NUKEPROOF WARRANTYNukeproof warrants each new Nukeproof bicycle frame against defects in workmanship and materials for 2 years from the purchase date of the original owner.

THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER:Normal wear and tear.Improper assembly.Improper follow-up maintenance.Installation of parts or accessories not originally intended for, or compatible with, the frames as sold.Damage or failure due to accident, misuse, abuse, or neglect.Labour charges for part replacement or changeover.

This warranty is expressly limited to the repair or replacement of a defective item and is the sole remedy of the warranty. This warranty does not apply to damage caused by collision, crashing, trick riding, riding with heavy loads, commercial activities, or any similar activities or misuse; such uses may damage the bicycle, can cause serious injury to the rider, and in all cases will void this warranty. This warrantyisvoidinitsentiretybyanymodificationoftheframe,fork,or components.

This warranty extends from the date of purchase, applies only to the original owner, and is not transferable. Claims under this warranty must be made through the point of sale. Proof of purchase is required.

Taking its name from the legendary track at Moneyscalp Wood in Co Down, the Nukeproof Scalp is our eagerly-awaited DH race rig, offering 209mm of progressive rear travel via a pull-link driven single-pivot suspension system.

Designed and built with the target of grabbing podium places on the World Cup circuit, the Scalp is nonetheless destined to appeal to weekend warriors everywhere as a top-quality but affordable speed machine.

Engineered from double-welded 6061 aluminium and tested by our team riders on courses in the UK and elsewhere, the Scalp is a slack and low-slung gravity sled built for the steepest, most technical and most challenging race runs the sport can throw up.

Boasting a super-slack 63-degree head angle, 47.12 in wheelbase and 14” static BB height (medium size) the Scalp is characterised by its centrally-positioned shock and linkage system to keep the centre of gravity low and handling sweet.

Rear hub spacing is standard 150mm while BB width is 83mm and the 1.5in headtube can be used in conjunction with the latest generation of Nukeproof headsets to cater for standard 1-1/8in fork steerers.

Suspension-wise,theScalpusesasingle-pivotconfigurationwithaunifiedreartriangleforoptimumstrengthand stiffness. Its pull-link driven 'Fallout' linkage drives the shock in a three-stage progressive action - progressive throughout, with increasing progression at the beginning and end of the stroke, but a linearly progressive midstroke to avoid any spikes in damping. Huge 40mm diameter main pivot bearings are used with bearings mounted in machined faces in the swingarm, to provide maximum spacing and stiffness. Twin dogbones pull, rather than push, the swinglink giving a perfect progression rate, and allowing ride height tuning by swapping for different length links.

Shock is a 240x76mm giving 209mm of rear travel, with a Rockshox Vivid R2Ccoil unit as stock on standard frames and Cane Creek Double Barrel as an upgrade option.

Inspired by the explosion in Megavalanche-style Enduro DH events and evolved from a prototype that placed highly in the 2009 run of the actual event, the Mega frame is built to take the unique combinations of challenges thrown up by Enduro-style DH events and general All-Mountain adventure.

Offering 150mm rear travel and designed to match with 150-170mm forks up front the Mega is a versatile frame thatcombinesplushdescendingprowesswithpedallingefficiency.Suspension-wise, the Mega uses our ‘Erosion’ linkage giving a smooth progressive action with a well controlled mid-stroke to avoid wallowing under pedal loads.

Main bearing pivots are contained within a bespoke CNC-machined Bottom Bracket Assembly to ensure alignment, durability and precision, while an asymmetric chainstay design gives clearance for a double front derailleur (with a 22t-36t chainring set up) and compatibility with all leading models of ISCG-05 mounted chain retention systems. Geometry is based around a 66deg head angle and 75deg seat angle, with a BB height of 13.69” for climbing and descending prowess.

A 44mm headtube standard keeps the front of the bike light, with Nukeproof headset options allowing all fork steerer option compatibility.
