Paul Burwell
If you’re a rider that’s focused on shredding singletrack rather than bike parks, the Nukeproof Reactor Pro 290 Alloy is a superb mid-travel trail bike
- Superb balance, insanely fast singletrack shredder
- A little lightweight for burlier riders
Robin Weaver
The Reactor ST isn't as fast as some uphill, but it’s a proper demon when pointed back down
- Surefooted downhill demon
- great spec at a reasonable price
- good geometry and ride position
- Easy going but not as efficient as some uphill
- only slightly lighter than the top-spec Reactor which has more travel and a burlier build
Jessie-May Morgan

Trail Bike Hooligan: Nukeproof Reactor 275 RS Nukeproof's take on the short/mid-travel trail bike turns out to be very capable - and tons of fun to ride.
- Fun factor!
- Confidence-inspiring geometry
- Rear suspension is perfectly balanced small/big hits
- Lyrik Ultimate – plush and well controlled
- Versatile build options
- Flip Chip adjustability
- Average rear hub engagement
- Rims cause snakebites and had tubeless issues in test
- Can be a bit tricky finding the balance between front and rear suspension
- Could have a steeper seat tube angle
- Not the very best pedaling efficiency
- Finish is perfectible

Some bikes seem to dictate the type of rides you'll be going on – a lightweight cross-country whip isn't likely to lead you into the bike park, just like you probably won't find yourself at the start of a hill climb competition aboard a DH bike. It's a...
- Seat tube angle could be steeper
- Cable routing isn't fully refined
- Doesn't feel much different than an enduro bike
The Nukeproof Reactor 275 RS is awesome fun to ride. In its 27.5” guise, the Reactor is best suited for a rider looking for a do-it-all trail bike who prioritises fun over flat-out charging. If you want a more planted bike with greater ability to carry...
