Key Benefits for Riders

Shocking Performance: The Ultimate Efficiency and Control

The SID Deluxe WCID shock, co-developed with RockShox, offers an unparalleled combination of hardtail-like efficiency and full suspension control. The unique independently adjustable positive and negative air springs give riders the ability to fine-tune their setup for a personalized, efficient, and forgiving ride. Whether set firm for hardtail performance or open for maximum comfort, this shock system provides a ride like no other.

Unmatched Suspension for XC Racing

The 75mm of rear travel on the Epic World Cup delivers the control and capability typically found in longer travel bikes, while maintaining the efficiency and light weight necessary for cross-country racing. The Mega Jounce Bumper provides smooth management of bottom-out impacts, ensuring a controlled ride even on the toughest descents. Together with the SID SL BRAIN fork, which provides 110mm of bump-muting performance, this bike is ready for anything the trail throws your way.

Built for Speed: Lightweight, Stiff, and Responsive

At just 1,915 grams for the frame (painted with shock and hardware), the Epic World Cup is one of the lightest cross-country bikes available. This low weight translates to faster acceleration, more efficient climbing, and agile handling, helping you keep up the pace on any terrain. The frame’s stiffness is maximized with advanced composite layup and tube shapes, derived from the Aethos, making this bike incredibly responsive while maintaining durability.

Precision Handling with the Best Components

Equipped with Roval Control carbon wheels, featuring a modern 29mm internal width hookless rim, the Epic World Cup offers a perfect balance of strength, durability, and weight savings. Paired with the SRAM GX transmission, this bike offers smooth, precise shifting performance, even in the most demanding conditions, making it ideal for modern cross-country races.

Race-Ready Design with Proven Geometry

With Ride Dynamics Developed suspension technology and 75mm of optimized rear wheel travel, the Epic World Cup provides exceptional pedal efficiency, capable of handling the toughest descents without any need for lockout switches. The SRAM Level Bronze 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes ensure you have total control, even at high speeds, with superior stopping power and durability.
