Perfect for riders 2yrs+ (90cm-105cm), the Cub Scoot has the DNA of its Big Brother, the infamous Scout.

The Dissent 290c is the next evolution of Nukeproof’s proven downhill platform, reengineered in carbon. Using a blend of T700 and T800 high modulus carbon fibre, the chassis benefits from more complex shaping and precise tuning of stiffness, compliance and strength in each zone. This design freedom allowed engineers to refine ride characteristics for clearer feedback and control while maintaining durability. Weight was not the primary goal, yet the carbon frame achieves a reduction of 430 g compared to the previous aluminium version, resulting in a lighter, stiffer and more responsive bike. The layup process also enabled rapid prototyping and iteration, so every millimetre of geometry and linkage integration is optimised for maximum performance on the track.

Engineered to adapt to any track, terrain or riding style, the Dissent 290c Carbon is one of Nukeproof’s most versatile downhill frames. Built around the proven Fallout Linkage, it offers extensive adjustment so riders can fine tune every aspect of setup. A three position main pivot lets you set suspension progression at 21 percent, 25 percent or 28 percent to move from a plush park feel to full race precision. The adjustable reach headset provides plus minus 6 millimetres of range to balance fit and handling, while chainstay flip chips offer three wheelbase settings to prioritise stability or agility for the track at hand. Versatility extends to wheel configuration as well. You can run full 29 inch or mixed 29 and 27.5 inch by inverting a flip chip on the rear triangle. Geometry and suspension kinematics remain consistent so performance is unchanged across setups. Combined with the new NP1 to NP3 sizing structure, riders can achieve a truly personalised fit and ride feel, whether chasing split seconds, flowing through bike park berms or sending freeride lines. Dissent Carbon is not just a downhill bike, it is a platform for precise tuning and complete rider adaptability.

The Dissent Carbon is engineered for performance and real world practicality. Every detail is specified to make ownership, servicing and racing straightforward season after season. Tube in tube cable routing simplifies setup and maintenance. Generous tyre clearance for up to 2.5 inches, a threaded bottom bracket and MAX bearings provide long term reliability in harsh conditions. Integrated bump stops protect the frame and fork crowns from impact, while 3D contoured rubber protection keeps the bike quiet and prevents damage from chain slap or rock strikes. All fasteners are chosen for practicality with easy access, sensible Allen key sizes and laser etched torque markings to make service work clear and repeatable. Combined with readily available spares and small parts, the result is less time in the workshop and more time on track.

At the core of the Dissent 290c is an evolution of Nukeproof’s World Cup winning Fallout Linkage, refined to balance sensitivity, support and control. The latest carbon platform enabled further optimisation of the kinematics for improved small bump compliance and greater stability through the mid stroke. A high initial leverage rate gives a supple ground hugging response at the start of travel, while a progressive mid stroke provides predictable support and carries speed through rough sections and big impacts. Near the end of travel a carefully tuned regressive phase limits harsh bottom outs and helps riders use the full 200 mm efficiently. This refined curve increases traction and comfort and makes the shock easier to tune, allowing higher spring rates or the latest air shocks without losing suppleness. The result is a bike that feels planted, composed and adaptable across a wide range of tracks and terrain, from flat out World Cup courses to all day park laps.

Every detail of the Giga is specified with the rider in mind so it can be ridden harder, last longer and be easier to live with day to day. The sculpted carbon frame carries a 750 ml bottle with a carbon cage included and an accessory mount under the top tube for tools or spares, keeping essentials close and your pack light. An integrated rear mudguard, generous mud clearance for tyres up to 2.5 inches, a threaded bottom bracket and MAX bearings deliver long term reliability in harsh conditions. Durability and serviceability are central to the layout. Accessible hardware, sensible Allen key sizes, laser etched torque markings and tube in tube internal cable routing make workshop and pit work straightforward. The frame also uses 3D contoured rubber guards on the down tube, seatstays and chainstays to keep the Giga quiet and protected from strikes. Practical, tough and rider focused, the Giga is built to be ridden hard and maintained with ease.

The Giga’s geometry and suspension are tuned for a balanced mix of stability, speed and agility, delivering efficient climbing and confidence when gravity takes over. Built around Nukeproof’s horseshoe driven linkage, the system uses an eccentric main pivot axle to let riders set suspension progression at 25.5 percent or 29 percent, matching terrain, conditions and preference. Both settings provide supple small bump sensitivity, supportive mid stroke control and a progressive end stroke that keeps the bike composed on big impacts. The Progressive plus setting can add shock progression on a coil setup in a way that is similar to adding a volume spacer to an air shock, and the extra suppleness is beneficial in wet and slippery conditions. In line with Nukeproof’s Long, Low, Slack and Steep geometry, the Giga offers stable high speed handling while remaining agile in tight technical sections. A steeper seat angle maintains an efficient climbing position across sizes, and longer reach and wheelbase figures give the chassis a planted race ready character. The result is a bike that feels balanced and controllable, planted when needed, playful when you want it and ready to be pushed hard.

The latest Nukeproof Mega is built around a 6061 T6 aluminium chassis engineered to achieve the ideal balance of strength, stiffness and durability. Every element of the frame, including all forged parts, has been designed with precision to deliver the planted and predictable feel expected from a race ready enduro bike. The use of hydroformed tubing and advanced welding techniques ensures exceptional reliability without adding unnecessary weight. The result is a frame made to handle the toughest trails in the world while remaining easy to maintain and service, making it the perfect choice for privateers and racers who demand both performance and longevity.

At the core of the Megawatt Carbon is the SRAM Eagle Powertrain, a first of its kind integrated e bike system that combines the motor, Eagle AXS transmission and AXS wireless shifting in one package. With 90 Nm of torque and a 720 Wh battery, it delivers smooth, powerful and precise assistance whether climbing steep trails or riding fast through technical descents. The system also introduces Autoshift and Coastshift. Autoshift selects the optimal gear in the background so the rider can focus on the trail, while Coastshift allows shifting without pedalling to avoid harsh shifts when the terrain changes suddenly.

The Reactor Alloy balances toughness, precision and performance. It uses a 6061 T6 aluminium front triangle and chainstays for strength and reliability in aggressive trail riding, with a carbon fibre seatstay to fine tune responsiveness and vertical compliance. This hybrid layout gives a lively yet controlled feel on the trail, stiff and direct when pushing hard and smooth over rough terrain. Tubes and junctions are optimised for strength to weight, so the frame feels solid and dependable without losing agility. Built for everything from long mountain days to bike park laps, the Reactor Alloy combines practicality and performance for riders who demand versatility and durability in a single package. Adaptability is central to the design. A two position “Trail or Rail” flip chip lets riders refine geometry and handling. Trail mode provides an efficient balanced feel for big days, while Rail mode lowers the bottom bracket and relaxes the head angle for more aggressive descending and corner support. The Reactor V2 also offers wheel configuration options. The 290 Trail or Rail chip in the rear triangle can be switched to a 297 mix wheel Rail chip. Geometry and suspension kinematics match the 29 inch Rail setting, ensuring consistent performance across setups.

Every detail of the Nukeproof Reactor is engineered to make life on and off the trail seamless. With rider focused practicality at its core, it combines performance with easy service. The front triangle accepts a full size 750 ml water bottle and an accessory mount under the top tube carries tools or spares, ideal for long self supported rides. Generous mud clearance for tyres up to 2.6 inches ensures reliability in harsh conditions, while MAX bearings throughout the frame deliver lasting smoothness and durability. Servicing is straightforward thanks to accessible hardware, sensible Allen key sizes and laser etched torque markings, complemented by tube in tube internal cable routing for a clean and rattle free setup. 3D contoured rubber guards protect key areas from impacts and chain noise. Thoughtfully engineered and trail proven, the Reactor is built to perform ride after ride.

The Reactor Carbon uses a meticulously engineered UD carbon fibre chassis that balances stiffness, compliance and strength across every section. Both front and rear triangles, including chainstays and seatstays, are full carbon to keep weight low and response high, transferring power efficiently while filtering trail chatter for all day comfort. Adaptability is central to the design. A two position Trail or Rail flip chip lets riders fine tune geometry and handling. Trail mode delivers an efficient, balanced feel for big mile days, while Rail mode lowers the bottom bracket and relaxes the head angle for more aggressive descending and corner support. Versatility extends to wheel setups. The 290 Trail or Rail chip on the rear triangle can be swapped for a 297 mixed wheel Rail chip. Geometry and suspension kinematics match the 29 inch Rail setting, ensuring consistent performance across configurations. Built to be as dynamic as the terrain, the Reactor Carbon combines precise engineering with real world versatility for everything from long alpine rides to technical singletrack.

The Nukeproof Scout’s geometry is carefully refined to balance efficiency, control and trail confidence. Subtle updates to the seat tube and head tube angles improve pedalling performance and increase stability on descents, so the bike feels lively yet composed. Size specific chainstays and well spaced frame sizes ensure precise handling for every rider, whether charging technical lines, railing corners or cruising flow trails. The result is a hardtail that pedals efficiently, corners with confidence and keeps the aggressive, playful attitude that defines the Scout.

At the heart of the Solum is a custom hydroformed 6061 T6 triple butted aluminium frame engineered to maximise strength while keeping weight low. The advanced tubing and construction deliver stiffness where it matters for efficient power transfer and impact resistance, making it tough enough for aggressive riding. Offered in multiple sizes, the Solum’s geometry and proportions are carefully tuned to rider height and intended use, whether that is tight technical pump track sessions or big flowing dirt jump lines.
