Ultimate Super-Enduro Weapon
Are you ready to push the boundaries of trail-riding and embrace the thrill of conquering bigger, rougher, and faster terrains? The Nukeproof Giga Carbon 290 was born from a relentless pursuit of the ultimate hard-hitting Super-Enduro bike, designed for those who crave more from their rides.
Sam Hill's Motto
At Nukeproof, we live by a motto that's also cherished by athletes like Sam Hill – "Enough is never enough." The Giga embodies this philosophy, offering a perfect blend of downhill bike power and enduro bike versatility. With two wheel-size options (standard 290 and mixed 297), the Giga is your ticket to conquering any trail.
Dominate Downhills, Conquer the Climb
The Giga is a long-travel beast that takes inspiration from our award-winning Dissent downhill bike and the Mega enduro bike. It's fast enough to claim podiums in the Enduro World Series, yet it retains a playful spirit perfect for the bike park. We call it our "parkduro" bike, ideal for those days when your downhill bike feels too big and your enduro bike feels too small.
Tailor Your Ride
The heart of the Giga's performance lies in its suspension platform, which features the same horseshoe-driven linkage as the Dissent downhill frame but with a 2-stage main pivot flip chip. This means you can adjust the kinematic progressivity on the fly, tailoring the bike's response to the trail conditions with a simple 8mm allen key.
Versatility Meets Shredding Power
Developed alongside the Mega enduro bike, the Giga takes the best elements of the Dissent downhill bike and transforms it into a long-travel enduro powerhouse. It's not only a rocket on descents, but it also climbs with grace and navigates tight terrain with ease.
Supreme Suspension
The Giga's suspension offers a supple small bump compliance, solid mid-stroke support, and progressive travel throughout, ensuring excellent cornering and pumping capabilities. With two shock progression settings, you can fine-tune the ride for your preferences and trail conditions.
- Setting 1 = 25.5% progression
- Setting 2 = 29% progression
Carbon Construction Excellence
The Giga's frame is meticulously crafted from UD 700/800 Carbon fiber. This optimization allows us to tailor stiffness for precision in the front triangle and compliance in the rear triangle, improving tracking and grip. The lower un-sprung mass in the carbon rear triangle enhances suspension performance.
Size for Everyone
Available in 5 sizes from Small to XXL and offering both 27.5" and 29" wheel options, there's a perfect fit for every rider. Our saddle offset principle ensures a tailored seated riding position across all sizes, with steeper seat angles on larger frames. Plus, the seat tube allows for maximum seat post insertion for maximum drop.
Thoughtful Design
The Giga is designed for the modern rider, featuring a 750ml water bottle mount (carbon bottle cage included), an accessory mount under the top tube for essential trail tools, an integrated rear mudguard, and ample tire clearance for up to 2.5" rubber.
For those who crave exclusivity, explore our Ltd. Edition "Sprung Collection" Giga bikes and check out the recommended shock settings for each frame.
The Nukeproof GIGA: Embrace Gluttony, for it's not a sin when it comes to conquering the trails. Get your Giga and experience the thrill of pushing your riding limits like never before.
