I read in a few places that the shock on the Evolink (not the machine) gets in the way of internal dropper routing.
Is it a big problem?
Thinking of buying one but don't want to spend that much on a bike that has annoying niggles.
Don't want to run external routing as all those droppers suck!
I've got a one-up at the moment. Ideally I'd want to keep using that
Bump - one more try. No Evolink owners on here?
It limits how far the dropper will insert. Plenty other sussers the same though.
For me on a medium, with a fairly short 31"inseam, a 125 stealth dropper was the limit.
I got a 150 transfer though, with external cable.
The Evolink is setup with cable guides for the transfer, which definitely doesn't suck.
I have kept my one to use on my jartail as it's so nice, despite it having stealth routing.
I'm selling my Evo140 , medium, as it happens 😉.
A friend of mine rides an Evolink, he's never mentioned any issues with routing his internal dropper and trust me he's exceptionally finicky!
Ok thanks chaps. Sorry I need a large so can't take you up on the medium.
@bedmaker - how come you are getting rid out of interest? Anything else to watch out for with the evolinks?
I have a XL Evolink and have routed all cables without any issue dropper post is 160mm One up.
Cheers - sounds like its not a big deal then.
How long have you add yours jonf66?
The bearing sets are the other thing that looks like a potential issue - have you had to change yours yet?
