Evil Following Review: We put the Evil Following MB X01 through its paces

Oct 2019 · Guy Kesteven

Evil’s Following set a new standard for short travel, big attitude 29er trail bikes but how does it compare to the latest contenders? Guy Kesteven has been hitting the moors, Enduro tracks and off-piste black runs of Yorkshire to find out.

Highs
  • Insanely controlled and speed-hungry suspension with addictively agile handling

  • Comparatively good price for a premium brand and sorted spec

Lows
  • Shorter, steeper geometry makers it less stable than contemporaries

  • Relatively short frame warranty

Evil Following MB review

Aug 2018

The Evil Following MB has upped the game with the same 120mm of rear travel, but 20mm more reach. But in today’s increasingly aggressive landscape can it still hold its own? - Mtbr.com

Times have changed a lot. The Following has changed a little. As its name implies, it simply got more better.

Evil The Following MB X01 Eagle review

Dec 2017 · Guy Kesteven

Unbelievable control and freakish speed breeding meet epic efficiency and practical versatility. Buy if you value superb suspension over raw figures on your rowdy trail bike

Highs
  • Benchmark-resetting short-travel control and speed

  • Efficient and agile enough for XC singletrack hustling

  • Carbon-rich kit collection

Lows
  • Still very spendy despite recent price drop

  • Even large size requires a side-entry bottle cage

Even from afar, the badass attitude of the Evil The Following is undeniable, with its long, slack frame, black finish and aggressive aesthetic eye-catching!

Evil The Following (2016) review - MBR

Feb 2016 · Mick Kirkman

Meet the new Evil The Following, is this the sexiest 29er ever built?

Highs
  • Love the ride quality, playfulness, jump-ability and pure speed.

Lows
  • This kind of performance doesn’t come cheap, and Evil needs to prove its reliability and customer service are equally top-notch.
