The Specialized Epic 8 Expert Evo is a bike built for the serious rider. Whether you’re conquering rugged trails, racing through technical sections, or tackling steep climbs, this mountain bike is designed to deliver. With cutting-edge suspension technology, lightweight carbon construction, and SRAM AXS electronic shifting, the Epic 8 Expert Evo ensures that your every ride is smoother, faster, and more controlled than ever before.
Key Benefits for Riders
Unmatched Suspension for Every Trail
Equipped with the Fox Float Performance Elite shock and Fox 34 Performance Elite fork, the Epic 8 Expert Evo is engineered to handle the toughest trails with ease. The Ride Dynamics Tuned suspension ensures that the bike is responsive to both small bumps and big hits. Adjustability options such as compression settings and rebound allow for fine-tuned control, making the bike ideal for everything from technical descents to aggressive climbs.
Effortless Shifting with SRAM GX AXS
The SRAM GX AXS drivetrain offers smooth, intuitive shifting with no cables to clutter your cockpit. This electronic system provides instant gear changes, giving you precise control no matter the terrain. Paired with a SRAM GX Eagle 12-speed setup, this drivetrain allows for seamless performance whether you’re shifting through rocky terrain or maintaining your pace on long climbs.
Lightweight and Durable Carbon Frame
The FACT 11m carbon frame is the heart of the Epic 8 Expert Evo, offering a perfect balance of stiffness and compliance. Designed with Progressive XC Geometry, the frame provides an aggressive yet comfortable riding position, allowing you to ride harder and longer without sacrificing performance. The frame’s SWAT downtube storage provides a convenient and secure place for tools, snacks, or extra layers, while its internal cable routing keeps your setup clean and efficient.
Confidence-Inspiring Control and Safety
For riders who demand top-tier braking performance, the SRAM Code Bronze Stealth hydraulic disc brakes with 4-piston calipers provide powerful stopping power, even on the most technical trails. Whether you're navigating tight switchbacks or barreling down a descent, these brakes deliver the control you need. With a 180mm front rotor and a 200mm rear rotor, these brakes give you confidence in all conditions.
