SPECIALIZED S-WORKS EPIC 8 FRAME
The new Epic 8 is the exaltation of the concept of speed as the somma of the ability to tackle obstacles, efficiency and lightness. Modern XC courses demand ever higher performance from bikes, and ecco why on the Epic 8 we have further perfected and refined the suspension kinematics, achieving an even more efficient pedaling. The shocks with custom specs and tuning are able to absorb every impact and make the Epic 8 a wolf in agnello’s clothing. If you are an XC racer and your goal is maximum speed, the Epic 8 is the perfect bike.
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 in acceleration. The torsional and lateral stiffness also guarantees perfect steering precision.
WHAT BUMPS?: Compared to the previous model, the Epic 8 absorbs 12% more impact forces and vibrations, so that you get less tired and can make the best use of your energy 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 enhance the holistic riding experience. The specific tuning developed together with the leverage ratios and the renewed kinematics exponentially improves handling.
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 way the rider is able 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 have not added a single gram of weight to improve its features. All models now include SWAT 4.0 and an integrated steering stop to prevent frame damage in the caso of a slide.
The new S-Works Epic 8 frame is even 76 grams lighter, despite adding these features.
SPECIALIZED S-WORKS EPIC 8 FRAME MAIN FEATURES:
- RockShox SIDLuxe ULTIMATE Ride Dynamics shock
- Three settings for the shock with dedicated tuning.
- Light and stiff Roval Control SL seatpost
- Practical SWAT 4.0 storage compartment in the down tube.
- Compatible only with electronic drivetrain.
