Kinesis says

We never stop developing our frames and our ultimate 'cross frame strengthens it s dominance this season with a competition proven Carbon/Kinesium/Easton Hybrid frame construction and fully re-profiled Ergo2 top tube. Add stunning new, tougher, dual colour, paint finishes into the mix, and I think that this years EVO is pretty close to perfection in a 'cross frame! The Hybrid frame construction optimises frame performance by matching construction material to specific frame area. The lightweight, 'PropulsionCrosstay' carbon wishbone gives class beating tyre clearance, whilst adding lateral stiffness and compliance to the rear triangle.
The new Ergo2 top tube is formed from Kinesium, this tubing has built a reputation for lightweight coupled to durability, responsiveness and superb ride quality. The tube has been lightened and re-profiled, making it even more comfortable for carrying over longer distances often found in European 'cross racing. It is wider and deeper where it meets the seat tube, helping to resist twisting forces along the front triangle. The down tube and seat tube are Easton Ultralite Taperwall , this tubing is super durable and lightweight with an unparalleled racing heritage. The downtube is lighter and smaller diameter, to once again help picking up and carrying, it is ovalised where it meets the BB and head tube for maximum weld area and stiffness. Cable routing for the rear mech and brake is on the RHS of the frame for smooth changing and carrying and the rear mech. cable clips neatly out of the way on the wishbone. An oversize drive side chainstay enhances acceleration and helps get the power down when out of the saddle. The aStay system allows us to keep the back end light without compromising response and stiffness. Team this frame with our, 460g full carbon monocoque fork and you have a devastating cross setup weighing 1.9kg and costing under 700rrp
