Evil Bikes release the Undead to UK riders
2013 sees the release of the long awaited carbon downhill bike from Evil Bikes, the Undead.
It’s fair to say that Evil Bikes have been on quite a journey during the companies lifetime with as many highs as there have been lows but through blood and sweat they have kept the beast alive. 2013 sees the release of the new carbon downhill bike the Undead, which has jumped the pond and is available in the UK right now from Silverfish UK. A high pressure moulded carbon fibre constructed main frame wraps Evil’s Delta-Link suspension system to give the Undead 203mm of rear travel and a low race ready weight.
Evil are a brand forged through passion by a family of designers and engineers which share a common love of mountain biking and it’s through their passion Evil’s heart beat remains strong. Their latest creation the Undead is a downhill bike unlike the world has ever seen. Constructed from carbon fibre the Undead’s frame looks like it has been crafted by Beelzebub himself and with its raw matt black carbon finish and stealth looking angles it will have you selling your soul to ride one. Based on design legend Dave Weagle’s Delta Suspension System the Undead shares a lot of the geometry and ride attributes which made the Revolt so popular but tips the scales at just over 10Ibs, a whole 3Ibs lighter than its predecessor, making it more heaven than hell on the trail.
They say that the Devil is in the detail and the Undead is no exception. Flip Chip geometry gives you the ability to tune your BB height while upfront the bike features an adjustable head angle giving you the ability to go from a steep set-up to a slack one without the need for additional headset cups. Out of the box dampening duties for the 203mm of travel are handled by a Fox RC4 Kashima rear shock which is protected by a removable carbon mud guard and a replaceable ISCG mounts is the perfect partner for your e*thirteen chain guide.
