Specialized Epic Evo Expert is streets ahead of its rivals in sizing and geometry. Long reach gives you freedom to get creative on any trail.
Fast and light
Expensive
Dec 2020 · Guy Kesteven
Extremely light for the category and stiffer and slacker to be faster uphill and down, the new Epic Evo is a blisteringly quick and enjoyable XC/Trail bike if you don’t want extra reach
Superlight frame weight
Impressive stiffness
Excellent SID suspension combo
Great suspension tune
Confident steering
Smart kit choice
Tall seat tube limits upsizing
Controls hit the top tube
Slow freehub engagement
Comp version is even better value
No SWAT downtube storage

What happens when you take one of the lightest hardtail mountain bikes, add drop bars and send it off on a bikepacking trip? We did exactly that with the Specialized S-Works EPIC HT AXS Custom and tell you whether the concept works.
Acceleration
Best of the best components
Confidence-inspiring handling
Amazing concept for racers
Frame requires delicate treatment
Fork sags when you pedal standing up
Jul 2020 · Tom Marvin
A great frame that’s let down by lacklustre kit, but is a solid platform to upgrade from
Geometry great for aggressive riders looking to maximise speed up and downhill
High-volume tyres boost comfort and grip on all but the slippiest of trails
Quality of components
Fork has a less refined feel through its stroke than others

As cross-country bikes evolve, it's no surprise that the Specialized Epic Evo is already a step ahead. It adds travel and length, and loses one element.

Specialized has done a really good job of taking one bike and making it equally competitive for two different types of riders. If you search out the longest backcountry trails or like to get to the top of your local spot at record time, you may want to take the Epic Evo S-Works for a spin. Read our full review here!

The Specialized Epic EVO is all-new for 2021, and it has finally ditched the Brain. Along with its new FACT carbon frame and radical geometry, this is one XC bike that is totally dialled for trail-ripping. Read on for our 2021 Specialized Epic EVO review.
Superbly balanced suspension performance
Totally up-for-it geometry
Comfortable all-day riding position
Stupendously light Roval Control SL wheels
Dual bottle friendly
The well-engineered but practical frameset
The mind-boggling price
Burlier rubber, particularly on the rear, wouldn't go amiss
