SPECIALIZED EPIC 8 EVO PRO BIKE
The fastest downcountry bike in the world. The EVO is the Epic 8 version suitable for downcountry thanks to its unmatched combination of capability, efficiency and lightness. With its kinematics, the Epic 8 EVO is incredibly efficient uphill, while the Ride Dynamics-tuned suspension absorbs impacts on obstacle-filled descents. If you love racing at high speed on singletrack with a group of friends, the Epic 8 EVO is for you.GREAT CAPABILITY: the 120mm travel and progressive geometry make the Epic 8 extremely capable on technical trails, very fast and efficient uphill and incredibly responsive and snappy under acceleration. In addition, torsional and lateral stiffness guarantees perfect steering precision. With a 130mm travel fork, the Epic 8 EVO is at ease on the roughest descents.WHAT BUMPS?: Compared to the previous model, the Epic 8 absorbs 12% more impact forces and vibrations, so you get less tired and can use your energy better to push hard on the pedals.RIDE DYNAMICS: The Specialized Ride Dynamics Team has developed a custom tune for the Epic 8 shock, whose characteristics elevate the holistic riding experience. The specific tune developed together with the leverage ratios and the renewed kinematics exponentially improve ride quality.BIOMECHANICAL EFFICIENCY: By optimizing the kinematics of the Epic 8, the Specialized Ride Dynamics Team has reduced pedal-induced movement by 20% while keeping the suspension active for more effective bump management. This allows the rider to maintain the most efficient pedaling position. The result is the most efficient full-suspension bike we have ever made.MORE WITH LESS: With the Epic 8 we did not add a single gram of weight to improve its characteristics. All models now feature SWAT 4.0 and an integrated steering stop to prevent frame damage in the event of a slide.

SPECIALIZED EPIC HARDTAIL COMP BIKE
The days when meeting up with your hardtail meant feeling the consequences for days are over. The Epic Hardtail Comp changes the game and combines comfort and capability with lightness. Building the lightest bike possible has always been the race within the race, but at what cost? The battle of grams has certainly not been without casualties, and XC hardtail bikes became known for a harsh, twitchy ride that compromised capability and versatility.
But who said that fighting against your bike makes you faster? Instead, it must be acknowledged that the fastest bike is more than just a light bike. Enough with the shake-you-to-death, measuring-backside-pain-by-distance approach, and forward with new thinking. The Epic Hardtail—ridiculously capable, mystically comfortable, head-turningly light, and all-around fast.
Sure, we optimized every small detail of the Epic Hardtail to still create the lightest mass-production frame in the world, but our commitment was above all to create an Epic Hardtail that is capable and comfortable with aggressive singletrack-inspired geometry, ample clearance for tires, and excellent vertical compliance—all in creating a bike that lives and breathes the foundations of speed.
Quality components like the rockshox SID SL fork and sram drivetrain, a great product at a reasonable price.
SPECIALIZED EPIC HARDTAIL COMP BIKE KEY FEATURES:
11m carbon fiber frame, light, capable, and comfortable, and compatible with dropper post use.
