According to designer, Mikhail Smolyanov, the Nu'Clear is inspired by the Atompunk style of the 1950s and 60s, featuring straight lines and mild curves.
The Nu'Clear sets itself apart from other motorcycles as it incorporates glass into its load-bearing parts, such as the hubs of each wheel, in addition to its design elements. While the chassis is still constructed of metal, this combination gives the Nu'Clear a standout appearance. The transparent fuel tank, filled with ethanol, adds to the motorcycle's unique look.

Smolyanov mentions that the Nu'Clear could potentially be an electric bike, but for his personal experimentation, he equipped it with a boxer engine that emerges from the two sides and is accented with fins that resemble batteries in a nuclear reactor. This design choice also allows for the transparent fuel tank to be visible.
Multiple versions of the Nu'Clear were designed, including V1 with a larger fuel tank, V3 with opaque paneling at the base, and V4 featuring shallow-arched metal channels to provide strength and character. While some parts of the motorcycle couldn't be made with glass and had to be constructed with alternative materials, such as metal and rubber, the majority of the motorcycle remains transparent, providing a never-before-seen view of its components and parts for both the rider and onlookers.
