Product details
Introducing the Nukeproof Mega 297 Pro Alloy Bike (GX Eagle), the latest generation of the award-winning MTB, now available in a 297 mixed-wheel size platform. With 4 Enduro World Series titles to its name, the Mega has become synonymous with racing and has been constantly developed to meet the demands of our riders and customers alike.
Constructed fully out of T6061-T6 Aluminium, this seriously capable machine features all new suspension Kinematics designed to be more subtle off the top while remaining progressive and predictable. Anti-Squat is used to create an effective pedaling bike that can be thrashed through technical terrain. The Mega 297 features a front 29” wheel and a 27.5” wheel out back, maximizing grip and rolling efficiency while ensuring nimble handling and extra clearance for riders.
Other key features of this MTB include SRAM UDH, a tube-in-tube design for easy cable installation, an all-new geometry, and room for a 750ml water bottle inside the main front triangle. The dynamic saddle offset optimizes seated rider weight distribution on each frame size, achieved through bespoke seat angles. Additionally, the seat tube is shorter overall with a bigger maximum insert depth, allowing a longer dropper post if required.
Experience the pursuit for performance with the Nukeproof Mega 297 Pro Alloy Bike (GX Eagle), the ultimate Enduro bike.
