Nukeproof Giga Dream Build
Спорт
There aren't many better days than #newbikeday! This time it's Neil's turn to build up a fresh mountain bike, a custom Nukeproof Giga enduro MTB dream build. With a mix of components from brands like Vittoria, Ergon, Crank Brothers, Spank, Fox, and SRAM, this bike is ready for everything from local singletrack through to Enduro World Cup level tracks. New bikes need to be bedded in, so Neil took it for a spin on his local trails to see how it handled!

The nukeproof giga is an amazing bike!
Clean build, also props to the music choice on this one. Jungle on the riding section works so well and I've found GMBN is consistently using great, fitting music in the videos.
always inspire when see Neil riding style, so smooth...

It's a supremely solid bike for the FoD. That being said, Neil's factory yellow giga was loud yet tasteful. Wonderfully playful chassis and more capable than I will ever be! Love mine (albeit in the sage green)

Sick bike build, and love the LTJ Bukeum 90's D&B vibes! Braaap!🤘
That bike looks awesome Neil. A less experienced rider like myself would probably not really muck around too much with bike settings but you being a serious rider, it's great seeing all the adjustments you have available to you on your bike. Nice one.
Neil, congrats on your new bike brother. It looks downright proper.
looks awesome
Awesome bike!🤟
I don't have words for describe this bike😮
Sick
Yeah! Peaty’s tubeless valve, sign 50to01, i like it and bike so pretty! Have fun!
Insane bike 💯💥🔥
I like the cosmic black Neil tbh,sick build. I'm building my giga ATM in the cream colour with 38's factory and factory transfer with pro 5's on crank brothers synthesis alloy, garbaruk cassette and xo1 gears, can't wait to get it finished this weekend. Hope I enjoy it as much as you are.👍🏻

Neil nice bike mate,looks really good in the black.
Needs a fidlock bottle so you don't scratch the frame sliding the bottle in and out... Best thing ever and almost invisiable when you don't run a bottle
Drum & Bass ❤
Crazy, what a tank.
Love my giga myself
JELLY!!!!
We need a "the don back in black" shreddit, watching him ride is so good
Thought you would have gone for the 297 for sure. Sweet rig all the same 👌🏼
That is a proper freeride machine
That’s a Dream

Hey , sweet build What tool kit you got under the top tube ?
Looks unreal just bought a 13 commencal meta sx to try get into the mtb are they a decent bike
I recently got my Giga Elite (yellow) and was keen to see what dream upgrades Neil was going to add. Guess my question is...why not a coil shock when most owners are moving from air to coil? Love the digital drivetrain idea...can you post a components list so us owners can see our aspirations/shopping list 😁😁
@1brenmaster

I run both. Coil shock for holidays and the DH days and swap out to an air shock for enduros. It's like having two different bikes. The coil ( fast shock) is super buttery while the air shock offers a better platform for peddling. I can use the leverage adjust on the frame to get both shocks in the sweet spot for each. It's a great system.
@mrvwbug4423

The X2 probably came with the frame and he didn't feel like switching it out. The Giga 290 also doesn't have the most coil friendly leverage ratio (60mm shock stroke on 170 travel), the recommendation on Gigas is to run the 297 mullet version if you want to run coil as it has a 65mm shock stroke so plays nicer with coil.

New to mtb and just picked up a used specialized fuse comp what category is that trail xc so much with mtb coming from bmx years ago
i wish i was sponsored haha
What mounting system is that for the multi tool and C02 cartridges?
Did you use the biteX oil slick hubs in this build?
Was the rear brake cable hard to insert through ?
Ok first of all that is an awesome bike! Secondly, what exactly is the piece under the down tube that you strap your tools too? And does that fit on a standard water bottle set up? Again, awesome bike!

Cheers, yes its a Nukeproof Horizon frame strap that mounts to any water bottle mounts
Heya, I've got a Giga 290 M and also using an AXS Dropper Post. If i put mine as low as you have it in the video, i am for sure running the tire into the saddle. I have to put it about 10-15cm higher until i have full clearance. Either you haven't used all the travel yet or well... i don't know what else. You ou running 27.5 in the back? I thought you said 290 in the beginning...
Nice bike, can you do a price break down?
Crushing the blacks on an all black bike build in a dark room... I can't see all the good bits!
whats the little tool set that you strap on there?
Wonder how close the Giga climbs with the Mega
May I know where I can get the Ergon saddle? Thank you! :)

It's the Ergon SM Enduro saddle, although this version with the larger ERGON logo on the side is team/sponsor only, sorry! The normal saddles look great too though!
What tyre size do Neill use ?

Why do people in England have the front break on the right side
@gmbn
11 ай бұрын
It's throughout the UK, and a few other countries too! It goes back a long way, but it has to do with the fact that we drive on the left hand side of the road, whereas countries that have a left hand front brake will typically drive on the right hand side of the road.

The bike is solid and my Ebike conversion went great. kzread.infoUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L Very smooth ride at 30mph with no problems (135 miles ridden so far). The picture is a bit deceiving - there is WAY less space in the center of the frame than it shows. The suspension connection takes up the entire thing. So I needed to attach my battery on the bottom of the frame and my controller on the top. Instructions for assembly were lacking but honestly it wasn't too hard to figure out even though I have very little bike knowledge. Watched some youtube videos on adjusting the disk brakes but that was it. Still, I am loving it and very happy with the purchase.
How much does it weigh?
Sweet bike build, not too keen on the red lighting, sorry DOP 🤘❤️🌈🕊️🌎

Sweet bike! But no dream build of mine will have an X2 shock. Too unreliable in my experience.
Add some RGB light parts and it would be my dream build! 🌈 -oops wrong kind of build-
Chainstays are too short
“So dry”, this must have been filmed a while ago.
Come on, mate. Take a hint. You say "pizza" and "Mazza" the same way. It's not rocket science.
