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.

Mega by name, Mega by nature. Another idiotproof enduro offering from Nukeproof, and Rob gives us his verdict.

The Loam Wolf puts Nukeproof's Mega 290 to the test. One of the top bikes for the dollar with such a solid build and suspension set-up.

The Mega 290 sits quite deep into its rear travel, but it still takes a solid thump or massive landing to blow the travel O-ring off the shock shaft.
