    From what I've heard from my various reps...

    The components (wheels, pedals, bars, etc) SHOULD be available end of Jan, with the frames and full bike builds trickling into the stores around about late feb, early March.

    They are going to sell out fast. Get in whilst you can.

    We've ordered a fair few more than we did last year, with demo bikes also included this time around.

    Sweet thanks for the heads up, I can't wait to get a test on one. If they are an improvement on the 2012 model they will be an awesome bike.

    If you're thinking of getting a DH bike or the long travel Mega I would buy a 2012 model. Prices are going up quite a lot for 2013. The Pulse Pro is about £800 more than the Scalp Pro and the only real change is the wheelbase adjustment which is only really any use to top level racers.
    The 2012 Scalp Pro is awesome, I bought mine after test riding a Glory, TR450 & Demo, to me the Scalp was the best ride and by far the cheapest.
    Scalp's and Mega's are both very popular at DH tracks and no-one has a bad thing to say about them.
    Nukeproof's customer service is excellent. I contacted them at 4:00pm on a Friday to ask where I could go to a shop and try a couple for size, they offered to get a couple bikes to my local shop for 9:00am the next morning.
