1974 to 2024: A 50-Year Tradition of Innovation

As Specialized celebrates its 50th Anniversary of innovating to improve riders’ lives, we have our sites set on the next half century and creating the future of cycling. Join us as we look back at five decades of innovation so we can continue to Pedal the Planet Forward together.

Capability

Capability

The Epic 8 sets the bar as the most capable 120mm bike on the planet. This level of performance is made possible through a holistic development approach of geometry, chassis, kinematics, custom shock damping, and spring curve.

Efficiency

Efficiency

The new Epic 8 is the most efficient pedaling suspension bike we’ve ever tested, while maintaining traction and absorbing bumps. Reducing inefficient pedal-induced bobbing by 20% and absorbing 12% more bump force vibrations, you’re climbing using less energy and feeling fresher on the descents.

Light Weight Integration

Light Weight Integration

Epic 8 gained its major capability and additional features with zero weight penalty. Through rigorous testing in our Morgan Hill, CA carbon lab, we were able to optimize tube weights while giving Epic tuned stiffness, SWAT 4.0 carrying capabilities, and steering stop.

Den helt nye Epic 8 utvikler konseptet for den raskeste sykkelen gjennom kapabilitet, effektivitet og lettvektsintegrasjon. Moderne XC-løyper krever mer og mer kapabilitet for hver dag som går. Her kommer Epic 8. Den forbedrede kinematikken gjør den til den mest effektive sykkelen vi noensinne har testet, mens dempere med spesialventiler (og -innstillinger) absorberer hver eneste hump. Det er en ulv i ulveklær.

Hvis du er en XC-syklist eller prioriterer full fart i syklingen din, er Epic 8 sykkelen for deg.

MÅTEFULL KAPASITET: Den mest kapable 120 mm-sykkelen på planeten. Du kommer til å bli imponert over hvordan Epic 8s progressive geometri leverer tekniske terrengegenskaper sammen med rask og effektiv klatring og akselerasjon. Chassisets absurde sideveis- og vridningsstivhet gir deg også svært presise kjøreegenskaper.

HVA BUMP? Sammenlignet med den forrige generasjonen absorberer den nye Epic 8 12 % mer støt- og vibrasjonskrefter enn den forrige generasjonen, noe som gjør at du blir mindre utmattet og mer kraftfull over tid, slik at du fortsatt kan presse på mens de lider.

RIDE DYNAMICS TUNED: Specialized Ride Dynamics-teamet har utviklet spesialtilpassede ventiler for Epic 8s nye demper. Våre unike Ride Dynamics-foreskrevne dempekarakteristikker løfter kjøreopplevelsen på en helhetlig måte. Ved å innstille demperne sammen med chassisets utvekslingsrate og den nye kinematikken, kan vi levere en sykkel som sykler bedre enn summen av delene.

BIOMEKANISK EFFEKTIVITET: Ved å optimalisere kinematikken i dempingen har Specializeds Ride Dynamics-team redusert ineffektiv pedalindusert gynging med 20 %, samtidig som den aktive dempingen opprettholdes for effektiv håndtering av ujevnheter, slik at du forblir i den mest effektive pedalposisjonen. Det er den mest effektive dempersykkelen vi noensinne har testet.

MERE MED MINDRE: Med Epic 8 har vi ikke brukt et eneste ekstra gram for å få megakapasitet fra rammen. Alle modellene er nå utstyrt med SWAT 4.0, som har plass til alt du trenger på stiene, og et integrert styrestopp for å forhindre det berømte arret på overrøret første gang du krasjer og styret snurrer. Faktisk har det nye S-Works Epic 8-rammesettet til og med gått ned i vekt (76 gram, for å være nøyaktig) samtidig som det har fått disse nye funksjonene.

ROCKSHOX FLIGHT ATTENDANT: Frigjør tankene dine slik at du kan fokusere på å sykle fort når det virkelig gjelder. Specialized Ride Dynamics-tunet RockShox Flight Attendant (på S-Works-modeller) utnytter SRAM AXS Wireless-teknologi til å samle inn sanntidsdata fra deg og terrenget for å bestemme optimale kompresjonsinnstillinger og gi syklisten en uovertruffen opplevelse.

  • The most capable 120mm bike on the planet. 12% more bump absorption and 20% less pedal bob
  • Den mest kapable 120 mm-sykkelen på planeten. 12 % bedre demping av ujevnheter og 20 % mindre slark i tråkket.
  • Ride Dynamics-utviklet RockShox SIDLuxe ULTIMATE-demper og trimmet SID ULTIMATE-gaffel med Flight Attendant
  • Spesialtilpasset demper med 3 unike demperinnstillinger
  • Specialized Ride Dynamics-Tuned RockShox Flight Attendant samler inn sanntidsdata fra deg og terrenget for å finne optimale kompresjonsinnstillinger.
  • Ekstremt lette, lettkjørte og ekstra slitesterke Roval Control SL-hjul.
  • Elegant og lett Roval Control SL-integrert cockpit med lav vekt
  • Ultimate Stealth 4-stempelbremser i toppklassen gir overlegen bremseevne i forhold til vekten.
  • SRAM XX SL T-Type AXS-gir gir topp ytelse for girskift i terrenget.

Naughty purchase but I love it

Bit of an odd use case here as I am a creo/levo fan and have gone from evoke to analog with this a works epic. Firstly it’s v light; secondly it’s ridiculously light. No need to keep going on that one. The integrated axs electronics are awesome and the smart suspension is amazing. There’s a nasty axs sync bug when trying to group all the axs bits into a system but after 2 hrs I found a workaround-don’t link everything to the derailleur - link everything to the front shock otherwise you can’t connect to the axs phone app. Other than that, it’s close to perfection. The occasional switch from ‘you, only faster’ to ‘you, only slower’ is a lot of fun!

Expensive but worth it.

I know, I know, it's crazy to spend this kind of money on a "bike". But if you can afford it, and you won't end up divorced, DO IT!!! Once you get it set up, which takes a bit of patience and a great shop, Las Vegas Cyclery, you will start to watch how the bike (Flight Attendant) will learn how you ride and what you want out of this system. After now 5 rides, including an XC race, it is incredible how much it does the work for you if you are used to using a lockout prior to this. I have 2 big Stage races ahead of me this summer, Pisgah and BCBR and can't wait for this to hopefully help me get to the finish line in each. Really fun bike, but you have to like technology to appreciate what's happening.
