Built and optimised for the EWS Enduro World Series race circuit, this 29er frame design and bike build ethos are based on the hugely successful smaller-wheeled bike that Sam Hill rode to achieve the silverware two years running. This 29" wheel steed rolls over the roughest terrains and gathers rapid pace faster than you have experienced before, and is your stepping stone into the world of top-level enduro racing.
Engineered with a triple-butted hydroformed alloy tubeset, this lightweight and ultra-robust creation enable you to push harder and faster than ever before. Plus, its modern geometry means it's more responsive and offers greater stability in even the most demanding conditions. Nukeproof enhanced the suspension kinematic-performance to make the bike as fast and as controlled as possible. 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.
