THE NEW FOIL FEATURES THE SAME LIGHTWEIGHT FRAME CHARACTERISTICS AS ITS PREDECESSOR AND IS AMONGST THE LIGHT-

EST AERO BIKES ON THE MARKET. THE FRAME AERODYNAMICS OF THE BIKE HAVE BEEN REWORKED FROM THE HEADTUBE ALL

THE WAY TO THE REAR DROPOUTS, STIFFNESS AND COMFORT VALUES HAVE BEEN LIFTED TO A NEW LEVEL AND THE INTEGRATED

COCKPIT IS JUST ONE EXAMPLE THAT SHOWS HOW FAR COMPONENT INTEGRATION HAS BEEN TAKEN ON THE NEW FOIL. THE IDEA

BEHIND THIS MANUAL IS TO GUIDE YOU THROUGH THE BUILD-UP OF A DI2-EQUIPPED FOIL. LARS TEUTENBERG, TECHNICAL TEAM

LIASON, KNOWS ALL THE LITTLE TRICKS TO ENSURE THAT THE BUILD OF THE NEW FOIL CAN BE DONE QUICKLY AND EFFICIENTLY.

Before you start assembling the bike, we recommend doing an inventory check of all parts (components, cables, wires, junctions,

etc.), as well as a brief function test of the electronic Shimano Di2 groupset. To do so, connect all Shimano parts and connect via

SM-PCE1 or SM-BCR2 to a laptop. Update all components with the e-tube software.

Finally, check whether the drivetrain functions properly.

GETTING STARTED

Wiring diagram: before you start building the Foil, check out the wiring diagram in order to use the right parts in the right places.

Follow Shimano’s instructions regarding the installation of Di2 parts.

FOIL BUILD UP MANUAL / SCOTT / FOIL / 2016

Start the build-up of the Foil with the integrated Syncros Aero RR1.0 Cockpit. It’s considerably easier to install the cables on the

cockpit when it’s not mounted on the fork. The Syncros Aero RR1.0 Cockpit is available in 9 dierent stem length/bar width com-

binations as an aftermarket piece. Thanks to a reducer shim, the cockpit is compatible with both 1 1/4” and 1 1/8” steerers.

Start the bar assembly with the two 35mm connecting wires for the shifters. Turn the bar upside down and insert the cables into

the distant holes on the left and right side respectively. Push the cables to the center and pull them out where the junction box is

ultimately going to be placed. A tool or a simple spoke might help to get the cables out. Make sure the cable between the shifter

and the cable entry on the bar is loose in order to avoid over-tensioning once bar tape is applied. Over-tensioning often causes

malfunction because the wire can be unplugged.

Insert a 1200mm Di2 cable into the right brake cable exit (top view) and

push it towards the center. Pull it out through the big opening. For English

brake setups use the left hole instead.

This cable will later connect the junction box (Junction A) with the inter-

nal junction box (Junction B).

8 9

FOIL BUILD UP MANUAL / SCOTT / FOIL / 2016

Insert the brake cable into the distal hole and pull it out of the medial brake

cable hole (don’t cross over the big center opening for the junction box).

Here again, a spoke might help to pull the cable out of the medial hole.

Connect all three cables to the 3 port junction

box (Junction A/SM-EW-90-A). Use a Shimano

tool to ensure a ﬁrm connection.

Mount the brake leavers on the bar. Check that the brake cables are correctly pre-installed. Repeat the same procedure on the other side.

10 11

We recommend using a Shimano Direct Mount Quick Release (SM-CB90)

which facilitates rear brake adjustment on the Foil. Install the QR either

5cm from the bar or in the middle of the externally routed brake cable

under the bottom bracket.

To correctly install the cable housings, start by cutting them to the right length. Slide the housings over the pre-installed brake

cables. Use a bit of oil or grease to reduce the friction. Make sure that the cable housing sits tightly in the foreseen opening of the

brake leaver.

FOIL BUILD UP MANUAL / SCOTT / FOIL / 2016

Fix the junction box (Junction A) to the cover by

using a zip tie.

Make sure the button of the junction box is

placed correctly under the hole of the cover.

12 13

Slide the installed junction box into the opening of

the cockpit from the front at a 45° angle. Make sure

the button is still placed under the hole of the cover.

Align the cover correctly and ﬁx it with the two bolts. Tighten the bolts to

1-1.5Nm using an Allen key.

FOIL BUILD UP MANUAL / SCOTT / FOIL / 2016

If you want to equip the Foil with Shimano’s Di2 Sprint Shifters

(SW-R610), install them right under the brake levers and connect

the Sprint Shifter wire with the brake lever using the Shimano tool.

Before the rear brake cable is inserted into the frame, make sure

you pre-install cable guides or a shrinking tube in order to hold

together the cable housing and the Di2 wire.

1514

Use the correct cable guide for the downtube. There is one speciﬁcally for Di2 mounts

and one for mechanical groupsets. Before inserting the cables into the frame, make

sure to guide the cables through the indicated openings of the cable guide.

Start mounting the frameset by placing the bigger 1 1/4“ bearing on the fork crown

and the smaller 1 1/8” on the top using assembly grease. Add the compression ring

on top of upper bearing.

FOIL BUILD UP MANUAL / SCOTT / FOIL / 2016

Continue with the headset cover and the required

amount of spacers. SCOTT oers speciﬁc aero-spac-

ers for the Foil available in the following sizes: 2mm,

5mm, 10mm and 20mm. The Foil is delivered with

1x20mm, 2x10mm, 1x5mm and 3x2mm spacers.

Mount the pre-installed Syncros

cockpit on the steerer.

16 17

Mark the top end of the stem on the steerer and cut

the steerer 3-4mm below the marking. If you are

unsure about your ﬁnal bar height, include some

standard 1 1/4” round spacers on top of the stem to

maintain ﬂexibility for height adjustment.

Install the headset expander by sliding it into the steerer under slight tension.

FOIL BUILD UP MANUAL / SCOTT / FOIL / 2016

Tighten the expander to 8-10Nm. Use a torque wrench to ensure that you don’t overtighten the bolt.

1918

Install the cockpit and loosely tighten the screw of the top cap.

Insert the rear cap and position it correctly by lifting the stem about 1-2mm. Continue by tightening the top cap screw until the

head set play is balanced. Finish the handlebar mount by tightening the stem to a maximum of 5Nm. Use a torque wrench to

ensure that you don’t overtighten the stem bolts.

FOIL BUILD UP MANUAL / SCOTT / FOIL / 2016

Fix the Di2 wire that goes into the frame to

the rear brake cable with a piece of tape.

This will facilitate pushing both cables

through the frame. Make sure the shrinking

tube and cable guide have been installed

according to the above description before

you proceed with this step.

Insert the cables into the opening on top of the downtube

and push them down until they appear at the bottom bracket

opening of the frame.
