Expirience with the Nukeproof Giga 297 Comp

Ludwig Döhl Racing legend Sam Hill's racing machine is also available in a mullet design with a small 27.5-inch rear wheel. With its geometry, the Nukeproof is right in the middle between playfulness and high speed stability. When it comes to the seating position, Nukeproof chooses the middle ground between sporty and comfortable. On climbs, other bikes in the under 4500 Euro present a little better performance than the Nukeproof.
