KEY FEATURES

Why we like the Specialized Epic 8 EVO Expert Di2
Capability
The Epic 8 EVO sets the bar as the most capable 120mm bike on the planet. This level of performance is made possible through a holistic development approach of geometry, chassis, kinematics, custom shock damping, and spring curve. Spec'ing a 130mm fork, trail cockpit, big brakes, and meatier tires dials capability to 11.
Light Weight Integration
Epic 8 EVO gained its major capability and additional features with zero weight penalty. Through rigorous testing, the carbon was optimized for tuned stiffness, SWAT 4.0 downtube storage carrying capabilities, and a steering stop.
Dressed to Thrill
Epic 8 EVO supports more spirited trail riding by creating a more neutral rider position with its riser bars and shorter stem. 130mm of front travel and grippy trail tires can take you to the edge, while the powerful brakes keep things in check.
