New Halcyon Evolve wing
Any opinions on the new H Evolve wing specially for small twin sets ie 7s.Its 30lb / 13.5kg lift.
Would that be ok with 300bar 7s and SS bp or would the original Evolve 40lb be a better option?

It's designed for the smaller twinset - tried out on a pair of 7s in Florida. Personally, I'd go with a 40lb unless you are sure that you won't upgrade to 12s later on.

Doesn't a 40lb wing fold around the 7s a bit too much or is it not too bad?

I have a 40lb Evolve in the garage I don't use if you want to try it with your rig. Where are you based?

What size wing do most people use with 7Ls?
Is the Halcyon Evolve 30 really filling a need in the market?
