29/11/2023

Sharing the DNA of the infamous Scout, Nukeproof are proud to launch the Cub Scoot, plus the 14" adn 16" Cub Scouts.

While we can't guarantee the newest additions to the range will make your little person into the next Sam Hill, it's a great place to start and they are sure to have fun along the way.
With a discerning team of testers (the Nukeproof team's own kids), no stone has been left unturned in creating a range of youth bikes that are designed to inspire and give confidence off road to the next generation of mountain bikers.

Knowing that kid's bikes are 50% ridden, 50% carried by mum or dad, the full range is durable but lightweight for those inevitable 'uplift' moments!
