- Unmatched Capability: The Epic 8 sets the standard as the most capable 120mm bike on the planet, offering progressive geometry for technical terrain capability alongside efficient climbing and acceleration performance.
- Enhanced Suspension Performance: Custom valved shocks and tuned damping characteristics absorb 12% more bump and vibration forces compared to previous generations, providing a smoother and more powerful ride experience.
- Optimized Ride Dynamics: Specialized's Ride Dynamics team developed custom valving and optimized suspension kinematics to reduce pedal-induced bobbing by 20%, ensuring efficient pedaling while effectively managing bump forces.
- Integrated SWAT 4.0: All models feature SWAT 4.0 for convenient storage of trail essentials, while an integrated steering stop prevents damage during crashes. The new S-Works Epic 8 frameset has even shed weight while gaining these enhancements.
- Premium Components: Equipped with Ride Dynamics developed SIDLuxe Select+ shock and SID Select+ fork, Roval Control carbon wheels, SRAM Level Bronze Stealth 4-Piston brakes, and GX Eagle AXS Transmission for smooth shifting under load.
- Seat Binder: Specialized Alloy, 34.9, Steel bolt.
