| Description | In early 2004, Evil Bikes teamed up with Canadian born riding icon Chris Donahue. Soon after, Chris began working with the Evil engineering team to develop a signature model frame that would be fitting of the Donahue and Evil names. This frame is named for Chris' love of riding and the energy associated with it is Chris' Drug Of Choice. The D.O.C. frame was engineered from the ground up in typical Evil fashion. The frame features a host of innovations which allow for advantages in geometry and versatility that have never been seen previously. Chris Donahue drafted his ideal geometry with input from Dave on ergonomic layout. The D.O.C. uses a custom developed steel tubeset. Its triple butted air hardening tubing was designed in house, and is made by Reynolds in the U.K. This custom tubeset and unique brace tube frame design allows for use of a 31.6 seatpost, and lets riders choose trail or park seat heights. Its head tube, chainstay yoke, and dropouts are made from and Evil proprietary steel alloy that is 135% stronger 200% harder than the standard 4130 used in almost all other steel frames. This builds a stronger head tube than ever possible before, and dropouts that can stand up to unparalleled grinding and abuse. The D.O.C. also uses an innovative asymmetrical chainstay yoke design that allows for a phenomenally short 15.75 inch chainstay length with a 26 x 2.3 tire. The D.O.C. frame uses the e.thirteen HVS sliding vertical dropout system which was developed over 2 years and on 3 generations of factory prototype Evil frames. Through it's carefully thought out design and testing, the HVS system is incredibly strong, yet lightweight. The system is simple to install and maintain, allows for infinite chainstay length adjustment, all with the security and convenience of a vertical dropout. |
