Well-equipped for fast and intense trail riding, this mountain bike (MTB) frame comes kitted out with an ultra-strong monocoque carbon fibre build for the best balance of stiffness, strength and low weight performance. With itsFactory Series Fox Float X2 rear shock, you'll also benefit from increased tuneability, smoothness and control as you charge across demanding terrain conditions at speed. Another highlight is its race-ready frame geometry with internally piped cable routing, making it ideal for handling the demands of enduro racing while also providing a clean, sleek finish.
For over 12 years, Nukeproof's best-selling model; the Mega has been racking up awards on enduro stages and in the press around the world. With four Enduro World Series titles to its name, the Mega has become an icon that is synonymous with racing.
Since 2009 the Nukeproof Mega has been on a constant development to meet the demands of Nukeproof's riders and customers alike.As a result, the Mega Carbon V4 frame is available for 27.5”, 29” or new Mixed (Front 29”/Rear 27.5” wheel sizes) wheel set ups, with each frame design tailored around each wheel size.
Full Suspension Carbon Fibre MTB Frame
To optimise the weight, strength and stiffness, the Mega Carbon frame features a T700/800 UD woven carbon fibre frameset (Front and rear Triangle). The carbon swingarms helps reduce theunsprungweight on the rear of the bike, improving suspension performance. All forged partsaremade from 6061-T6 aluminium.
After winning four Enduro World Series Titles in three years the V4 design is an evolution of Nukeproof's ultimate enduro bike. At the heart of the frame is the brand's revised suspension Kinematic, designed to be more subtle off the top, whilst remaining progressive and predictable. Anti-Squat is used to create an effective pedalling bike that can be thrashed through technical terrain. The useable SAG range is also widened to allow riders to tune the suspension to the trails. Other key features include:
· All new UD Carbon chassis
· Improved suspension kinematics
· Tube-In-Tube design for easy cable installation
· All new geometry
· Optimised sizing/fit - Small to Large
· SRAM UDH
· Room for a750ml water bottle inside the main front triangle
