Expirience with the Nukeproof Dissent 290 COMP

Ludwig Döhl The 200 mm trail on the fork qualify the Downhill-Bike of Nukeproof for in rowdy descents with thick roots use. With a flat 63 degree head tube angle and a long reach, the geometry corresponds to the current trend. When viewing the 17,4 kg, its apparent: there are lighter Downhill-Bikes in this price range.
