Nukeproof Cub-Scout 26 Race Mountain Bike

The Cub-Scout 26 Race feature am alloy hardtail frame that is designed with geometry that takes inspiration from Nukeproof's adult sized enduro bikes. Engineered to offer stable, agile and comfortable all-terrain performance for younger riders, Nukeproof has equipped it with a 120mm-travel Manitou Markhor suspension forks, a Shimano Deore 10-Speed groupset with a wide-ranging 11-46T cassette and powerful Clarks Clout hydraulic disc brakes. It also rolls upon Boost Nukeproof Neutron Tubeless Ready wheels wrapped in Tubeless Ready large volume 2.5 Maxxis Minion DHF tyres.

Engineered for Young Off-Road Trail Riders

The Cub-Scout 26 Race is not just another kids bike: taking inspiration from Nukeproof's award-winning Scout adult hardtail range, the Cub-Scout 26 has been designed from the ground-up as a proper mini-hardtail mountain bike. It has been designed to allow kids to learn the ropes of riding, inspire confidence on the trails and act as the perfect platform for progression. Developed and tested with the help of their own children, Nukeproof has created a class-leading lightweight kids bike range to inspire and nurture budding future World Cup or EWS winners.

The range of Cub-Scout Hardtails are available in 20, 24 or 26 options. This means that there should be a bike to suit kids of all sizes from aged 5 and up. Each bike features a lightweight custom butted 6061 Alloy frameset with bang up to date long, low and slack kids specific geometry.
