Evil’s big bike gets a motor but loses none of its personality.

Aug 2022 · Steve Fisher
Evil Bikes unleashes their first ebike: the Epocalypse eMTB, a full carbon, Shimano EP8 powered, long travel trail beast.

Aug 2022 · Alicia Leggett
The Evil Epocalypse loves when the trail opens up to the fast-and-rough, but it doesn't have the excess length and slack angles you might expect. That means it feels alive despite the motor and battery weight it's carrying.
Maneuverable and balanced, especially for a 170mm bike
Excellent suspension performance
Great build kit
Just one build option with no price point below $11,999 USD
Some might find the geometry less aggressive than they'd like if they're looking to ride flat-out DH trails only

Evil drops a big, bad e-bike just as you'd expect.
