The NEW test platform

Nukeproof Digger Factory 2020

 
 

So, here we have it and, yes, she’s a beast. We’ve purchased a new bike to test some ideas and components on, to make sure we’re happy with them before fully spec out the new bikes. We wanted to test some products first hand on our local routes so that we would see how things perform. Our starting platform for testing is a Nukeproof Digger Factory 2020. We went for a large, which is a 56cm as I’ll be doing all the component testing on this bike. We searched far and wide for something that offered us something close to a perfect gravel bike and decided on this with the thanks of Aaron at a local bike shop. It’s close, but still a way from what you’ll finally see from us. Anyway, it’s time to hit some trails and see what our updates do to improve the bike fit and ride. Oh, and for the record, the stock Nukeproof Digger Factory 2020 in a large size comes in at 10.44kg. Our first target weight will be to get her sub 10kg.
