Whoa! Evil Bikes new gravel bike. Different

[12snap]

I just got an email about this new gravel bike from Evil Bike Co. Very different. Bringing the new school, long reach, short stem, slack angles from mountain bikes to gravel.

awful name for a bike.

What’s the difference between that and a ‘cross bike?

This is much more of a monstercross bike rather than a CX bike.

Think touring vs racing/road bikes

Uhhh...the irony....

CHAMOIS_HAGAR would make a great username here....of maybe CHAMOIS_DAVIS_JR.... the possibilities are endless really..

On topics though, I'm fully in love with the look and purpose of that bike. I'm still waiting for my EVIL Following MB (More-Better) to get delivered.....and now this...

I wonder if the spawn of the Chamois Hagar will be the Chamois Ishmael...

That was a joke. See the thread, “Differences between a cross vs. gravel bike.”

What exactly does it mean to “exude stoke”?

It’s the year 2040, people have to use puns or face the NBC’s The Office death squads.

Not sure what I would personally do with this but I’m sure there are some who will see this as the right tool for the lay of the roads and trails in their hood.

I'd like to ride it just to see how the geometry rides for gravel. I think this would be a fun commuter. It's not much different from a rigid moutain bike, though.

he might make cabo wabo tequila but his vibe does not “exude stoke“ the same way dlr doing cheerleader toe touches off the drum riser does.
montrose has like two good songs.

RIGHT NOW someone is shredding the gnar for the first time

GT did that years ago

This is basically the perfect (non-racing) gravel bike there could be up here (Evil Global HQ's hood). The gravel goes straight up and straight down on chunky, loose logging roads with regular diversions onto single track.

I don't understand the geo. ETT, reach, stack numbers are about equivalent to a regular MTB of the same size. Seems like they just put dropbars on a MTB.
