Nukeproof Mega Carbon Pro

The Nukeproof Mega Carbon has earned its reputation through over a decade of refinement and race-winning performance. Built around a full UD T700/800 carbon fibre chassis, the fourth-generation Mega delivers the speed, support, and composure expected from a modern long-travel enduro bike - with improved kinematics, size-specific wheel setups, and practical design features that make it both fast and easy to live with.

Carbon Frame Engineering

The Mega Carbon frame uses a blend of T700/T800 fibres to tune stiffness, compliance and strength across the chassis. The carbon layup allows Nukeproof to reduce weight while improving tracking and suspension response. Internally piped routing, 3D rubber protection, and MAX bearings ensure durability and clean, simple maintenance.

Updated, Refined Kinematics

With Nukeproof’s Horst-link suspension system, the Mega Carbon offers increased small-bump sensitivity, stable mid-stroke support, and a progressive end-stroke for confident big-hit control. Anti-squat is tuned for efficient pedalling without compromising grip or active feel on technical climbs.

Size-Specific Wheel Platforms

To keep handling consistent across the size range, the Mega uses two wheel configurations:

  • S, M, L - 297 MX (29" front / 27.5" rear)
  • XL, XXL - Full 29" front and rear

This ensures smaller sizes remain agile while larger sizes gain maximum stability and rollover.

Practical Enduro Details

Tube-in-tube cable routing simplifies setup and servicing, SRAM UDH compatibility offers broad drivetrain support, and a 750 ml bottle fits within the front triangle. Short seat tubes with deep insertion depth allow long-travel droppers across all sizes, and size-specific seat angles position riders efficiently for climbing.

Who Is It For?

The Mega Carbon Pro is built for riders who want a highly refined, fully modern enduro platform that’s ready for technical stages, alpine terrain, and fast, rough descents. Balanced, predictable, and impressively composed - it’s a race-capable bike with everyday usability baked in.

A carbon chassis for long enduro days

The fourth-generation Mega uses a full carbon chassis for its demanding enduro role. Short seat tubes and room for a full-size bottle keep long-travel dropper fit and everyday riding in the picture.

Support when the trail loads up

The Horst-link suspension is designed to stay sensitive early in the stroke and supportive through corners and compressions. The Vivid Select+ shock lets you tune the response to the rider and terrain.

Protection where the chain moves

Moulded chainstay protection helps keep chain noise and knocks away from the frame. It is a practical detail for the repeated hard riding that the Mega is built around.
