Nukeproof Mega 275 Carbon Worx EWS Bike X01 Eagle. To celebrate & commemorate Sam Hill being crowned the 2017 EWS Series champion, Nukeproof has created a limited-edition replica bike; the Nukeproof Mega Carbon 275 Worx! These will be extremely rare as Nukeproof has only produced 50 of these limited-edition bikes worldwide. Each bike has its own unique serial number on the top tube; numbered from 2- 51. (Sam's own bike was 1 ) This bike comes with Sam's awesome World's paint scheme & all the parts that helped take him to victory. This bike is set to become a future icon & is your change to own a piece of real MTB history! Since 1995 the infamous Megavalanche race, which starts from the highest point on Pic Blanc (3300m) above the village of Alpe D' Huez has been synonymous with all mountain riding & the highest level of true mountain bike racing Conceived originally in 2009 by the development team at Nukeproof in an attempt to build the perfect bike for this exact style of racing, the Mega was born. Now in its 4th evolution, the Mega is podium proven. It has tasted success with numerous national & international race wins to its name Designed to excel on the toughest enduro tracks; the gravity focused
Specification is designed to descend fast but maintain the pedalling efficiency for all-day epics Chassis Stiffness. For 2019 Nukeproof has focussed on the smallest details in order to improve an already podium proven chassis. Making the decision to commit to a dedicated 1x drivetrain configuration across all models, this enabled its engineers to utilise the space required for a front derailleur to increase the main pivot bearing placement ensuring that maximum stiffness is achieved. This additional stiffness prevents torsional flex under pedalling & helps the chassis track through high speed, rough terrain without compromise With stiffness in mind, Nukeproof took the time to incorporate the very latest Boost 148 rear axle spacing allowing it to spec much stiffer & stronger wheels both front & rear. All 2019 Nukeproof Mega models will come with new wider spaced Boost wheels & forks enabling the rider to feel even more confident on the increased capability of the bike. Updated Race Geometry. With the demands of Enduro World Series racers progressing at a rapid rate, Nukeproof looked again at its geometry & saw an opportunity to tailor the frames to suit not only the fastest racers, but the growing tribe of riders that utilise its bikes every weekend whether that be shuttling runs at their favourite bike park, or heading off for an all-day epic in the local hills Slightly taller head tube lengths help tailor the cockpit feel to increase rider confidence, & a lengthened top tube on large & extra-large frames should help even the tallest of riders feel at home on the new Mega Carbon 275 Worx Metric Shock Sizing. The product development team work extremely closely with Nukeproof's suspension partners & spent endless hours working on the perfect shock configuration for the new Mega. The perfect partnership between rear shock technology & frame kinematics has always been in the very root of its thought process when developing bikes & the new Mega with its brand new 'metric' shock standard is no different. Designed to work perfectly with both air & coil sprung rear shocks, Nukeproof has addressed some of the areas that it felt could be enhanced on over the previous design such as hardware improvements & higher spec shocks across the board The new Mega Carbon 275 Worx utilises the brand new Rock Shox Super Deluxe rear shock & hardware now comprises of a wider spaced 25mmx 8mm front mount, with a rocker link mounted bearing system to improve shock sensitivity & reduce the amount of wear through heavy usage. This combination adds even more stiffness to the chassis through these more secure fixtures & the ‘ Metric' rear shock system with increased bushing overlap. High in Fibre. Leaning on its experience from the development of its award-winning Warhead Carbon handlebar range, Nukeproof has spent 4 years in the development of the brand new Mega Carbon 275 Worx. Utilising a blend of the highest quality carbon fibre composites, the Mega Carbon 275 Worx has been hand crafted with 1 goal in mind.. Winning! Not only is the chassis now significantly lighter than its aluminium counterpart, the strength & reliability of the frame have been vastly enhanced enabling every rider to push harder, faster & with more confidence than ever before Tested on the toughest of terrain & in the most varied conditions by Enduro World Series Winner Sam Hill, the Mega Carbon 275 Worx sets out to tackle every ride with its trademark attitude.
