Specialized Epic 8 Evo Expert

The Specialized Epic 8 EVO is the next evolution of XC performance, designed for riders who crave more versatility, control, and all-around capability. Built with 120mm of travel, this bike redefines what a cross-country bike can do, delivering superior handling on everything from fast, flowy trails to rough, technical terrain. The Epic 8 EVO’s progressive geometry and refined suspension kinematics provide the perfect balance between efficient climbing and confident descending, ensuring you stay in control no matter the conditions. With a custom-tuned shock and improved bump absorption, the Epic 8 EVO soaks up the trail, letting you push harder, ride longer, and finish stronger.

Engineered for riders who demand both speed and precision, the Epic 8 Evo features the same exceptional pedaling efficiency as its sibling, with 20% less pedal-induced bobbing for smoother power transfer. But it goes further with added capability for more aggressive riders and terrain. The frame is lighter by 76 grams, while still incorporating SWAT 4.0 for easy trail storage and integrated steering stops for added durability. Whether you're racing or exploring rugged trails, the Epic 8 EVO’s innovative design and engineering give you the best of both worlds—lightweight speed and unmatched technical control.

Sizing Guide

The sizing chart is a great place to start when picking your next bike but everyone will fit a bike a bit differently. Your torso, arm, and leg lengths all play into what size of bike you may need. Plus, there's your own personal preference.

We always recommend swinging by the shop and taking the bike that you're looking for a spin to see how it feels. If you're unable to come by, looking at the geometry of your current bike and comparing it is a good place to start. If you have any further questions, our customer service team is there to help.
