Evil Offering

The Offering, Evils' new FULLY OPTIMISED 140mm rear travel 29” mountain bike with a steeper 77° seat angle and metric trunnion-mounted rear shock. Taking the best attributes from both the Following MB and the Wreckoning LB, while developing its own character, the Offering provides a new experience with longer reach while creating a bike that has all the same pop with an increase in stability without sacrificing corner destroying performance.

The Offering began when Evil finally figured out that they were wrong. There they were thinking they had nailed all the categories perfectly. The Following MB was the short travel trail slayer, the Wreckoning was winning monster truck rallies, and all was right with the world. It turned out Evil weren’t as smart as they thought they were, so Evil started thinking about the idea of having a tweener. A bike that logically split the difference between the Following MB and the Wreckoning. Evil asked themselves, why have a 120mm, 140mm and 160mm 29” wheeled bikes? Wouldn’t this 140mm bike cannibalise the Following MB and Wreckoning sales? After enough beers Evil started to realise that this line up allowed Evil to focus more specifically on each category of bike. Despite hearing rumours of the Following MB shredding the Whistler Bike Park and the Wreckoning being used as the all-day trail weapon, the Following was initially conceived as the all-day trail shredder and the Wreckoning was designed to shake the forest. Evil had it backwards all along…. A common theme. As luck would have it, the Offering ended up being a unique specimen featuring some attributes and ride qualities Evil have been wanting to add for years but needed to wait for the right moment.

The number 74.8° has been the seat angle that has spanned our entire bike line up. When paired with the appropriate travel front fork, 74.8° was a very pedal friendly seat angle. Many of you wanted to ride longer travel front forks and when combined with the lower (X-LOW) of our geometry settings, it slackened the cockpit and reduced the climbing ability that Evil initially designed into the bikes. With the Offering, Evil steepened the seat angle 2.2° which lengthened the reach 25mm, putting the medium Offering at a 77° seat angle with a 461mm reach, while increasing front to center by 14mm from 759mm to 773mm over a Wreckoning. Evil have effectively made the medium Offering use a 7mm longer reach than the large Wreckoning while having a similar front to centre. What does this all mean for you the rider? It means that the Offering has all the same poppertunities and corner shredability that Evil bikes are known for with an increase in stability and climbing ability.
