At A Glance
- 160mm aggressive trail bike
- SRAM GX Eagle 12-speed groupset
- Rockshox Lyrik Select fork
- Rockshox Deluxe Select+ shock
- Sonder Alpha UK Made | 27.5" Rear | 29" Front wheelset
Business in the front...
Designed from the ground up as a true mullet build. Evol has all the control and speed benefits of a 29er over rough terrain with improved handling, weight saving and tighter cornering thanks to the 27.5" rear wheel. Long (but not ultra-long), low and slack geometry inspires confidence when descending at high speeds while the low bottom bracket means you can throw it hard into every corner.
Custom tuned suspension
The tried and tested 160mm Horst link design keeps the suspension active when braking; with a leverage curve that's fine-tuned to maximise performance downhill while maintaining efficient pedalling uphill. We've worked with SRAM to produce a 160mm travel rear shock that's custom-tuned for the Evol and made sure those benefits are felt across a wide range of rider size and weight.
Pedal up. Fly down.
Combined with a 160mm Rockshox fork Evol floats over rough ground and carries speed through the gnarliest lines. It pedals well too; as the geometry gives a comfortable neutral riding position keeping your weight central so you won’t waste energy on the uphill slogs (save it for the descent!).
Details matter
The Evol was designed and tested in the UK – in every season. And we’ve been obsessive when it comes to the little details that matter. Custom butted 6061 aluminium tubing gives the perfect mix of weight, stiffness and durability. There’s internal cable and stealth dropper routing for clean lines, dampened with foam liners for a quiet ride.
Your dream build
Simply put, the Evol is our dream built into a custom-butted alloy reality. An enthusiastic and capable Enduro-lite trail bike designed for enhanced fun-factor as you’re ragging it round the trail. You could take the Evol to an Enduro race, but it’s equally at home on a long day at the local trails.
WHY SRAM GX EAGLE?
Simple, light, tough, and reliable; the SRAM GX Eagle understands that when adventure is on the cards, all you want to do is put your feet on the pedals and ride. No faff. The 12 speed, 10 – 50 tooth groupset combines easy-going versatility with maximum performance, giving crisp shifting, quiet operation, and silky smooth pedalling feel.
A super wide gear range lets you dictate your pace, whether you’re tackling tough inclines, sprinting on the flats, or letting loose on the descents. An open design facilitates mud clearance and boosts durability. The GX crankset, with 2 tooth profile chainring, bolsters ultimate chain control, and Flowlink technology enhances chain guiding, increases longevity, and heightens wear resistance.

Features
Goldilocks Geometry
Long, slack and low geometry gives a confidence inspiring and forgiving ride downhill.
Chainstay length progresses through the size range to maintain consistent weight distribution for riders of all heights.
Metric Shock Standard
Designed around metric shock sizing standard, with lengthened shocks and shorter strokes that increase bushing overlap for more smooth, supple, sensitive and reactive suspension action. We've worked with SRAM to produce a rear shock that's specifically tuned for the Evol - and made sure those benefits are felt across a wider range of rider size and weight.
160mm travel at the front and rear lets you carry higher speeds over rough ground and choose gnarlier lines on steeper downhill sections.
Horst link suspension design
The tried and tested Horst Link suspension design allows the suspension to stay active when braking. We've fine-tuned the suspension leverage curve to maximise performance on the downhill while maintaining efficient uphill pedalling - so no need for climb switches.
Business in the front
Evol has been designed from the ground up as a true mullet build. All the control and speed benefits of a 29er over rough ground, with improved handling, weight saving and tighter cornering thanks to the 27.5" rear wheel.
Clearance for up to 29 x 2.6" tyres up front and 27 x 2.6" at the back.
Universal Derailleur Hanger UDH
Keeping up with industry standards, Evol uses a UDH hanger. They're widely available so you can get rolling again sooner after any mid-ride mishaps!
The UDH also makes Evol compatible with the latest SRAM Transmission groupsets.
Internal Cable Routing
Internal routing in the front triangle makes for clean lines and tidy cables, with dampened foam liners for a quiet ride.
