Got mine here no problem but I’ve heard of people ordering before me that still don’t have theirs. Looks like there’s two in stock right now. Sign up for notifications if they’re sold out, that’s what I did. Seem to restock fairly often.

Weird, I just ordered it from the LBS when I picked up the frame and had it in 3 days.
Thought id share some thoughts after a few rides on a custom Evo S3 with mullet link. Pic attached.
Internal Cable Routing is the simplest I have ever used, until it isnt. If the factory fitted nylon internal cables come loose, its a nightmare to get it all back in line, so be careful with the rear brake line!
Mullet link works great, takes 10 minutes.
Dropper post - I have a One Up 180mm dropper which will go about 25mm from fully inserted. (On an S3.)
3M wrap. Ridewrap make one, but due to all the curves on the frame is fairly tricky. (Ive installed a few and this one was a doozy.)
Running a 30T ring on eagle and the chain runs super close to the chainstay protector. So instead, took that off, installed an STFU and it works perfectly. COMPLETELY silent.
Headtube inserts, grease them a little, will creak after a while without.
Suspension recommendations in the ST Evo booklet are a really good starting point.
The ST Evo booklet has all the important information, torques, cable routing etc etc, but cant find it anywhere online, so dont lose it!
Went from a V4 Nomad (with cascade link) to this and so far am VERY impressed. Punches way above its travel.

Thanks for the write up! About to install ride wrap tomorrow and not looking forward to it... Just curious, what rise bars did you put on?

Those are 35mm rise Next R on a 35/35 stem. Works well!
I have a dhx2 on my 19 for bigger hit days, it completely changed the bike. Kept the rear stuck to the ground. Also kept it higher when pedaling. Super fast! I took out the 5mm spacer for my 21. Was 210x50 now 210x55. Excited to try it !
