A Faster, More Capable Step Into Trail Riding
The 2027 Nukeproof Tracker Race in Metallic Grey is designed for riders who want more performance, more control, and more capability than an entry‑level hardtail can offer. Building on the foundation of the Tracker Sport, the Race model introduces upgraded components, sharper handling, and a more responsive ride feel that encourages progression on real trails. Inspired by the geometry and attitude of Nukeproof’s adult hardtails, the Tracker Race gives riders a bike that feels confident, stable, and ready for more demanding terrain.
Lightweight Alloy Frame with Trail‑Focused Geometry
The Tracker Race uses a lightweight aluminium frame shaped with Nukeproof’s proven trail geometry, giving riders a balanced and confident position whether climbing, cornering, or tackling uneven ground. The frame’s proportions are designed to feel stable at speed while remaining agile enough for technical sections. Durable construction ensures it can handle the knocks and scrapes of regular trail riding, while the Metallic Grey finish gives the bike a clean, modern look that mirrors Nukeproof’s higher‑end models.
Suspension Designed for Real‑World Riding
Up front, the Tracker Sport features a Suntour XCE28 suspension fork tuned to smooth out bumps, roots, and rough surfaces, helping riders maintain control and comfort on varied terrain. The fork’s predictable feel makes it easier for new riders to navigate corners, uneven ground, and early off‑road challenges, giving the bike a composed and forgiving ride character.
Wide‑Range Drivetrain for Confident Progression
The Tracker Race is equipped with a wide‑range 9 speed Shimano CUES U4000 drivetrain designed to help riders tackle climbs, flats, and descents with confidence. The gearing is chosen to be intuitive and reliable, allowing riders to find a comfortable cadence whether exploring local paths or venturing onto more technical trails. This drivetrain gives the Tracker Race a noticeable boost in versatility and makes it easier for riders to progress their skills.
Hydraulic Disc Brakes for Strong, Predictable Stopping Power
Reliable Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes give the Tracker Race strong, consistent stopping power in all conditions, from dry hardpack to wet and muddy trails. Their predictable feel helps riders stay in control on descents and navigate technical sections with confidence, making them an essential part of the bike’s performance‑focused design.
Wheels and Tyres Designed for Real Trail Riding
The wheels and tyres are chosen to give the Tracker Race a stable, planted feel on mixed terrain. The Kenda Booster tyres offer reassuring grip without feeling heavy, helping riders maintain momentum and control as they explore more adventurous routes. Whether on gravel paths, forest trails, or local singletrack, the bike feels smooth, predictable, and ready for progression.
Metallic Grey: Sleek, Modern, and Unmistakably Nukeproof
Finished in Metallic Grey, the Tracker Race has a refined, understated aesthetic that reflects its step‑up performance. It’s clean, sharp, and ready for the trail — a bike that looks as capable as it feels.
