Specialized Epic 8 Comp Description:
The Specialized Epic 8 Comp is an incredibly capable, efficient, and lightweight XC MTB bike complete with system integration that delivers incredible performance over a wide variety of trail conditions/types. XC mountain bike courses have evolved to newer heights with technical details that require more daring and skill from every rider; the Epic 8 Comp delivers improved kinematics that conquers climbs and custom-valve, custom-tuned shocks that take the sting out of harsh bumps. The SRAM Eagle AXS transmission operates consistently in all situations, including under load, for shifting that can answer the demands of fast-paced technical climbs on tricky race courses or your favorite training grounds. Integrated hydraulic disc brake housing routing results in the cleanest lines found in modern mountain bikes when combined with SRAM Level Bronze Stealth brake levers for an almost invisible look from the rider's perspective. Specialized's internal R+D team, Ride Dynamics, worked to custom tune the performance of the equipped RockShox SIDLuxe Select+ shock and SID Select fork resulting in shocks that move in a way that drive every bit of potential out of the Epic 8 Comp.
