The Specialized S-Works Epic 8 represents a paradigm shift in cross-country biking, masterfully blending capability, efficiency, and a lightweight design to set a new standard in the sport. With its refined kinematics and custom-tuned shocks, this bike is the epitome of efficient pedaling, boasting the ability to absorb 12% more bumps while reducing pedal-induced bobbing by 20%.

Whether tackling technical climbs or fast descents, this bike is engineered to excel in every aspect of cross-country riding.
Tailored for XC racers and speed enthusiasts, the S-Works Epic 8 is a powerhouse of innovation and performance. The integration of SWAT 4.0 offers practical storage solutions within the frame, allowing you to carry essential tools and gear without compromising the bike's sleek design. The integrated steering stop enhances stability by preventing over-rotation during aggressive maneuvers, while the loss of 76 grams in frame weight underscores the bike's commitment to achieving more with less. The inclusion of the Ride Dynamics-Tuned RockShox Flight Attendant, which leverages SRAM AXS Wireless technology for real-time data analysis and optimal compression settings, ensures that the S-Works Epic 8 adapts to every trail condition with precision.
Complementing its advanced suspension system, the S-Works Epic 8 is equipped with top-tier components that further elevate its performance. The Roval Control SL wheels offer exceptional strength and lightness, while the Level Ultimate Stealth 4-Piston brakes provide powerful and consistent stopping power. The SRAM XX SL T-Type AXS Transmission delivers seamless shifting and reliability, making every ride smooth and efficient. From its meticulously engineered frame to its cutting-edge technology, the Specialized S-Works Epic 8 is a masterclass in cross-country performance, designed to push the boundaries of what's possible in competitive cycling.
