Description

The fastest downcountry bike in the world. The EVO is the Epic 8 version designed for downcountry thanks to its unmatched combination of capability, efficiency, and lightness. The Epic 8 EVO, with its kinematics, is incredibly efficient on climbs, while the Ride Dynamics-tuned suspension absorbs impacts on obstacle-filled descents. If you love racing on singletrack at high speed with a group of friends, the Epic 8 EVO is for you.


LARGE CAPACITY:The 120mm travel and progressive geometry make the Epic 8 extremely capable on technical trails, very fast and efficient uphill, and incredibly responsive and quick in acceleration. The torsional and lateral stiffness also ensures perfect steering precision. With a 130mm travel fork, the Epic 8 EVO is at ease on the roughest descents.

WHAT IMPACTS? :In comparison to the previous model, the Epic 8 absorbs 12% more impact forces and vibrations, so you get less tired and can use your energy better to push the pedals to the max.

RIDE DYNAMICS:The Specialized Ride Dynamics Team has developed a custom tuning for the Epic 8 shock absorber, whose features elevate the holistic riding experience. The specific tuning developed together with the leverage ratios and the renewed kinematics exponentially improve the ride.

BIOMECHANICAL EFFICIENCY:Optimizing the kinematics of the Epic 8, the Specialized Ride Dynamics Team reduced pedal-induced movement by 20% while keeping the suspension active for more effective shock absorption. This allows the rider to maintain the most efficient pedaling position. The result is the most efficient full-suspension bike we have ever made.

SWAT:All models now feature SWAT 4.0 and an integrated steering lock to prevent frame damage in case of slides.


The bike with a 120mm rear travel is more capable. Shock absorption is increased by 12%, and bobbing is reduced by 20%.
FOX Float Performance Elita shock absorber tuned by Ride Dynamics and FOX 34 Performance Elite fork with 130mm travel.

- Roval Control carbon wheels, race-ready.
- SRAM Code Bronze Stealth brakes 4 pistons
- Reliable GX Eagle AXS transmission.
- SWAT 4.0 container in the oblique tube.

Suggestion:To immediately enjoy your new bike, consider adding the "bike assembled and adjusted by Cicli Drigani technicians" option to your cart for €49. With this service, your bike will be delivered assembled, adjusted, and ready to use. Without this option, the bike will arrive as packaged by the manufacturer and will require some technical adjustments before it can be used safely.
