Nukeproof Reactor 290 ST Review
Ludwig Döhl
You are mainly using it for on moderate to demanding trails? Then throw the Reactor 290 ST onto your favorites list. No matter how rowdy the ride gets: when shredding the Nukeproof Fully, the 66,3 degree head tube angle and the long wheelbase ensure a pretty chilled handling. The seating position is sporty. Despite this criticism, the coherent overall concept makes the Nukeproof Fully to on moderate to demanding trails a buying recommendation in the price range 6799 Euro range.
