Specialized S-Works Epic 9 Frame

The Evolution of Cross Country Speed

The new Specialized S-Works Epic 9 represents the pinnacle of innovation in XC racing. Born from over 24 years of development and success in cross-country competitions, this frame is designed to offer the perfect combination of lightness, efficiency, and absolute control.

Building upon the Epic 8 platform, already considered the global benchmark in the XC segment, Specialized has further optimized the design by eliminating every superfluous gram. The result is an incredibly lightweight frame, capable of guaranteeing uncompromising performance on the most technical and fastest trails.

Thanks to the new suspension kinematics and an 11% reduction in friction, every watt produced by the rider is transformed into pure speed, enhancing responsiveness and efficiency in races.
