New Full Suspension Carbon range
NEW FULL SUSPENSION CARBON RANGE
Over the past year the Giga, Mega and Reactor have proven themselves in media tests and in in between the tapes time and time again. The Giga has tasted victory Giga as the Enduro and park bike of the year in numerous publications. It has also finishing on the Enduro World Cup podium and taking home countless national victories and titles. To prove its versatility its been sent huge by our US freestyle riders at numerous jams.
Historically our flagship enduro model, The Mega is our best selling model in the suspension range. It’s proven itself as the Nukeproof-SRAM enduro team’s bike of choice, and it’s the vessel that Dan Booker is in the hunt for the overall Enduro World Cup Title with.
The Reactor continues to be a firm trail favourite. It’s clever rear suspension enables the Reactor to climb with ease, yet descend like a hooligan. It defies it’s “short Travel” status. To borrow a fairy story analogy; It’s not too big, not too small, it’s just right.
For 2023 we could not improve on the formular of these frames so why change them? Let’s not hide behind the obvious, Whilst the frames have received some very subtle carbon lay up tweaks, the main changes are in the specifications and a glorious lick of fresh paint.
NEW TRANSMISSION:
Whilst the frames remain constant the specification of the Mega & Giga’s are totally revised. The main introduction is the latest generation drive train from Sram with the all new T-TYPE AXS drive system.
Giga & Mega RS models receive the SRAM full X01 package, whilst the Factory models receive a blend of 80% X0 and 20% GX. The Elite models receive the AXS T-Type GX drive train. As ever these new systems are paired with the latest custom tunned forks and shock from both Rockshox and Fox.
The COMP models of Giga, Mega and Reactor also receive the bulletproof Microshift drive train. Whilst some my sniff at the 10 speed set up the wide range cassette (11-48) and positive indexing make this the best shifting product in it’s sector. This set up has been tested and used at the highest level of enduro racing by our athletes.
The result is the best spec’ed products we have ever produced.

From concept to design, the Reactor is built from the ground up to be the ultimate aggressive trail bike. It’s an uncompromising build with a full-carbon frame and suspension designed to maximize pedalling efficiency and traction.
Specced with a build that leans towards aggressive and with it’s “trail or rail” geometry-altering flip chip, the Reactor is the perfect go-anywhere and do-anything machine.The Reactor’s UD carbon monocoque frame comes with 3D-contoured frame protection and is Factory fitted with a clear paint protection kit to keep the bike looking fresh.It’s a bike built for all-day epics in backcountry terrain, where a 2,000-foot climb will inevitably lead to a 2,000-foot descent and you need a bike that’ll handle both equally well.

MEGA 290/297 AVAILABLE AS FULL BIKES AND FRAME ONLY
An enduro bike built on the tenets of balance, predictability, and absolute speed.
Originally designed as the “downhiller’s trail bike” made specifically to tackle the infamous Megavalanche enduro in France, the Mega frame has evolved with the sport over the years. No matter the version, its performance remains consistent: the Mega keeps racking up enduro stage wins and press accolades. With no less than four Enduro World Championship titles to its name, the Mega has become an icon synonymous with Enduro racing.
This latest iteration of the bike — the Mega v4 — is built around a horst link suspension design. No matter the terrain, it inspires confidence with a subtle feel in the top of the travel that remains progressive and predictable through to the end of the stroke. The Frame sizing is designed around our “dynamic saddle offset geometry” to optimize seated riders weight distribution on each frame size, with sizes available ranging small to XXL.
Available in both a standard 290 and 297 mixed-wheel configuration, riders can choose which version of the Mega suits them best.

GIGA 290/297 AVAILABLE AS FULL BIKES AND FRAME ONLY
The Nukeproof Giga came to be because we wanted a bike with a little bit more; something that could still comfortably pedal uphill but would descend like a hooligan. Thus came the Giga, a long-travel weapon designed around an evolution of the dissent downhill bike’s fallout suspension linkage. It’s hugely capable, equally at home on the enduro world cup as it is lapping the gnarliest downhill trails in the park.
The monocoque UD carbon frame is internally piped for easy-fit cable routing, the downtube is sculpted to easily fit a water bottle, and the seat tube is designed to maximize post insertion depths, allowing riders to run longer dropper posts. To ensure the Giga is protected, the frame comes fitted with 3D-moulded rubber protection and a Factory-fitted clear paint protection kit. Available in both 290 and 297 mixed-wheel options, the Giga features ultra-tuneable geometry and a top-notch component package.
