The widely anticipated bike – as ridden by the TeamChainReactionCycles.com/Nukeproof downhill team – is on sale now and judging by the MBUK review, it’s been worth the wait. There are anodized black, silver or ‘NukeProof yellow’ frames available either with no shock, a Cane Creek Double Barrel shock or a RockShox Vivid out back.
Here are a few snippets from the review: “Once we had the shock dialled in, the Scalp really came alive – the rear end reacting well to big hits, and retaining great small-bump sensitivity. There was barely any pedal kickback when you really put the power down on the rough stuff.”
“The Scalp turns on rails, with a real confidence-inspiring dark side, and persuades you to stay off the brakes into the next corner and let the bike do what it was made for.”
“Great performance at a reasonable price.”
