SPECIALIZED EPIC 8 EXPERT Di2

The new Specialized Epic 8 represents the ultimate evolution of the XC platform, designed to combine maximum pedaling efficiency, lightness, and control on increasingly technical modern trails. The FACT 11m carbon frame with Progressive XC Race geometry and Rider-First Engineered™ technology ensures precise and responsive handling, while the integrated SWAT system allows accessories to be carried directly in the frame. The 120 mm suspension, developed with RockShox and Ride Dynamics, offers a perfect balance between sensitivity on small bumps and support in faster sections. The Shimano XT Di2 groupset provides precise and immediate electronic shifting, while the Roval Control SL V wheels complete a package designed for maximum XC race performance.
