2022 Nukeproof Dissent 290 RS Bike

sept. 2022 · Jason_Schroeder

The Dissent 290 is a race-ready, low-maintenance downhill bike with multiple points of adjustability points and exceptional stability that breeds confidence in rough sections.

Highs
  • Exceptional composure and stability at speed and through rough sections promote a plowing mentality

  • Race-ready build kit

  • Robust frame

  • Remains neutral and balanced through corners

Lows
  • Limited maneuverability in tight sections

  • The size and weight of the bike can become cumbersome on flat sections or flow trails

  • Code R brakes
