel though with some custom stickers. That was exhausting trying to figure out.

Saw this on Matt Macduffs Instagram last night riding with the transition dudes. For sure a transition. Looks to be carbon and less of a rounded look and more sleek. The new scout??
edit: I don’t know how to upload pictures but if someone else could help me out that would be great. It’s the tan bike in the Instagram stories.

Correct. It’s not a direct post where you gather likes and comments type of thing. If you go to his profile and you click on his picture in his bio section of his profile because you get to any of his uploaded pictures it will take you to his stories. There you will be able to click through until you see the one that has him on a ride with the guys from transition. There you will be able to spot out the tan possibly new carbon scout.

Can't really tell what kind of bike that is but you may be on to something.

Thank you for explaining that......I'm not an Instagram regular.

They just colored it that way so people would think it's the current color way of this years bike.
Hide it in plain sight.
