Evil The Offering Buyers Guide

BikePerfect - 4.5/5 | "Unholy grip and longer geometry mean Evil’s latest Offering definitely conjures up a calmer spirit, but its infamous devilment is definitely still there if you summon it"


Freehub Magazine - "the Offering V2 is quite possibly the best revamp Evil has made to date."

 

Take a read of the Cykel House, Evil Offering buyers guide. Is this bike the right one for you? 

Evil offering riding technical trail

"The quiet Quiver Killer strikes again. The Offering is our 140mm 29” big-wheeled trail bike featuring a steeper 77° seat angle and the best attributes from both its Following and Wreckoning brothers. Still, the Offering stands on its own, with an increased reach that benefits both climbing and descending, a fierce DH capability, an Enduro heart, and diabolical cornering powers. Quiet, stiff, fast and poppy-as-hell, the Offering sacrifices nothing but gives you God-like powers. All hail, the Dark Lord of singletrack."

CLIMB. DESCEND. SMILE. REPEAT.

If Evil’s Following is the short travel trail slayer and the Wreckoning is our leg-powered DH legend, then the Offering is the all-arounder twenty-niner. It spins up like a tornado and descends with playful fury. Evil’s geometry stays shred-ready for all riders. No matter where you live or how you pedal, Evil’s bikes feature built-in adjustability to elevate your ride. And it’s all thanks to the Flip Chip. Switching the orientation of the Flip Chip provides a 2.1-degree spectrum of change covering every style of riding from laid-back to aggressive. Flip it to LOW and the Offering is ready to ride in a trail-happy, fast-handling capacity. Or opt for the X-LOW position to drop the bottom bracket 11 millimeters and slacken the head tube angle for increasing stability and confidence in steeper terrain and higher speeds. Offering does it all.

Evil Offering Jumping

 

Want more flexibility? With Evil's aftermarket angle set, an additional four positions become available, allowing for a total of six potential configurations. Ride the Offering in the stock (LOW) orientation with ultra-efficient forward pedaling position, or in X-LOW with an aftermarket slack 1.5-degree angle set to increase your comfort zone in the steeps. Flip Chips place the rider where the rider wants to be.

 

Evil offering railing a corner

 

SUPERBOOST+ rear spacing allows for more tire clearance, and a stiffer frame chassis. We updated the main pivot hardware to be wider and stronger too. Slap a corner too hard? The bike holds the line. Land sideways getting too zesty on a whip? She’ll correct you. The Offering is a mountain bike meant to be pushed. Add in downtube rubber with impact foam for dampening qualities that reduce noise and impact, full internal guide tubes, containing cables and creating clean lines and crisp style. Rubber chainstay protectors and chain guide help keep chain slap noise nearly nonexistent.

 

Evil offering kicking up dust

 

While the Offering is already a versatile force of nature, Evil offers even more customization through multiple well-curated build kits. Choose a 150mm Rockshox Lyrik fork with Rockshox Super Deluxe Ultimate RC, available with SRAM GX or Eagle X01, or go full futuristic with the AXS wireless electronic shifting kit. Finally, the fierce Push Eleven Six rear shock option to satisfy those faithful to the coil shock fringe. Choose your weapons. Make your Offering.
