Nukeproof Mega 290 Carbon Mountain Bike Frame 2020

Nukeproof Mega 290 Carbon Mountain Bike Frame

The Nukeproof Mega 290 frame features an optimised design for max performance with large 29” wheels. It also is engineered to ensure superb tyre clearance and its modern geometry gives greater race-ready performance than anything else on the market. Inspired by its competition dominating 27.5” sibling that blasted the current Enduro Champion Sam Hill to victory two years running, this frame design rolls faster and with more stability than you have ever experienced.

Enhanced Geometry for Greater Comfort, Speed and Control

Pushing performance and leading the sport with innovation, Nukeproof has slackened this rides head angle and steepened the seat angle for increased climbing and descending efficiency and control. They also enhanced the suspension kinematic-performance for immense performance over even the roughest terrains. These changes improve its small bump sensitivity, provide greater mid stroke support for more predictable cornering and its increased end stroke progression gives confidence-inspiring control through even the roughest of terrain.

Lightweight and Ultra-Reliable Carbon Fibre Construction

Engineered with a unique blend of the highest quality carbon fibre composites, this lightweight and ultra-durable creation is constructed to win races and lift titles. Enabling you to push harder and faster than ever before, its modern geometry pushes the boundaries of performance and is more responsive, predictable and stable in even the most demanding race conditions.
