This \u003cstrong\u003efull-suspension race bike\u003c\/strong\u003e has been engineered to deliver extreme performance, reducing weight by 206 grams compared with the previous model. The result is the \u003cstrong\u003eworld’s lightest XC bike\u003c\/strong\u003e in its category, allowing riders to tackle technical courses with maximum responsiveness. The seamless integration of frame, suspension, and components ensures an uncompromising riding experience, where every rider input is translated into speed and control. The optimized geometry promotes energy efficiency, reducing power loss and enabling superior performance on varied terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAdvanced Suspension and Friction Reduction\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eEpic 9 suspension\u003c\/strong\u003e has undergone significant optimization, with an 11% reduction in friction compared with the previous generation. This improvement translates into a \u003cstrong\u003emore immediate response\u003c\/strong\u003e to trail obstacles, keeping the wheel in contact with the ground in all conditions. The \u003cstrong\u003erefined suspension kinematics\u003c\/strong\u003e ensure effective impact absorption without penalizing climbing performance. Full-suspension technology makes it possible to tackle technical descents with confidence, while reduced internal resistance keeps the rider’s energy focused on propulsion. This combination of lightness and efficiency makes the Epic 9 the ideal choice for XC competitions where every gram and every millisecond count.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUncompromising Performance for the Competitive Rider\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003espeed of the Epic 9\u003c\/strong\u003e is not the result of a single feature, but of the perfect synergy between all the bike’s components. The ultralight frame, efficient suspension, and optimized geometry create a platform where the rider can deliver maximum potential. Every watt of power is converted into acceleration and speed, with no losses due to friction or excessive weight. The bike naturally adapts to the rider’s movements, delivering instant feedback and precise control on rough terrain. This \u003cstrong\u003erace bike\u003c\/strong\u003e has been developed for athletes seeking the highest level of performance, where lightness, efficiency, and speed are decisive factors for race success.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrame: S-Works FACT 12m Carbon, Progressive XC Race Geometry, Rider-First Engineered™, threaded BB, 12x148mm UDH compatible rear dropout, internal cable routing, 120mm of travel, Optimized for wireless drivetrain.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSWAT: SWAT BOX 2.0 ASSY.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeatpost Clamp: Specialized Alloy 34.9, Ti Bolt.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFork: RockShox SID ULTIMATE Flight Attendant, Ride Dynamics developed 3 position, Debon Air, 15x110mm, 44mm offset, 120mm Travel.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear Shock: RockShox SIDLuxe ULTIMATE Flight Attendant, Ride Dynamics developed 3 position, Solo Air, 190x45mm.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear Brake: SRAM Motive Ultimate, 4-piston caliper, hydraulic disc, 160mm rotor.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront Brake: SRAM Motive Ultimate, 4-piston caliper, hydraulic disc, 180mm rotor.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBottom Bracket: CeramicSpeed Alpha, DUB.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrankset: SRAM \/ Quarq XX SL Eagle Power Meter Crankset, DUB SM:165mm, M-XL:170mm, 34T.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShifter: SRAM AXS POD Ultimate Controller.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCassette: SRAM CS-1299, 12 speed, 10-52t.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear Derailleur: SRAM XX SL Eagle AXS.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChain: SRAM XX SL Eagle Transmission 12-Speed Flattop Chain.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear wheel: Roval Control World Cup, Mini hooked carbon, 28.5mm inner width, tubeless ready, Roval Control World Cup hub, DT Swiss 180 internals, Roval Carbon spokes w\/ Ti end pieces.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront wheel: Roval Control World Cup, Mini hooked carbon, 28.5mm inner width, tubeless ready, Roval Control World Cup hub, DT Swiss ceramic bearings, Roval Carbon spokes w\/ Ti end pieces.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear tire: Specialized Air Trak, Flex Lite Casing, T5\/T7 Compound, 29x2.35.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront tire: Specialized Fast Trak, Flex Lite Casing, T5\/T7 Compound, 29x2.35.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInner tubes: Specialized TPU inner tube.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeatpost: RockShox Reverb AXS, 30.9mm, S: 125, M\/L:150, XL: 175mm.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandlebar: Roval Control SL Integrated cockpit, 60mm\/70mm X- 6 degree integrated stem, 8-degree backsweep, 2 degree upsweep, 760mm wide.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSaddle: Specialized S-Works Power EVO Mirror, Carbon Rails, SM: 155mm, M-XL: 143mm.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrips: Specialized Trail Grips.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight size M: 9.66 kg (21 lb, 4.7 oz).\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Red (Gloss Red Tint Over Red Reflex Pearl Edge Fade \/ Metallic White Silver).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Specialized","offers":[{"title":"S \/ Red","offer_id":54077990895962,"sku":"90327-0102","price":14499.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"M \/ Red","offer_id":54077986144602,"sku":"90327-0103","price":14499.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"L \/ Red","offer_id":54077986177370,"sku":"90327-0104","price":14499.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"XL \/ Red","offer_id":54077986210138,"sku":"90327-0105","price":14499.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0532\/7139\/6534\/files\/Specialized-S-Works-Epic-9-Rosso-All4cycling-1.webp?v=1777489789","url":"https:\/\/www.all4cycling.com\/en\/products\/specialized-s-works-epic-9-rosso","provider":"All4cycling ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
