SPECIALIZED EPIC 8 EVO COMP 25 BIKE

The world's fastest downcountry bike. The EVO is the Epic 8 version designed for downcountry, offering an unparalleled combination of capability, efficiency, and lightweight performance. The Epic 8 EVO's kinematics make it incredibly efficient uphill, while the Ride Dynamics-tuned suspension absorbs impacts on rough descents. If you love high-speed singletrack rides with friends, the Epic 8 EVO is perfect for you.

GREAT CAPABILITY: With 120mm of travel and progressive geometry, the Epic 8 is extremely capable on technical trails, very fast and efficient on climbs, and incredibly responsive in acceleration. Its torsional and lateral rigidity ensures precise handling. With a 130mm fork, the Epic 8 EVO is at ease on the roughest descents.

WHAT BUMPS? Compared to the previous model, the Epic 8 absorbs 12% more impact forces and vibrations, reducing fatigue so you can use your energy more effectively to push the pedals to the max.

RIDE DYNAMICS: The Specialized Ride Dynamics Team has developed a custom tune for the Epic 8 shock, enhancing the holistic riding experience. The specific tuning, combined with leverage ratios and improved kinematics, exponentially improves ride quality.

BIOMECHANICAL EFFICIENCY: By optimizing the Epic 8's kinematics, the Specialized Ride Dynamics Team has reduced pedal-induced movement by 20% while keeping the suspension active for better impact management. This allows the rider to maintain a more efficient pedaling position. The result is the most efficient full-suspension bike we’ve ever made.

MORE WITH LESS: The Epic 8 gains no extra weight while improving performance. All models now feature SWAT 4.0 and an integrated steering limiter to prevent frame damage in case of falls.
