Sam Hill made the move to Nukeproof this year and he’ll be riding this Nukeproof Pulse in the upcoming downhill races. During Sea Otter, he chose to run the Rook for most of the weekend. Check out his downhill bike inside.
Sam’s bike is outfitted with a variety of mostly SRAM and Nukeproof components. Wheels are the Mavic Deemax Ultimate’s and tires are Schwalbe. You can learn more about the Nukeproof Pulse here. If you’re looking for Nukeproof product, be sure to check out Fanatik Bike shop.
Sam has been working with Nukeproof on a Sam Hill Signature Series. This currently includes things like the bars, stem, seatpost, grips, and seat.
Suspension duties are handled by RockShox Boxxer WC up front and a Vivid in the rear. Rockshox revamped the production Vivid’s recently and we can see that the changes they implemented were tested out with riders like Sam Hill.
He’s running SRAM X0 DH cranks and e.thriteen’s LG1+ on here currently.
