SSCC Posted December 11, 2017 Share Looking for feedback from those that have actually ridden either bike. Mostly for general trail riding with the occasional marathon distance race. Thanks. Deepblue1993 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtypot Posted December 11, 2017 Share Ooh, tough choice. I've ridden both and love both. They're both great bikes. Flip a coin! I think I'd lean more towards the Evil.Or the Santa.Or the Evil... peetwindhoek, Pikey, Kalahari Vegmot and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Bob Posted December 11, 2017 Share For that kind of coin you'd best roll down to each if the dealers and get hold of a demo and go smash it about for a weekend at your fav' trails and Jonkers / Tokai and then pick the best of two killer rides. Brenton from trailtech has a L Evil in CT to borrow and is super helpful. In fact the guys at Trailtech are awesome and really look after their customers.

banna Posted December 11, 2017 Share Ooh, tough choice. I've ridden both and love both. They're both great bikes. Flip a coin! I think I'd lean more towards the Evil.Or the Santa.Or the Evil... Jip, what he said. I've got a TB 3, but haven't ridden the Evil. Previously had a TB 2 and also have a Hightower. The TB3 is very much a trail bike. In fact If I had to choose between the TB and the Hightower, I would probably pick the TB. Solid as a rock and very playful. But if you chuck a pair light wheels on, it becomes a long distance cruiser. So very versatile. But the Evil is probably similar. So I guess it comes down to which one makes you fizzle inside.

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted December 11, 2017 Share sjoe. What a choice! Me - EVIL. All the way. That linkage just tickles me in all the right places, and it has a bloody stellar following. What about a Tranny Smuggler, as an outsider? Pulse and SSCC 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about a Tranny Smuggler, as an outsider? Oooh that was also an option I was considering but I narrowed it down to those two.
