Got the Digger for $1200 and the Fox TC for $350, both on clearance. The PNW Range pedals in concrete were a nice color match for the logo. Roval Terra C wheels. I come from mountain biking and ride this thing almost exclusively on gravel with some sections of serious chunk and occasional single track so I love the dropper post and wider bars. Feel free to tell me my seat angle is janky, I keep messing with it.

I have the same bike and love it. With that being said I too would play with my seat angle far too often. It felt like I just couldn’t get comfortable.
The dropper bars that were shipped with our bikes are terrible. I would spend the vast majority of my time (1000km+) riding ontop of the bars near the hood. Not practical to sit and ride on the drops.
I suspect Nukeproof did this so that when you are descending down a hill with more mtb style terrain you can sit in the drops while standing.
After swapping them out to a specialized hover bar (with a small riser) i haven’t nearly been as uncomfortable. I can completely use the drops as needed and ride comfortably within them.
Check out my post history, there should be two post back to back that sort of illustrate what I am talking about.
Anyways! Enjoy the sweet ride man.
Nukeproof Gang!

Hows that fork btw? I slapped a redshift suspension stem on mine and love it. Really takes the roughness away from the ride. Was toying with a suspension fork upfront but decided on trying the suspension stem
Instead.
