Nukeproof Digger Comp 2022

Nukeproof Digger Comp 2022

The Digger Comp offers outstanding all-terrain performance that is ideal for daily commuting, long-distance bike packing adventures and singletrack trail riding. It features a triple-butted aluminium frame and carbon fork for a sublime balance of durability, stiffness and style at a low weight. Nukeproof has also equipped it with a fast-shifting Shimano GRX 1x11-Speed groupset and a wide-ranging 11-42 Tooth cassette and powerful GRX hydraulic disc brakes. It also rolls upon Tubeless Ready Nukeproof Neutron wheels wrapped in high-grip Schwalbe G-One BITE 45c tyres.

What started during an intoxicated conversation some years ago, has ended up as a cult product in the Nukeproof range. Inspired by Nukeproof athletes and their desire for a do-it-all training bike with something a little extra; the Digger is a versatile vessel, blending “gravel bike” performance with the soul of a mountain bike. Be it commuting to work, gravel ride, overnight adventures rides, pub bike or doing some unimaginable riding like Elliot Heap in our Digger edits, wherever you aim the Digger it will go.

Last updated in 2018, the Digger was due a refresh. The Gravel/Adventure category has evolved a lot over the last few years. Nukeproof wanted the V3 design to bring the Digger bang up to date with new features and geometry to make it even more versatile. The Digger was already a great bike, now even better taking the best ingredients from the V2 and evolving into the V3.
