It’s a constant push for bigger, longer, rougher and fasterwith ever increasing demands on the performanceand capabilities of our bike. The pursuit is endless.It’s a motto that athletes like Sam Hill live by. The newNukeproofGiga is the embodiment of this idea;Designed to be the ultimate hard-hitting Super-Enduro weapon for when you just need more.The Nukeproof Giga 275 Comp 27.5 Mountain Bike is a seriously capable machine, with 180mm (27.5”) or 170mm (29”) rear travel; the Giga isa monster truck of a bike that has travel in reserve for when you need it. But to pigeonhole it as apoint and shoot machine would be a disservice as it isso much more capable than this might suggest!Due to the way that it uses its travel; the Giga gives you the feel of a big bike, yet the versatility of amodern super-endurobike. The Giga has a dynamic and confidence inspiring ride to help you pushyour limits in all kinds of terrain. It’s equally at home at big mountain technical enduro stages ofvenues like La Thuile, as it is lapping the biggest lines in the Whistler bike park.The suspension is designed to be super supple off the top, whilst being supportive in the mid strokeand progressive throughout the rest of the travel. The anti-squat is optimised to ensure the Gigadescends like a hooligan yet behaves itself on the climb back to the top for the next run.The suspension platform is basedon thesame horseshoe driven linkageas our award-winningDissent downhill frame, albeit now with a 2-stage main pivot flip chip. Using an eccentric axle system,riders canalter the Kinematic progressivity;sothe bike can be tailored to suit the conditionson thetrail with only an 8mmallenkey.Setting 1 = 25.5% progressionSetting 2 = 29% progression.Both settings have a super supple beginning for small bump compliance. They also both have goodmid-stroke support for better cornering and pumping. Like the Dissent, the progression drops off in theend stroke to prevent mid-stroke harshness or spiking and allows more tuning options with volumespacers.The + Progressive setting can be used to add shock progression on a coil set up just like adding avolume spacer to an air shock. The added suppleness is also good in wet and slippery conditions.The Giga Frame is constructed completely from UD 700/800 Carbon fibre. This allowed us to optimisethe stiffness and compliance of the frame parts individually. The front triangle has been tailored forstability and precision, whilst the rear triangle was designed for compliance to help tracking andprovide grip. Another bonus of the carbon rear triangle is that it has a lower un-sprung mass forultimate suspension performanceAvailable in 5 sizes (Small to XXL) in either 27.5” or 29” wheel size, there is the perfect fit foreveryone. The frame geometry is Long, Low, Slack and Steep as it is based around our saddle offsetprinciple, which ensures the seated riding position is tailored across all sizes, with steeper seat angleson bigger frames. The Seat tube is also designed for maximum seat post insertion to allow maximum drop.The Giga is also sculptured to fit a 750ml water bottle(carbon bottle cage included) as well as anaccessory mount under the top tube for emergency trail tools. All models also feature an integratedrear mud guard and plenty of clearance for up to 2.5” tyres.
