This is the one! Whether you're looking to reanimate your 27.5" components with a lightweight carbon fiber skeleton or create an all-new trail monster, this is the 150mm frame that'll give you the most Evil bang for your hard-earned buck. The Evil Insurgent LB Frame brings all the sporty angles and the DELTA suspension you thirst for, with the flexibility to enhance it with your build of choice.
Plastic Fantastic – Uni Directional Carbon with One Piece Molded construction from one of the best factories in the business.
Lighter Layup – The new lighter layup improved the overall ride quality, maximizing compliance and stiffness. Evil also managed to drop nearly a half pound from the overall frame weight while retaining the original ride characteristics, max rollover and grip.
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, like we said, 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 Monarch Plus RC3 Debonair – Monarch Plus provides traction-gaining suppleness, giving you more control over any type of terrain – all in a lightweight bombproof package. Proven Rapid Recovery, DebonAir and Solo Air technologies come standard for this lightweight big hitter. Now with twice the rebound range, Monarch Plus allows you to take your riding to levels you never thought possible with a short and mid travel air shock.
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.
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.
Integrated e13 Bashguard & Chainguide – Custom e13 lower guide and bash guard. Fully integrated carbon chainguide to keep that chain on.
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
