Highs
  • Brilliant handling at high speed, striking design, conventional riding position

Lows
  • Goofy low-speed handling, backbreaking ride quality

Evil Chamois Hagar gravel bike review

Feb 2020 · Guy Kesteven

Evil’s radical Chamois Hagar gravel bike looks like nothing else but how does it actually ride?

Highs
  • Radical looks create a stir wherever you ride

  • Lightweight, performance-tuned frame and fork with sorted storage fixtures

  • Amazing stability for steeps and straight lines in stock format

  • SRAM AXS hybrid gravel/MTB equipment is awesome

Lows
  • Stock bars are too narrow and stem too short for the stubborn handling

  • Fitting a short enough stem leaves reach compromised

  • Firm ride and no scope for fat tyre or suspension fork fixes

  • Expensive
