[ad3]<\/p>\n

Most of us who pay attention to the bike industry are well aware that\u00a0Evil Bikes had their fair share of trials and tribulations a few years back. More recently however, they seem to have pulled themselves up by the bootstraps and are regaining consumer confidence. It’s safe to say that “The Following”, their 120mm travel 29″ wheeled trail monster is the first bike from version 2.0 of Evil’s camp that has played a key role in showing that they’re here to stay. With the most aggressive geometry set on any 29″ bike to date, we had to give it a go and see what the hype is all about.<\/p>\n

After a few hard lessons learned in things like what type of hardware is best and which factories are worthwhile\u00a0Evil have made leaps and bounds in sorting things out. \u00a0We can attest to this knowing that they are now producing their frames in an industry leading factory.<\/p>\n

Details<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Evil seems to have ticked all of the boxes here. \u00a0The Following is well thought out and reeks of attention to detail. \u00a0The DELTA(Dave’s Extra Legitimate Travel Apparatus) system is driven by two dogbone links that are pulled downwards by a flip chip that adjusts the geometry without affecting shock rate. \u00a0A down tube guard is nice reassurance in protecting from errant rocks coming off of the front wheel. The construction\u00a0is BEEFY as you can see by the headtube. \u00a0Internally routed stealth dropper routing keeps it clean aesthetically. \u00a0A small gripe was that water can get into the frame via the orifices which\u00a0the cables route through – this has been addressed on the new Insurgent<\/a>\u00a0via rubber grommets that seal things off. \u00a0The rear brake and derailleur routing are sleek and non intrusive, and the Following does accept a front derailleur for those who feel the need. \u00a0We weren’t a huge fan of the Shimano rear axle so we swapped it for a solid one after a couple of weeks. \u00a0ISCG05 tabs let consumers know that the bike welcomes being built up with a chainguide. \u00a0Lastly, a very well designed rubber chainstay guard protects your investment and keeps it running quietly by damping chain slap.<\/p>\n

\nGeometry<\/span>
\n<\/strong>
\nThe Following boasts some wild numbers for a 29″ bike. \u00a0A 13″ BB, 66.8\u00ba head angle and 16.9″ chainstays are figures you almost never see on a wagon wheeler. \u00a0They are screaming for rowdy descents but anyone who is super concerned with climbing will likely be a bit dubious, but rest assured the frame\u00a0strikes a nice balance and it has options galore. \u00a0 We tested the Following\u00a0as a frameset – retail is $2,599 US by the way. \u00a0We \u00a0bolted up our own choice set of top notch parts that we’re familiar with so we could really just focus on the frame. \u00a0Let’s see how this space aged looking beast did out on the trails of Northern California.

On the Trail<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We tested the Following with a 130mm RockShox Pike RCT3. When we first got the bike, we had bolted up a 46mm offset version of the fork. After chatting with Kevin Walsh, the owner of Evil, he absolutely insisted we try the bike with the more stable 51mm offset Pike. It was a bit of a serendipitous accident, but we were quite stoked to try the bike both ways and see firsthand why Kevin was so adamant about running the offset he intended for the bike. We also got to test out two different rear shock tunes and rode them with a varying number of volume reducers.<\/p>\n

\"_DSC9368\"<\/p>\n

Climbing<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

As one would expect, based sheerly off of the numbers the Following’s wasn’t designed with with ascents being the priority – at least not the way we set ours up. \u00a0That said, geometry isn’t everything – the suspension was incredibly composed and it was one of the most neutral pedaling bikes we’ve ever ridden. \u00a0At times we had to check to see if our shock was locked out or not while pointed uphill, and quite often we chose not to even bother using the lockout. \u00a0 So, with regard to how the bike climbed in terms of geometry and body position, it’s more complicated than one would think. \u00a0As mentioned earlier, we rode it with a 46mm offset fork initially. \u00a0With that fork and while using the “DELTA” link in the high BB\/steep head angle position, the bike climbed very very well. \u00a0It steered quickly in switchbacks, the seat angle was a bit steeper and we felt it was a bit easier to get our weight up towards the front of the long 626mm top tube. \u00a0When we went with a more relaxed fork and head\/seat angle we struggled to get our weight forward on the really steep climbs but found that sliding the seat forward a bit helped offset that. In the long run we deliberately chose to set this bike with a very downhill oriented bias so we can’t really knock the way it climbed with those given settings. \u00a0Either way, getting to ride\u00a0it both ways was a testament to its versatility. \u00a0Consumers can set the bike up both ways and any way in between – especially if they decide to dabble with varying head angles via +\/- 1\u00ba or +\/-2\u00ba headset cups that Evil offer.<\/p>\n

\"_DSC9432\"<\/p>\n

Descending<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Right away, our 6 foot tall, lanky tester was quite pleased to be able to run a 29″ trail bike with just a 50mm stem. \u00a0Quite often we’ve ridden other bikes in this category that we feel are rather capable, but their short top tubes bar us from running anything shorter than 70mm, leaving us a bit hesitant and holding back at times. \u00a0On our first few rides in the high position with the 46mm Pike we were already impressed and floored by the not only the rowdy terrain we could easily tackle on the Following, but also just how poppy and playful it was. \u00a0The super short chainstays allowed us to crack turns off and manual with the greatest of ease. \u00a0 The low BB let us really dig into the turns with a\u00a0mind boggling\u00a0amount of traction. \u00a0It was hard to believe we were on a 29er.\"Screen<\/p>\n

After a few weeks we worked our way towards a full 180\u00ba regarding setup. \u00a0Starting with switching to the low bb height and then swapping to\u00a0the 51mm offset Pike, we eventually set the Following up as the most aggressive 29″ bike we’ve ridden to date.<\/p>\n

\"_DSC9419\"<\/p>\n

Coming off of a 160mm travel bike this took a surprisingly short amount of time to adjust to. \u00a0We feel that on most terrain, the Following could hold its own against the average “Enduro” bike these days – it’s just different. It’s more of an all day bike. \u00a0In typical 29″ wheeled fashion, it carries speed better than 27.5″ wheeled bikes, but due to sporting a bit less travel, you have to ride it a bit differently. \u00a0You need to be a bit more careful with your lines and avoid the big holes and G-outs. \u00a0In turn, the big wheels take the edge off on chatter, provide more grip and want to stay up – it’s crazy geometry makes it freakishly light on it’s feet. In terms of handling, we’ve been literally blown away and we haven’t ridden anything quite like it. \u00a0It flat out decimates every other 120mm trail bike on the descents. Especially those that are a bit more on the traditional side of things.<\/p>\n

\"DSC2347\"<\/p>\n

We are huge fans of Dave Weagle’s suspension designs and this is no exception. \u00a0The dual progressive leverage rate curve is possibly the best\u00a0tuned system we’ve ridden to date. \u00a0It’s light off the top, supportive in the middle and resists bottoming nicely. \u00a0That’s everything anyone\u00a0could ask for in the suspension world. DELTA’s kinematics definitely pair well with the RockShox Monarch Debonair that the Following is spec’d with and it’s evident that the guys at Evil put some time in getting the tune just right.<\/p>\n

Speaking of the rear shock – after a few weeks of riding, Kevin sent us an updated “Enduro” tune. \u00a0With both shocks, we worked our way up from zero “bottomless ring” volume reducers in the shock and eventually settled into using 3 on both units. \u00a0 For those who are unfamiliar, adding volume reducers to a shock is how you can build a bit more progression into the suspension and make it less linear in nature.<\/p>\n

\"_DSC9315\"<\/p>\n

While we didn’t notice a massive difference between the two tunes, the second seemed to resist bottoming a slightly better and provided a bit\u00a0more pop while still having very controlled rebound. \u00a0Speaking of pop, we’ve never ridden a 29″ wheeled bike that was even close to this comfortable in the air. \u00a0EVER. \u00a0This bikes loves to jump, pop bonus lines, drift and slap turns. \u00a0It’s a freak.<\/p>\n

Overall<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In summary, we hate to sound cliche but this is “the downhiller’s trail bike”. \u00a0That phrase has been used before but it couldn’t be more fitting here. \u00a0While climbing isn’t its forte, given how many options Evil incorporates into the frame\u00a0regarding setup and geometry it can be set up to climb incredibly well – especially if you slap on a 120mm fork (which we never tried). \u00a0Regardless, Evil’s marketing is crystal clear\u00a0–\u00a0this bike is aimed squarely at getting rowdy\u00a0and it can do so all day without wearing you out as much as a 160mm bike – that makes it a game changer in our eyes. \u00a0Any time a bike comes along that blurs the lines of categories we get stoked. \u00a0Evil rider Aaron Bradford recently won the Trans Cascadia aboard it. \u00a0For those unfamiliar with Trans Cascadia it’s a 4 day, 17 stage race with 32,000 feet of descending in a blind format. \u00a0So yeah, you get the point, the Following is massively versatile but what’s most refreshing is just how capable and fun it has proven itself to be. \u00a0 With regards to durability we’ve had zero issues. \u00a0After our first ride, some hardware loosened – after we tightened it it settled it and hasn’t budged since. We’ve ridden it on trails that would have us puckered on a DH bike and it didn’t flinch. \u00a0What more can you ask from a 120mm bike?<\/p>\n

OK, so how does the Following stack up in terms of value? \u00a0$2,599 for a frame isn’t cheap but it isn’t sky high – for a boutique carbon fiber frame it’s a relatively standard, middle of the road price. \u00a0If it sounds steep, consider some of their full builds. \u00a0Their X1 build kit is very much value packed and comes in at $4,999 with an fantastic spec. \u00a0All in all, the Seattle brand has made a big comeback and they’re huge innovators. \u00a0It’s an exciting time to be a mountain biker when companies like Evil\u00a0are pushing the limits of geometry and design.<\/p>\n
