The Evolve, unlike many of the 29 inch mountain bikes, is a Ground Up design using Ellsworth's proprietary Instant Center Tracking Suspension technology.
With a higher axle center and larger bottom bracket drop, the Evolve maintains Ellsworth's legendary suspension dynamic and overall handling. All geometry and suspension functions have been designed from the ground up to garnish the fast rolling, high stability of the 29 inch wheel, without the ill handling commonly associated with the 29 inch wheel bikes.
The handling and suspension function on the Evolve is equivalent to the legendary handling and suspension function of the Epiphany or Truth, yet it’s 29 inch wheels afford you the surefootedness of an XC Trail bike that will put new grins on your face, and will feel like an old friend at the start and finish of any ride.
The Evolve, like previous Ellsworth Designs, raises the bar of 29 inch full suspension bikes.
The Evolve's suspension functions are perfect, as you'd expect with any Ellsworth ICT suspension design, it rides and climbs like no other 29" in the industry

4 inches of rear travel with Fox's Float R or Float RP23 option
-
Rock Shox Reba Race 29 inch fork (100mm)
