 Hey Evil Bikes. I'd love to see what is new with your company, who your riders are, and potential shop for one of your bikes. But your website hasn't been updated in years. And your 'team' link goes to the Mondraker race team website. If you can't build and maintain a website, should I have confidence in your bikes and customer service?

 Especially coming from a brand who was rumoured to have strong marketing skills.

 Sounds like the company I work for... but they won't listen and I'm past caring now Smile

Nothing to do with bikes so you're all safe. Unless you're diabetic.

 Sounds pretty "Evil" to me, although it might be a case like Ferrari where the company selects their customers from the pool and not the other way around.

 Has anyone heard of the Evil "insurgent"? I heard a whisper that it's a mini DH bike to fit between the Undead and the Uprising

 Its basically a one man show at Evil, kevin does almost evrything. From frame engineering to sales rep, so a website is kinda hard to do especially for a small company. Something is better than nothing.

 Problem is that his new site is featuring the uprising and they are still In production right now. One everything is ready to go, so will the website.

 fair enough, i guess at least they have some sort of online presence in the form of facebook

 I would guess they need to sell a shitload of units to make up for all the warranties they gave out with the first batch of undeads. I've ridden my mate's undead, which was a warranty from a revolt, and it both looks and rides the part... but it broke after about two months on the little dogbone links between the rocker and the swingarm. Same place as the revolt broke, but I think it was a bearing problem on the undead, rather than a problem with the engineering. I like the sound of that bike but with 180 travel and a single crown fork. Bikes don't get better looking than a matt black undead.

 - bik34life, I get what you're saying but that is why you pay a third party developer to do it. To not even have a few pictures and the spec of your latest bike just seems crazy. This is the downside of having a website built in flash - looks pretty but you need to know what you're doing to update it.

 I would love to be involved in helping Evil with a new site! Check us out at bydreamtime.com the whole company rides and has a lot of industry knowledge, combine that with a cool brand and I'm sure it would make for a great partnership. -Eric

 "Something is better than nothing."

I would disagree. Its like how getting bad directions is worse than no directions. Bikes are differentiated not just by technical features but by the impression and opinion of a brand. Nobody except the most retrogrouchy engineer looks at technical features alone. And in the high viz world of DH bikes and action sports in general, not being up with the times is worse than not doing anything.

There are ways to gain exposure without a big flashy website. But a website is the first place people turn to for information.

 The customer service off Evil is a joke. I have an uprising and I've been waiting for 16 months for a new back end under warranty. Don't buy an Evil

 I don't know how they get so much media coverage considering how unreliable they are in the real world.

 The Evil Undead is my dream bike. They are just so pretty. And I imagine they pedal well with the DW link. Did I mention they that are gorgeous?

 Not a DW link but is a DW suspension.

 "daves extra long travel apparatus"..... bit of a mad name for a suspension linkage... bikes look sweet though especially the black and yellow colour scheme

 Seems to be a lot of break ups and flat tires lately. I've seen a lot as of recent. Is there a planetary event going on?

Note to Strobel: Run downhill tubes and just kill it. That sucks. Pulling for you at VDS. f*ck qualifying.

 Looks similar to a devinci Wilson. Anyone else agree? Before anyone comments, yes I know mr weasels suspension designs are used on both bikes. Just saying if you don't like the lack of website, distributors, etc... that perhaps looking at the Wilson might be a good alternative.

 Where is Toni Ferreiro? The best rider of evil in the wc.

 Even Francisco Pardal got better results than Strobel, Delfs or Polc in the qualis.
