UP TO 36 MONTHS 0% FINANCE ON ALL EVIL FULL BIKES, FRAMES AND CUSTOM BUILDS
We are very happy to say the Evil Bikes The Calling has been released and available soon at the U.K’s number one Evil dealer and demo centre Blazing Bikes.
The Calling is the Following’s delinquent little brother that left on a road trip and never returned, that peddled into the night in search of more, then woke for the sunrise mission to the summit.
Road trippin’, turn slashin’, side-hit-jibbin’, nose-bonkin’, sprint-climbin’ attitude, that’s the Calling. It’s anti-serious technology guarantees good times 69% of the time (the other 31% you’re climbing). With 130mm Delta delivered travel through our finest formed carbon tubing, 27.5″ wheels, and trunnion-mounted-super-deluxe-rear-shock, your only decision is which colour. Push the button.
Available in 2 colours:
Have you ever wanted a bike that wasn’t like a bike at all? More like your favourite snowboard, or your funnest surfboard, the one that catches all the waves or trashes [pillow] lines faster than Kate Moss in the ’90s. The Calling is your answer. This bike-shaped-skateboard has enough travel to keep you honest, while encouraging you to irresponsibly hit every extra-credit line on the trail.
At this juncture most bike companies would drive in some high-scoring-scrabble words like optimized, nimble or anti-squat technology. But we won’t insult you with that nonsense. The Calling has all the bits and bobs you have come to expect from Evil, and water bottle mounts.
The Calling is the Following’s delinquent little brother that left on a road trip and never returned, that peddled into the night in search of more, then woke for the sunrise mission to the summit.
The Calling is the trails, it’s the road trips, it’s the little side hits on the way, it’s the all-day peddle-fests, the backyard pallet sessions, the pre-work rip, the “I’ll get it this time”, the stories told later in the bar with your best mates, it’s 130mm travel, it’s Super Deluxe, it’s 27.5 or 26+, it’s boost and it’s as stiff as Ron Jeremy.
Features:
Our new axle bolts directly into the derailleur hanger for stiff hassle free operation.
Custom ISCG05 tabs to accommodate our lower guide collaboration with e13 components.
Newly designed Trunnion mount to work flawlessly with the new metric shock standard. Upper shock bolts run on bearings for the smoothest feel.
Molded Rubber Downtube Protector keeps rocks and debris off the plastic and quiets the ride.
Custom e13 lower guide and bash guard.
Fully integrated carbon chainguide to keep that chain on.
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.
Uni Directional Carbon with One Piece Molded construction from one of the best factories in the business.
Integrated rubber protection for the chainstay and seat stay to keep things peaceful and quiet in the woods.
We 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.
