About Tracker 290
The Nukeproof Tracker brings the soul of mountain biking back to the hardtail — simple, fun, and ready for anything. Inspired by the early spirit of off-road exploration yet designed with modern MTB geometry, the Tracker blends agility and confidence in a package that welcomes new riders and rewards experienced ones.
Built around a tough 6061-T6 aluminium frame, the Tracker is engineered to thrive on mixed terrain — from forest trails and gravel paths to daily miles in the city. Wide tyre clearance, tapered front end, and dependable components ensure a smooth, controlled ride, wherever curiosity leads.
Versatility is at the core of the Tracker. Thoughtful frame details make it as practical as it is playful, with mounting points for racks, stands, and mudguards. Whether it’s bikepacking weekends, commuting, or simply riding for the thrill of it, the Tracker adapts to the adventure.
With unmistakable Nukeproof DNA, the Tracker celebrates what makes hardtails timeless: a direct connection to the trail, effortless durability, and pure riding enjoyment.
A hardtail for everyday riders. A tool for every terrain. A bike that reminds you why you started.
