Specialized Epic Expert - Black

Specialized Epic Expert, when speed is needed, Epic Expert shouts "take me if you can!" With a very efficient suspension platform, 100m of excursions on both the front and rear gaining seconds on the stopwatch becomes a safety. A smarter BRAIN. Hardtail efficiency and full capacity lead to results. Epic stands for speed and stands out for over 100 World Cup victories and podiums. The Epic with the new Brain re-defines expectations in terms of efficiency, thanks to a racing calibration that transforms each watt expressed on the pedals into forward movement, and at the same time the shocks are absorbed to maintain momentum. Epic's new chassis focuses on efficient power transfer and improved handling. The rear is 15% stiffer than the previous version in order to take advantage of the new BRAIN platform with racing calibration. The stiffness / weight ratio is more powerful than ever.
