This range ofInspyre bikesquickly became afavourite of racerslooking to step up from an entry level race bike to a more performance orientated machine, without breaking the bank. We found that the type of customer buying a bike from the EVO-C range has been racing for around 12-18 months and searching for a bike with a carbon fork and disc brakes. The Inspyre EVO-CPro L Disc Brake Bike ticks these boxes and more.

Upfront on thePro L it’s aPride Racing tapered carbon forktaking care of the steering duties, while Shimano takes care of braking.Disc brakes make a whole lot of sensefor the young riders that don’t yet have the hand strength. They can easily wash off speed, and this braking system is virtually maintenance free.

Whilst Inspyre is a younger brand, there’sno doubt that the people behind the Evoseriesknow their race craft, with each size being right in the competitive ball park as far as specs for bars, cranks and gearing on each bike. Our in-house race guru rates and recommends this range based on both price point, and value for money, with a custom ground up build easily costing double the price of the EVO-C to achieve the same performance value.

When you take your first lap at the track on your EVO-C you’ll know that you made the right choice.
