The S-Works Epic combines hardtail efficiency with full suspension capability, and is the epitome of an obsession with speed. Besides obviously being defined by over one hundred victories and podiums in the World Cup.
A smarter BRAIN
The new Epic, always synonymous with speed, features the latest version of BRAIN suspension, with a new design developed in conjunction with the bike and is efficient and tuned for racing.
New Frame
The new frame of the S-Works Epic focuses on efficient power transfer and improved handling. The rear is 15% stiffer than the previous version in order to take advantage of the new BRAIN platform with racing calibration. The new dedicated FACT 12M carbon fiber lay-up is even lighter and with the carbon shock link it comes to a weight reduction of over 100 grams compared to the previous S-Works Epic.
In perfect combination with the Brain shock, the S-Works Epic mounts a RockShox SID SL Ultimate Brain Position Sensitive fork. The result is a stiffer and more precise front end.
The SRAM XX1 Eagle AXS electronic groupset and Roval Control SL carbon wheels complete the picture.
- FACT 12m carbon fiber frame with 100mm of BRAIN-controlled rear wheel travel, lighter than the previous version. Excellent power transfer.
- For the fork, the best for XC racing: RockShox SID SL Ultimate with 100mm of travel.
- Very light electronic MTB groupset, SRAM XX1 Eagle AXS, designed to withstand the rigors of World Cup racing.
- Roval Control SL rims, 29mm internal width, very strong and light, and 22% more resistant to pinch flats.
