Nukeproof Digger RS Alloy Bike (2022)

The Nukeproof Digger RS Alloy Bike is a top-quality gravel adventure bike that features a durable and lightweight alloy frame, RockShox Rudy suspension forks and a SRAM Rival 1 11-Speed groupset with a wide-range 11-42T cassette and hydraulic disc brakes.

The Digger RS is strong, stiff, lightweight and compliant, this gravel adventure bike ticks all the boxes for every two-wheeled journey. It features a triple-butted hydro-formed frame and RockShox Rudy Ultimate fork equipped with a SRAM Rival 1 1x11-Speed groupset that includes a wide-ranging 11-42-Tooth cassette and Rival hydraulic disc brakes. Nukeproof has also fitted the Digger RS with DT Swiss GR 1600 Spline 25 wheels wrapped in high-grip Schwalbe G-One BITE tyres.

What started during an intoxicated conversation some years ago, has ended up as a cult product in the Nukeproof range. Inspired by Nukeproof athletes and their desire for a do-it-all training bike with something a little extra; the Digger is a versatile vessel, blending “gravel bike” performance with the soul of a mountain bike. Be it commuting to work, gravel ride, overnight adventures rides, pub bike or doing some unimaginable riding like Elliot Heap in Nukeproof's Digger edits, wherever you aim the Digger it will go.

Last updated in 2018, the Digger was due a refresh. The Gravel/Adventure category has evolved a lot over the last few years. Nukeproof wanted the V3 design to bring the Digger bang up to date with new features and geometry to make it even more versatile. The Digger was already a great bike, now even better taking the best ingredients from the V2 and evolving into the V3.
