by Pinkbike Staff  
We are proud to welcome Jacob Dickson and his family to Nukeproof Factory Racing. Irish National Champion, BDS Junior Champion, 3rd place overall in the Downhill World Cup Series and a World Champs Bronze medal is an amazing CV to have at the age of 18. Jacob has proven his ability to ride at the highest level and will be aiming to challenge the world's elite riders in the 2016 UCI Downhill World Championship. He joins our elite racing program racing under the Nukeproof Factory banner alongside our existing program with the CRC-Paypal factory team.

bigquotesI'm really happy to be a part of the Nukeproof family. I'm looking forward to the 2016 season aboard my Nukeproof pulse, I felt really comfortable on the bike the first time I rode it, she handles like a beauty, we can give all the boy at Nukeproof a big pat on the back because they have made one hell of a Machine, I cannot thank them enough for their help in 2016 and hopefully many years to come! - Jacob Dickson
