The Nukeproof Giga is not just a point-and-shoot machine; it's a versatile and dynamic beast that delivers confidence-inspiring rides in all terrains. Its monstrous 290mm rear travel (170mm for 29" wheels) ensures that you have travel in reserve for when you need it most.
This bike's suspension is designed to be super supple off the top while providing mid-stroke support and progressive performance throughout the travel. The anti-squat is optimized to make downhill descents exhilarating yet ensures a smooth climb back to the top for your next run. The Giga's suspension platform is based on the same horseshoe-driven linkage as the award-winning Dissent downhill frame, with a 2-stage main pivot flip chip for fine-tuning your ride. With settings offering 25.5% or 29% progression, this bike allows you to tailor your experience to the trail conditions.
The robust and lightweight UD 700/800 Carbon fibre frame construction optimizes stiffness in the front triangle for stability and precision while enhancing compliance in the rear triangle for improved tracking and grip. The Giga offers sizes in S, M, L, XL, or XXL to ensure a dialed fit for every rider. Its Long, Low, Slack, and Steep geometry, based on the saddle offset principle, provides a tailored seated riding position with steeper seat angles on larger frames. Plus, the seat tube is designed for maximum seat post insertion to allow for a significant drop.
The Nukeproof Giga 290 RS Carbon is a masterful blend of innovation, performance, and style. Whether you're an enduro racing enthusiast or an adventure seeker tackling challenging trails, this bike is your partner in pushing the limits.

* Mountain bikes are sized differently to road bikes. Typically, they are sized in inches as the first MTBs were produced in the USA. European brands like Lapierre and Haibike like to use centimetres for all their bikes. The measurements of their mountain bikes doesn’t match their road bikes but are like a simple conversion from the inches measurement. This is why we have included cm measurements in brackets for the Mountain bike column.
