D.o.c.
frame or complete?
you wont find any complete, new evils for 800. your best bet is to buy used or get a frame and build it up with parts from your P.1
what about the imperial or the konas my friend just got a chase 2 he likes it alot but thats 1100
ya go with the chase 3 its nice and its got a awsome graphic so it looks really cool lol

I dont know about a whole bike for 800 but the azonic steel head frame is pretty cheap.
i second this idea... but probably because thats what im doing right now.mcA896 said:
I'll third that. On the Evil's if you're gonna do that, you better get down to your LBS and get an order in quick. I believe the DOCs and Sovereigns are just out of production and I'm sure they'll sell like hotcakes (probably a decent size preorder/list going on). On the Imperials, las I heard back in early December, they would have the next run available in about 6 months? Either way, the MSRP on those frames is going to eat almost all of your $800. Either go used (there was a decently spec'd 243 on Ebay last week) or swap your existing hardware onto a different frame (is the P1 busted?) and replace it as it breaks, or get your name on a list for an Imperial and ride your P until the new frame comes in. Then in the mean time save up some more $$$ to upgrade the other components you don't like on your P right now.

Check out hte chase man. I got a chase 3 and i love it. The parts on it are fine i made a few mods to it like chopping my cassette down and changed out the brakes for some spare avids i had but otherwise its a great bike that doesnt really need much changed. They retail for 825 i think for a chase 3. If you have any questions just shoot me a msg.
Sweet set up on the cassette. Any Chase in the series is nice. It looks like just a really stiff and well built frame. Im considering buying a Chase 1, so well see how that gos. I have a Jekyll now, I might just keep that for a trail bike and run the Chase as my all around bike. Well see....
