2021 Nukeproof Scout hardtail will get spec updates and Professional mannequin

Nukeproof’s 2021 Scout hardtail is, based on the corporate, geared toward doing a little bit of every part and excels once you level it downhill or at a bounce.

Nukeproof says it’s made for “XC hacks, laps of the paths [and] shredding technical enduro/downhill runs,” as confirmed in our review of a earlier incarnation of the identical bike.

The body is unchanged from the 2020 mannequin (the Scout has been within the model’s lineup since 2014, by the way), however Nukeproof is now providing a brand new Professional construct in each 27.5in and 29in wheel size options.

This implies there are three builds in every wheel measurement, ranging in value from a £1,100 to £2,100. Two frame-only choices (27.5- and 29-inch) are additionally accessible for £400.
