That looks great! What do you plan on doing with it? Racing? Riding all winter? So much fun to be had!

The plan is to race! After cross season it might become a winter bike. I'm really excited about finally participating after watching for two seasons.

Congrats on your new purchase!
I've been a lurking the forums for ages, but felt compelled to finally post because I am 5'2" and also had a heck of a time finding a cyclocross bicycle that would fit me. I never got to try the Scott because no one around had it in stock (plus the standover looks to be too high for me), but I am going to be receiving a custom build on a Specialized Crux - neon yellow - in about one week.
May I ask why the Crux wasn't right for you?
On a side note, one of the staff at a bicycle shops I called actually said to me, "They don't make bikes that small, no offense." when I asked about a 48cm. Then, when I pointed out that they deal with Specialized, who makes bikes in 46cm, he screamed, "WOW, they actually make bikes that small! Again... no offense."
I choose not to do business with them.
