They sent me photo of rear triangle. See attachement. I will post update here, when I'll receive it.

Reached out to Airwolf thru Ali, got much of the same correspondence, and after some heated responses the seller finally made it clear that they do the new yoke as well. Language barrier!

And asking about the UDH this is the response I got. Looks like it's there. I'm weighing out now to buy from Airwolf vs AWST.

Does anyone have the new version? Has anyone got it to 100mm of travel yet? if so what stroke/length of the shock did you use? and is it UDH compatible?

Brother I encourage you to read the conversation thus far, i think all your questions will be answered

aeroskiii

yeah, but Airwolf says 100mm of travel with a 190x45 shock and you guys say otherwise.

They may say that, yes. People found that wasn't the case with the brain rear end. I haven't bought the EVO frame yet so I can't confirm for you. I did just buy a Fox DPS 190x45 though. Low compression, medium rebound. I hope i picked correctly!

Im gonna go with a sid lux ultimate to match my fork

Who did you order from? Both Airwolf and AWST should be sending the new lighter, revised yoke design. What they explained was shock hardware is included. We will see about that...

I am awaiting someone to share their seller and their take on the build quality, but I will probably pick from one of the two!

I ordered from Airwolf with the new design

To my knowledge, there is no EVO Linkage options unless you buy OEM. Even if you do set that up on these frames, keep in mind they are not proven or tested to handle that amount of flex in the rear triangle.
