From what I know they're coming in either a raw carbon and a yellow (imagine thats a Flo yellow), plus there's also listings for the new Uprising trail frame too. I don't know much more than that, but I am looking forward to seeing these in the flesh.

where are you getting that from? I would like to see that trail frame...are you talking hardtail or a 130mm bike?

Yeah, it's like an aggressive trail/enduro type frame. All that info comes courtesy of the UK dealer listings I saw the other day, pretty cool to hear these will be dropping soon.

i have a feeling there will be no news what so ever until they are physically stateside and ready to be shipped, the last thing anyone could handle is if they actually said 2 more weeks only to run into a paint issue or a delay in stickers or anything cosmetic. For now can we call these frames a fifth generation fighter?


maybe evil should move production to Lockheed Martin? i heard they know a thing or two about carbon

You're right. I only looked at the 7:10 mark.

Seems strange that they wouldn't have him on an Uprising if they're already in production. There must be prototypes around.

The current Evil ownership should just sell the name/company. Probably could make a good bit of coin and wipe their hands clean as the name still clearly resonates with people that are waiting to hand their money to them. Heck, if someone previously associated with the original Evil were to take over, it'd probably be a hell of an investment.

I don't want to speak for DW, but I'm pretty happy where I am now. It's tough seeing the brand we founded go through these struggles, but I wish them the best and hope all the customers get taken care of at some point down the line.
