 (Part 3 of a series on the Trek Off-Road Tech Update for BGI Staff from Ken Derrico of Trek Bicycle.)

EVO Link Rocker on the Trek Remedy 9.9The rocker link is essential in connecting rear suspension members to the frame.  Most are bolted together plates.  To tie all the elements of it's rear suspension together, Trek relies on the one piece EVO Roller link casting.  One piece design dramatically improves stiffness and reliability in Trek's hi performance off-road bike.  The EVO also incorporates pressed in sealed bearing, rather than bushing, for increased durability.  (You can see more EVO details on YouTube from Trek's Jose Gonzalez.)

The EVO Link is found on all Trek Full suspension bikes, including the Remedy and Fuel series of high performance Trek Bikes Indianapolis, available at both Bicycle Garage Indy-North and Bicycle Garage Indy-South in Greenwood.

We will cover Full Floater shock mount next in Part 4.
