Specialized S-Works Epic 8 frameset - Grey

Frame Specialized S-Works Epic 8. The new Epic 8 is the exaltation of the concept of speed as a sum of the ability to tackle obstacles, efficiency, and lightness. Modern XC trails require increasingly higher performance from bikes, and that's why we have further refined and perfected the suspension kinematics on the Epic 8 to offer an even more efficient ride. The shocks with custom specifications and settings can absorb every impact, making the Epic 8 a wolf in sheep's clothing. If you are an XC competitor and your goal is maximum speed, the Epic 8 is the perfect bike.

• The 120mm travel and progressive geometry make the Epic 8 extremely capable on technical trails, very fast and efficient uphill, and incredibly responsive and snappy in acceleration. The torsional and lateral stiffness also ensures perfect steering precision.
  
• Compared to the previous model, the Epic 8 absorbs 12% more impact forces and vibrations, allowing you to tire less and use your energy more effectively to push harder on the pedals.
  
• The Specialized Ride Dynamics Team has developed a custom tuning for the Epic 8's shock, whose characteristics elevate the holistic riding experience. The specific tuning developed alongside the leverage ratios and the renewed kinematics improve the ride exponentially.
  
• By optimizing the kinematics of the Epic 8, the Specialized Ride Dynamics Team has reduced the induced movement during pedaling by 20% while keeping the suspension active for more effective impact management. Thus, the rider can maintain the most efficient pedaling position. The result is the most efficient dual-suspension bike ever made.
  
• With the Epic 8, not a single gram of weight has been added to improve its features. All models now come with SWAT 4.0 and an integrated headset lock to prevent frame damage in case of slips.
  
• The new S-Works Epic 8 frame is even 76 grams lighter, despite adding these features.
  
• RockShox SIDLuxe ULTIMATE shock developed together with Ride Dynamics and SID ULTIMATE fork.
  
• Three settings for the shock with dedicated tuning.
