The new Nukeproof Megawatt Carbon is a carbon-framed version of the 2022 eMTB Bike of the Year-winning alloy Megawatt, and is one of the first bikes on the market to use SRAM\u2019s new Eagle Powertrain motor system.<\/div>\n

Based around Nukeproof\u2019s very successful Mega<\/a> frame, the Megawatt Carbon is designed for big days on big mountains, hitting enduro lines or getting stuck in between the race tapes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Nukeproof has partnered with SRAM on its new Eagle Powertrain motor system<\/a>\u00a0and was the first (of four brands) to get a mule over to SRAM for testing.<\/p>\n

Working as SRAM\u2019s development partner, Nukeproof was both able to offer feedback on the new ebike motor<\/a> system and receive it about the Megawatt, in order to hone its riding characteristics.<\/p>\n

After around two years of testing, including the 2022 E-Enduro World Series (now E-EDR), the latest Megawatt Carbon was born.<\/p>\n
