Scoutin' About, Part Deux. Nukeproof Scout 2020

When dirty children get wild in the mud. To celebrate the launch of the Scout 275 & 290 into 2020, Scoutin' About is back for Part Deux.
Despite its lack of rear end bounce, its a wildly capable bike and in the right hands a real weapon. It's our do it all Hardcore hardtail. No worries sending the park or a mini downhill, but equally at home on a nice gentle XC ride. The scout is a go anywhere do anything hardtail.
Thanks to Leeds Bike Park for letting us film on some of their trails. Any mess left from the mucky riders was cleaned up after us.

Riders: Elliott Heap, Nigel Page & Lil Robbo
Music: "Lord of Garbage" The Mad Doctors

Something so satisfying about seeing someone on a hardtail send it

[@NukeProofBikes1]

Simplicity is so satisfying

[@thetrailtrawler2602]

Nukeproof very true but I do love my mega at the same time

[@danielgraham-keighley7326]

I’m looking to buy a 2020 scout expert I’m 5ft 10in the website says med and large which would be best?

[@thetrailtrawler2602]

Daniel Graham-Keighley I’m not 100% sure but it sounds like you’d be right between a medium and large at that height so it would depend if you like a bigger bike to go fast or a smaller one to throw around more maybe

[@godscreation111]

Was wondering if It can take a beating, that's a definite yes🥰

[@wusselfussel]

Definitely on my wanna-have-list for 2020. A Nukeproof Scout AND some skills. Damn.

Yeah well, I just noticed it is sold out everywhere. At least from germany.

I grew up skating. Got into mtb a bit over a year ago. This video reminds me of the skate videos I enjoyed most. Fuzzy rockin' riffs, dudes with skills not taking them selves too seriously, and rippin' stuff up and having a blast with friends. I've already been considering a Scout as my first bike upgrade. This vid helps seal the deal. 🤘🏻😝🤙🏻

[@benoitjodoin376]

I had the exact same vibe as soon as I saw this video, reminded me of all those Santa Cruz/Powell Peralta vids with a thrashy atmosphere/soundtrack. To me, riding a hardtail is pretty much like skateboarding when it was a crime. It's an attitude (old men will relate:) The NP Scout is amazing and lovin' it!

[@Qwiggsy]

They're my local trails. All done by volunteers. Has a really nice little cafe as well. Really cool placr

[@toooldfortwowheels2048]

Leeds Urban Bike Park getting absolutely hammered there!

[@superawesomefuntimego]

Props to Nukeproof for making great such a kick butt hardtail! Aggressive hardtails are so much fun, I sold my short travel FS because I was actually usually faster and having more fun on my HT. Kept my 160mm 29er for more when I want more squish.

[@Eurystheas]

Hi guys, i m stuked between two alternatives: 27.5 medium size or 29er medium size that gives you the choice to fit also 27.5+ wheels according to Nukeproof? Will the 29er medium with 27.5+ wheels feel close to the simple 27.5 medium bike? I try to stay with one bike ! Please enlight me 😩

[@MrLegolasegal]

Nice 🚴🚴

[@joshuawagner4872]

I love the 290 expert and maybe I will buy one, but I am 185cm tall and have a 90cm leg length. Should I buy the large or the extra large one???

[@chugmtbnovice5241]

🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@GlennChu]

What size frames is everyone riding in the video? According to the size chart on Chain Reaction I'm on the upper end of Medium so I'm not sure if I should get a medium or size up to a large (I'm 5' 10.25" with a 31.5" inseam)
