Review: Nukeproof Scout 290

May 2022 · Robert Johnston

The Nukeproof Scout 290 is an aggressive all-mountain hardtail that offers a nice blend of downhill handling and a comfortable climbing position.

Nukeproof Introduces the Scout Hardtail

Sept 2020

We’ve seen a number of XC hardtails drop lately. Canyon, Orbea, Trek and BMC to name a few. We also saw the other end of the spectrum in the Kona Honzo ESD. None of these are “normal bikes.” In fact, the most high-profile normal hardtail we saw was the Yeti ARC, and it may just…

Oct 2019 · Alan Muldoon

The Nukeproof Scout 275 Comp has seen a lot of development. Its low-slung profile remains, but the bike has been stretched to a more generous cockpit.

Lows
  • The front end is a little low

Nukeproof Scout 290 Comp review

Jun 2018 · Guy Kesteven

Light, forgiving distance-shrinker with the stability and control to shred the craziest descents. Buy if you want a great, efficient yet enduro-enjoyable package for riding all day long

Highs
  • Relatively lightweight, impressively smooth ride, super-low and slack geometry, sorted wheel pack and cockpit

Lows
  • Low-slung bottom bracket rules out plus-tyre use, short-stroke dropper and narrow saddle
