The new Epic 8 represents the pinnacle of mountain bike speed evolution, where obstacle-chasing ability, efficiency, and light weight come together in perfect harmony. To meet the ever-increasing demands of modern XC courses, Specialized has further refined the Epic 8's suspension kinematics, resulting in an even more efficient pedaling experience. Custom-tuned shock absorbers soak up every bump, making the Epic 8 a true "wolf in sheep's clothing." If you're an XC rider looking for maximum speed, the Epic 8 is the perfect bike for you.

  • Enhanced capability: Impeccable control on technical terrain, fast and efficient climbing, explosive acceleration, absolute steering precision
  • 12% more shock absorption than the previous model
  • Ride Dynamics for an unparalleled riding experience : The Epic 8’s custom shock absorber tuning, combined with new leverage ratios and revised kinematics, takes the ride to the next level.
  • Uncompromising biomechanical efficiency : Thanks to optimized kinematics, the Epic 8 reduces pedaling-induced movement by 20%, while maintaining active suspension for effective shock absorption.
  • More performance, same weight : The Epic 8 doesn't add a single gram of weight to its amazing features.
