Nukeproof Mega 290C Pro on test – an enduro bike to make corners go into hiding!

Jan 2020 · Christoph Bayer

Good things made even better – the new Nukeproof Mega 290C Pro is the logical evolution of its aluminium predecessor. It's so good that it's been Sam Hill's bike of choice for the 2019 EWS. But how does it fare against the competition?

Highs
  • Easy to ride fast

  • Very balanced

  • Excellent suspension

Lows
  • Cumbersome in certain situations

  • No bottle mount in the front triangle

Dec 2019 · Alan Muldoon

The combination of the race tuned geometry, floaty suspension and functional build kit, makes the Nukeproof Mega 275c Pro an extremely capable bike.

Highs
  • Aggressive riding position

Lows
  • Michelin front tyre undermines confidence

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 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
