Quality

Quality is without doubt one of the most important factors that we consider when buying bikes, parts, accessories or clothing. As you’d imagine it’s especially important when buying Mountain Bikes. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of Nukeproof Dissent 275 RS DH Bike.

The first thing is material. Looking at what Nukeproof Dissent 275 RS DH Bike is made of will give you a really good idea of the quality overall. Take a look at the specs above and you should be able to see the material. It’s then up to you to decide if it meets your expectation.

Similarly you’ll also want to spend some time looking at the features too. Again the table above, listing the features will give you a really good overview. However you should think about the sort of features that you’d expect when buying new Mountain Bikes. It’s worth writing a list of the “must-have” features so that you don’t end up compromising and missing some important features, or alternatively end up buying an unnecessarily high specced product.

There’s also a lot of merit in checking out the brand of the product and looking at the various brands that are selling Mountain Bikes. Brands like Nukeproof are of courses extremely well respected in the cycling community so you know you’re getting a fantastic product with them. But if you’re undecided on your product you should write up a list of brands that you’d be happy to buy. It’s a great way of filtering and narrowing down the number of products when you’re searching.

Next up you’ll want to think about the price and use that as a guide to set your expectations of the quality. If you’re buying the cheapest of the options in the Mountain Bikes category you should probably expect it to not be of as good quality as the most expensive. It sounds obvious of course. But this is where you can get a bit clever and use your combination of features, specs, materials and other factors to work together to get a really good quality product at the best price. We often draw up a list of “must-haves” and use these as filters when shopping online so that you’re only seeing products that meet your criteria. You can then sort by Price>Low to get the best deals.


Comparing Prices

Price, as you would imagine, is the most popular reason for someone buying one product over another. It is the single most important factor in choosing the majority of products we buy. The same goes for Mountain Bikes.

It’s at this stage of the buying process, when you’re looking at different options, that you should set a budget. Do some research to understand how much roughly you can expect to pay for the sort of level of product that you’re looking for. Then match that to your own personal circumstance and how much you can afford to spend. This will really help you in narrowing down the right product for you.

Nukeproof Dissent 275 RS DH Bike Reviews

Reading reviews is an amazing way of getting a good feel for a product without actually being able to try it or see it first.

There are two different types of reviews, and we also recommend reading both.

1. Expert reviews – In the cycle industry there are loads of really reliable trusted resources for expert reviews. For example if you’re looking to buy a new bike, BikeRadar Bike Reviews are great.

2. Customer reviews – these are probably your best resource for information. There’s no finances or influence involved, they’re purely just honest reviews from customers that have bought and used the product. The reason we love customer reviews so much is because no matter if their view is good or bad, there’s a very good chance that it will be honest and unbiased.

Our best advice is to head over to Chain Reaction Cycles and read the Nukeproof Dissent 275 RS DH Bike reviews there.

It will really help future buyers just like you, when they’re looking to buy Mountain Bikes.

  • Description: Nukeproof Dissent 275 RS DH Bike (XO1)Designed to make the most of every daring downhill run, this 2020 take on Nukeproof’s dominating Dissent MTB has racing in its DNA. Constructed in conjunction with a number of the world’s most prolific DH racers, the Dissent platform boasts podium-placing pedigree, thanks to Sam Hill’s endeavours in the Crankworx Festival’s Garbanzo Downhill race. New and Improved Nukeproof FrameCentred around a sturdy and supportive frameset which keeps you poised and primed for the most exhilarating downhill dives, this 275 model has a simplified design to maintain a low weight and a stiffened front triangle for unrivalled handling. A more progressive leverage rate for increased mid-stroke-support enhances the bike’s pump efficiency, sets it higher in the travel and improves control in the corners as you hunt for silverware. Low-Weighted, High-Performance, Alloy Suspension BikeIn a move away from the Fallout Linkage of its stablemate, the Pulse, the Dissent’s rocker link is situated on the outside of the seat tube to minimise the frame weight while maximising the front triangle stiffness. The suspension platform also uses a push, rather than a pull link, reducing the loads and stresses on the frame, saving further weight and improving durability. The Main pivot flip chips are fast and simple to change and offer a tailored factory set up for every rider. Top Level ComponentryComing complete with a custom hydroformed 6061 aluminium tubeset, a 63-degree head angle and 200mm of travel via the new Dissent platform, this bold and speedy Nukeproof leaves no trail unturned on its way to glory. A RockShox Boxxer Ultimate fork and a Super Deluxe Coil Ultimate DH RC shock take care of every bump and bang on the way down, while the SRAM XO1 7-Speed gives you the power and efficiency to climb right back up the mountain. A reactive and powerful set of SRAM Code R disc brakes do a sterling job of reining in the Mavic Deemax DH 27.5″ wheels and their Maxxis Assegai tyres, keeping you in consummate control of every rowdy ride on this devilishly daring Dissent.
