Zusammenfassung
The Specialized Epic is a high-performance cross-country bike praised for its lightweight frame, advanced suspension technology, and versatile handling. It excels in both climbing and descending, offering a plush ride quality and efficient pedaling. The RockShox Flight Attendant suspension system is frequently highlighted as a game-changer, adapting seamlessly to terrain. However, its premium features come at a high cost, and some models lack the Flight Attendant system.

Specialized has thrown down a very impressive, maximum velocity benchmark with the new Epic 8.
The end result is a bike that’s purported to be both more efficient and more compliant than its predecessors, making it 'the most capable 120mm bike on the planet.'
The S-Works Epic 8 is a real climbing machine.

Das Specialized Epic 8 könnte eines der besten Race-Fullys sein. Was passiert, wenn es 3200 Kilometer im Dauerbetrieb läuft? Hier ist die Abrechnung des Dauertests.

The result is a single-frame design that, depending on the components added, can be either a competitive XC racing rig or a confident trail bike that is ready for anything thrown its way.

During the darkest part of the Northwest winter, I found myself aboard the new Specialized Epic 8 Evo Pro, a short-travel speed demon. After a nasty broken elbow, the Epic Evo and I seem to be sharing new titanium hardware. With 130 millimeters of travel up front and 120 at the rear, the new Epic is a cross-country bike that leans more toward gnarlier terrain than a true race bred rig as it seamlessly blends efficiency with just enough grit to tackle unforgiving trails. Even as I pedaled slow and muddy singletrack, this bike remained remarkably zippy—a testament to its short travel, low build weight, and efficient frame kinematics. Specialized has managed to shave off a few grams from the previous model iteration while producing a stable, refined ride. As I climbed, the Epic Evo’s main standout feature was efficiency. Despite the slow winter dirt, I was usually climbing with enough speed to generate a slight wind on my face. The rear shock platform felt taught and supportive under pedaling load. One of the most notable qualities of the Evo, while both climbing and descending, was the frame’s ability to eat high-frequency vibrations from the trail. My left elbow is fairly sensitive as it recovers from the break and, even with only 120 millimeters of travel, the Evo maintained a soft touch while clambering over roots and rocks.

The new Specialized Epic 8 is a downcountry ripper disguised as a race bike. Or maybe it's the other way around. Either way, this bike is fast and fun!

Goodbye Brain, hello SWAT and Flight Attendant

Specialized’s cult favorite rowdy XC winner jumps up a whole weight category to burly downcountry, but does it still have the race speed our expert tester loved before?
Excellent tech taming longer, lower mainframe geometry
XC weight frame with punchy pedaling leaves trail competitors standing
Fox Factory Grip2 fork, Float shock and Transfer dropper
Puncture reducing rims and grippy T9/T7 Grid tires
Generous internal storage, SWAT stem and two bottle cage mounts
Nearly a kilo heavier than the previous Epic Evo Comp
Shock feels too firm at times
Limited rear tire space

Wir hatten das Specialized Epic EVO 2024 im Test. Doch was kann der große Bruder des XC Racebikes? Wir verraten es euch.
Mehr Confidence als das Epic
Short-Travel-Bike mit Staufach
Dämpfer-Tune
Wenig Komfort für ruppige Schotterstraßen
