With a XC World Championship to its name and complete bike weights as low as 21.5 pounds, the S-works Epic is the lightest, most efficient and best performing cross-country bike available. An integrated approach to the design of all its critical components, along with an enhanced AFR inertia rear shock and Specialized/FOX Shox Mini Brain damper, will no doubt make a full suspension convert out of any competition-hungry rider.
The Epic is an outstanding competitive grade trail bike and includes the S-Works carbon single-bolt 30.9mm seatpost which takes this already featherweight package to its absolute minimum. The Specialized E100 FutureShock fork with 100mm of Brain-regulated travel and rebound adjust are supported by a carbon 1-1/8-1.5" crown-steerer assembly that balances smoothly with its Mini FlowControl rear, making the Epic the most widely versatile bike on the trail. Specialized and Fox blend their engineering talent to develop the new FlowControl Mini Brain shock with Brain Fade adjust inertia valve, air spring and adjustable rebound for trophy-stockpiling performance.
The Roval Control SL XC wheelset with oversized axle, eyelets, DT Aerolite spokes and Ti quick releases provides all the stiffness you need to dominate the XC race course, at the lightest weight possible.
Specialized FACT OSBB carbon crankset with ceramic bearings and 26/39-tooth SRAM spider and rings boasts market-leading stiffness-to-weight for the ultimate power transfer with each pump of the pedals.
Custom Avid XX R magnesium body brakes feature tool-free reach adjust, alloy-backed pads and carbon levers with titanium hardware for powerful, modulated braking power.
The aptly named Epic is the absolute paragon of lightness, stiffness and adjustability in the XC Trail bike category.
