Tested: Nukeproof Mega 290 Pro

Sep 2018

This is a weird bike, and not because its name once belonged to a Midwest mid-nineties carbon and titanium component manufacturer. It’s weird because it combines forgiving geometry with unforgiving suspension… and it actually kinda works.

Nukeproof Mega 275C RS - Review

May 2018 · Mike Kazimer

Nukeproof added a carbon front triangle with minor geometry updates to the latest Mega chassis, does that translate into an EWS-capable ride for the average pilot?

Highs
  • Fast and stable, but also able to handle slower speeds.

  • Excellent suspension performance.

  • DoubleDown tires as standard equipment.

Lows
  • You still won't be able to ride like Sam Hill.

  • No water bottle mounts inside front triangle.

  • Lighter riders may need different rebound tune

Nukeproof Mega Pro 275 review

Apr 2018 · Rob Weaver

A great bike with superb tyres and incredible damping. Sizing won't suit everyone though and there's too much flex in the wheels. Buy if you’re in the market for a seriously well-mannered enduro bike that can be raced at the highest level straight off the shop floor

Highs
  • Great suspension that offers confidence and comfort when it counts

  • Geometry is great in the larger sizes

  • Dependable tyres that'll grip well and stave off punctures

  • Powerful, easy to control brakes

Lows
  • Medium frame feels like it could be longer

  • Wheels feel flexy when pushed hard

Nukeproof Mega 275 Comp (2018) review - MBR

Jan 2018 · Alan Muldoon

Nukeproof has done an amazing job with the new Nukeproof Mega 275 Comp. The geometry and sizing are on point, the specification is on the money.

Highs
  • Great geometry, sizing and handling.

Lows
  • Slight harshness to the ride.
