The Specialized Epic 8 full-suspension mountain bike advances the formula for the fastest bike through the integration of capability, efficiency, and lightweight design. Modern XC trails require more and more skills every day. Epic 8 is coming. Thanks to improved kinematics, it's the most efficient bike ever tested in Specialized, where custom-tuned shock absorbers absorb every bump. It's a wolf in wolf's clothing.

If you're an XC racer or prefer to ride at top speed, the Epic 8 is the bike for you.

UNSURPASSED CAPABILITY: The world's most capable 120mm travel bike. You'll be amazed at how the progressive geometry of the Epic 8 delivers technical terrain capability along with fast, efficient climbing and acceleration. The absurd lateral and torsional stiffness of the frame is also reflected in the very precise handling.

WHAT INEQUALITIES?: Compared to the previous generation, the new Epic 8 absorbs 12% more shock and vibration than the previous generation, so you'll be less tired and can keep moving forward while others suffer.

TUNED RIDE DYNAMICS: The Specialized Ride Dynamics team has developed a custom setting for the Epic 8 shock. The unique damping characteristics prescribed by the folks at Ride Dynamics, holistically enhance the riding experience. By tuning the shocks, along with a frame re-tuning and new kinematics, you get a bike that rides better and better.

BIOMECHANICAL EFFICIENCY: By optimizing the suspension kinematics, the Specialized Ride Dynamics team reduced inefficient pedaling sway by 20%, while maintaining active suspension for effective bump absorption to keep you in the best pedaling position. It's the most efficient suspension bike ever developed in Specialized.

MORE AND LESS: You won't find a single extra gram of inefficiency with Epic 8. All Epic models are now equipped with the SWAT 4.0 system to hold all your essentials. The Epic also has an integrated steering stop to prevent scrapes on the top frame tube from falls and handlebar spins. Despite all the upgrades and additions, the new S-Works Epic 8 frameset has actually lost 76 grams.
