Bike Check: Brooke Trine's Nukeproof Giga Freeride MTB
Brooke Trine is the real deal – a fearless rider traveling all over the United States in a built-out Sprinter, chasing dreams of freeride fame and good times on the bike.
Known for her technical skills and easygoing, fun-loving attitude, Brooke is a fan favorite to watch at jump jams and freeride competitions. We are stoked to provide her with a Giga 297 Carbon RS as she travels and shreds all over the map. With Brooke's skills and the Giga's capabilities, there's no doubt that they'll be a force to be reckoned with on the trails.
Brooke built up her bike with a 200mm dual crown fork for the big hits at Freeride Fiesta, but her Giga will primarily be a park bike – hence the SRAM X01 AXS 12-speed drivetrain. Let’s take a closer look at her custom setup.
