| Style | The all-new 2024 Specialized Epic 8 Comp Full Suspension Mountain Bike evolves the formula of fastest through capability, efficiency, and lightweight integration. Modern XC tracks demand more and more capability by the day. Enter Epic 8. Its improved kinematics make it the most efficient pedalling bike Specialized have ever tested, while custom valved (and tuned) shocks soak up every bump. The most capable 120mm bike on the planet. You- ?ll be blown away by how Epic 8- ?s progressive geometry delivers technical terrain capability alongside fast and efficient climbing and acceleration performance. The absurd lateral and torsional rigidity of the chassis translates to some seriously precision handling, too. Compared to the previous generation, the new Epic 8 absorbs 12% more bump and vibration forces than the previous generation, leaving you less fatigued and more powerful over time so you can still push while they suffer. The Specialized Ride Dynamics team developed custom valving for Epic 8- ?s new shock. By tuning the dampers alongside the chassis- ? leverage rates and new kinematics, Specialized are able to deliver a bike that rides beyond the sum of its parts. By optimizing the kinematics of the suspension, Specialized- ?s Ride Dynamics team reduced inefficient pedal-induced bobbing by 20%, while maintaining active suspension for effective bump force management, to ensure you remain in the most efficient pedalling position. It- ?s the most efficient pedalling suspension bike we- ?ve ever tested. |
