Description

The electrified Evil Epocalypse is your tractor beam to the summit. This long travel overlander is prepped for the end of days, placing direct current between your heels to turn the steepest ascents into provocative dares.

Inspired by Evil's beloved Wreckoning platform, the battery boosted Epocalypse rides above two 29” wheels with 166mm of rear travel and 170mm below the bars. Posture for this genre-fluid beast closely resembles that of the Wreckoning for a proper dance party deep in the trees. 

Epocalyptic lightning flows into a low-slung Shimano EP8 motor to kick out 85Nm of pedal assistance at full throttle, backed by the brand’s burly 630Wh battery for max laps.

Between the juiced watts and the pedalling prowess of the DELTA System, few ascents will tilt too steep for the Evil Epocalypse ebike Electrified bikes are a blast whether gravity’s helping or hindering, and the engineers at Evil worked closely with Shimano to achieve an ideal power balance. After two years of rigorous testing and perfecting they have created the right machine for any rider’s version of fun.

A pair of sturdy carbon triangles surrounds the EP8 powerhouse, protected from front tire projectiles by a custom skid plate beneath the motor and a shuttle shield under the downtube. As ever, chain slap is silenced by a hefty sound mound strip on the chain stay, and there’s a second slab of ‘shut-up” inside the seat stay.

The Epocalypse boasts some of the shortest carbon stays of any 29” ebike on the market, maintaining that Evil slaphappy, side-hit slashing, dumb-gap trying DNA we all know and love. If you’re searching for a lightning-powered unicorn that’s deft at stabilizing descents and lofting roots whenever it’s asked, you’ve found it. We’ll leave you to choose between Low and X-Low geometry settings, and to select the standard or angle-adjust headset that best suits your style.

Features

85Nm OF MUSCLE: At the heart of the Epocalypse, a Shimano EP8 motor pumps up to 85Nm of torque into the pedals. This latest power source from Shimano is lighter, faster, smaller, smoother, and more efficient than the previous E8000.

630Wh JUICEBOX: 630 Wh of integrated battery power nails the intersection where maximum riding range and minimum weight collide. How those watts are burned or conserved is entirely up to you

STREAMLINED INTERFACE: The EP8 system comes with a covert mode switch on the bar and a full colour LED display with all the data you care to know about, keeping your eyes focused on the trail ahead and not the bike below.

PICK YOUR POISON: An Evil-tuned EP8 motor offers two power profiles to rip with. For motominded go getters, Profile 1 cranks out maximum Epocalyptic watts. Riders with a little range anxiety will dig Profile 2, designed around more conservative power output so you can go the distance without the fear of unplanned camping.

E-TUBE MOBILE APP: Not finding those perfect settings for your style of riding? Download the Shimano E-Tube Project mobile app to dial in the support modes and torque settings for a truly custom experience.

WHEELIE SHORT CHAIN STAYS: The newly developed split-yoke design lets us maintain short 442mm chainstays, allowing riders to manoeuvre through impossibly technical climbs and easily pull up for manuals and trail hits. Pairing this with a wider main pivot and a unified one-piece rear triangle means increased stiffness and strength.

SUPERBOOST+ STIFFNESS: A wide 157mm dropout spacing allows us to get a broader, stiffer spoke pattern, and a wider swingarm. This rear end design was driven to support tire clearance around a 29 x 2.6” tread, allowing you all the rubber you need to keep the wheels on the ground without sacrificing that playful rear end feel.

FLIP CHIP: In the rare case you find yourself a little too over the bars, we’ve added our flip chip capability that Evil fans know and love. Flipping the chips lowers your bottom bracket and slackens the front end for a more aggressive stance without changing that signature DELTA leverage curve.

EVIL ENERGY BAR: Evil has introduced a custom 35mm carbon bar with internal wire routing to clean up the cockpit and keep you focused on the fun stuff. 

10 SECOND PIT STOPS: Our fully integrated battery design keeps the electric bits protected inside the downtube, while quick release access makes for ten second battery swaps through a  covert slot in the downtube door. Faster pit stops means more laps. 

TUBES IN TUBES: Internal guide tubes for a clean look, easy setup, and even easier maintenance. Ditch the archaic zip ties on this spaceship from the future.

SKID PLATE: A custom skid plate, reinforced with a rubber pad keeps the EP8 motor safe and sound from heavy hits and your downtube covered from front tire projectiles. Integrated drain holes keep water out of the bilge and away from the goods.

SHUTTLE SHIELD: An integrated protection slab shields the downtube from tail gate bashing. Never go into the tailgate battlefield without a shield

CALM AND COLLECTED: We’ve included our rubber sound mounds on the chain stay and silent rubber on the integrated chain guide to keep the drivetrain quiet and tidy while you’re banging down track.
