Electric mountain bikes have become more capable than ever before, and have unlocked numerous possibilities for adernaline-addicted riders. One of the newest entrants into the massively popular eMTB segment comes from Seattle-based company Evil Bikes. It's called the Epocalypse, and judging from its specs, it wants to end the world for all other electric bikes it goes up against on the trail.
The Epocalypse is outfitted with 29-inch wheels and is described by Evil Bikes as a "lightning-fed hell snake." It's built after the brand's Wreckoning downhill bike, and one thing we can deduce about the brand, apart from its fondness for puns, is that it likes its bikes burly and ultra capable up and down the trail. As such, we find no shortage of premium goodies on the Epocalypse, as it's touted as an electric freeride model capable of taking you through terrain that would push your skills to the limit. For starters, it packs as Shimano EP8 electric motor with an output of up to 85 Nm of torue.
