UD Carbon Frame with Internal Dropper Routing + Integrated Upper Guide
Plastic Fantastic – Uni Directional Carbon with One Piece Molded construction from one of the best factories in the business.
Delta Suspension System – The DELTA system was conceived to, among other things, achieve very complex leverage rate curves that can be used to tune for varying track conditions, spring, and damper parameters. Ultimately the design achieves a high degree of suppleness early in the travel, with a very predictable high traction stage through the middle and a bottomless ramp at the end of the travel.
Flip Chip – At the heart of the Delta System is a simple chip that Evil calls the Flip Chip. At its most basic, the Flip Chip allows riders to change bottom bracket height and head angle by flipping the chip. This adjustment leaves the leverage rate curve and orientation of the linkage unchanged. The slight offset in bearing bore creates a simple interface that allows the rider to personalize their ride. It's about finding what works for the way you ride and the terrain you ride in.
RockShox Super Deluxe RC3 Debonair – The directive was simple. Engineer a shock that does for rear-suspension performance what Pike did for forks. Simple? Don’t bet on it. A gamble? Absolutely. It required a complete change in the way we approach shock design. It meant focusing on performance first and leaving old constraints behind. And it gave us a clear path to develop the world’s lowest-friction shock — Super Deluxe. Metric sizing gives Super Deluxe significantly increased bushing overlap, which, together with a sophisticated new bushing profile, virtually eliminates friction in the shock. A new damper holds the shock high in its stroke and offers unparalleled traction. Unshackled from the old obstacles of shock design, Super Deluxe is free to tackle new ones — on the trail. This changes everything.
Shock Adjustments – 3-Position Compression (Open, Pedal, Lock) | External Rebound | Air Spring Pressure
Sag Meter – Evil added a fancy integrated SAG meter into the non-drive side Delta Link to make suspension set up easy. Push it forward, sit on your bike, adjust air pressure to 30%, then shred.
Integrated e13 Chainguide – Fully integrated carbon chainguide to keep that chain on. Lower chainguide and bash guard compatible.
Internal Cable Routing – Internal routing for stealth dropper posts. Rear derailleur and brake routing is cleanly routed under the toptube and the rear derailleur cable is internally routed through the swingarm to keep things tidy.
Rubber Protection – Molded Rubber Downtube Protector keeps rocks and debris off the plastic and quiets the ride. Integrated rubber protection for the chainstay and seat stay to keep things peaceful and quiet in the woods.
Custom ISCG05 Mounts – Custom ISCG05 tabs to accommodate Evil's lower guide collaboration with e13 components.
Bolt On Rear Axle – Evil's new axle bolts directly into the derailleur hanger for stiff hassle-free operation.
Boost Rear Axle Spacing – 148mm x 12mm
RockShox Pike RCT3 – The new RCT3 Charger 2 damper provides a wider range of low speed compression adjustment in the Open mode, while Pedal mode has been re-tuned for excellent trail support. The firm setting has also been re-tuned to better match RockShox rear shocks, with OneLoc compatibility which allows on-the-fly suspension control.
Fork Adjustments – 3-Position Lever (Open, Pedal, Lock) | Low Speed Compression in Open Position | External Rebound | Air Spring Pressure
SRAM Descendent 6K Crankset – The Descendant 6K crankset delivers consistent performance every time out.
