Cannot install node-sass

I'm in an environment where I am required to run a local proxy, and I am unable to install node-sass. When I try the following:

npm install -g node-sass

I get an error:

Cannot download "https://github.com/sass/node-sass/releases/download/v4.5.3/win32-x64-48_binding.node": tunneling socket could not be established, cause=read ECONNRESET

I have already installed cntlm and configured it correctly. To verify I use the porxy server to access internet and it works fine.

The following environment variables are set

http_proxy  ->  http://localhost:3128
https_proxy ->  http://localhost:3128

Have also added the following to my .npmrc

https-proxy=http://localhost:3128
http-proxy=http://localhost:3128
proxy=http://localhost:3128

Also tried by adding slashes to the end but the result is the same.

Any clues and help would be appreciated since I have no idea how to resolve this.

Additional details:

node -v 
v6.11.4

npm -v
5.5.1

The workaround I found was to download the node-sass file from https://github.com/sass/node-sass/releases/download/v4.5.3/win32-x64-48_binding.node and then set the sass-path to the binaries downloaded:

SET_SASS_BINARY_PATH = C:\..\..\

and then doing

npm install -g node-sass

worked for me.
