From the story on MBR “BCF has bought all brand intellectual property for Nukeproof as well as all existing owned assets,” “Giving BCF the right to manufacture bikes from the existing range and innovate/ launch new Nukeproof models.” I wouldn't be surprised if the deal gives Fraser Group the distribution rights for the UK, maybe that's where talk of the future etc comes from.

2/26/2025 8:28am The below is taken from the press release. Too many references to a continuing partnership and Frasers still playing some sort of role. If it was really a complete sale and separation, it would seem you would play that up and not use phrasing like that bolded. Again, pure speculation, but I'm not holding my breath: "This is an exciting...

2/26/2025 5:28am Reading between the lines, it sounds more like the current owners are simply licensing Nukeproof to BCF. This is the model that Jamie Salter and Authentic Brands Group uses with all its trademarks. It rarely if ever works out well for the brand. They talked about it a bit in the Bombhole podcast linked some pages back with Colleen Quigley...

I’d like to feel the flex on these. I had a pair of Fatbars on a dirt jumper back in the day and they were disheartening to ride with how much flex you could feel pumping transition at the jumps and in the skatepark.

2/11/2025 7:30am Its also just an FSR layout with a high pivot (and from the looks of it, terrible chain overlap on the chainring). Besides the travel swap-ability there are quite a few other bikes out there that offer the same thing, possibly even better depending on what you want. I'd personally rather be selective and buy two bikes that were purpose...

Your local bike mechanic doesn’t make enough money to enter a bike race, let alone buy a bicycle. The stock market isn’t the economy. The vast majority of americans are living one paycheck away from homelessness, in constant fear of medical debt, with less purchasing power every week due to the financialzation of the economy, stock buy-backs and sheer unregulated greed. Ymmv, of course.

I would say that most American's think the economy is bad because the top 1% make all the profit while they struggle to make ends meet on crappy wages. Half the US households don't have a 401k.
