Specialized Epic World Cup review: the carving knife of XC   - Escape Collective

oct. 2023 · Dave Rome

In believing that full suspension is always the faster choice in mountain biking, the Epic WC is Specialized’s replacement for its top-tier cross-country race hardtails.

Points forts
  • Can be set to pedal like a hardtail

  • Is incredibly efficient on smooth surfaces

  • Dialled geometry

  • Lovely frame build quality

  • Good frame rigidity with no creaks or groans

  • No fiddly remote lockouts means an ultra-clean cockpit

  • Solid component spec choices with nice wheels and a powermeter.

Points faibles
  • Suspension can either feel choppy or have you wishing for a lockout

  • Poor headset sealing

  • Minimal weight advantage over a longer-travel full suspension

  • Brain-equipped fork still has a thunk

  • No dropper provided

  • SRAM Level brake lever feel and power.

Specialized Epic Hardtail Comp review - MBR

sept. 2023 · Alan Muldoon

Who is the Epic hardtail for? That’s the question I posed to the product manager responsible for Specialized’s XC race bikes. His response was both honest and telling. “It’s for anyone that wants an XC bike, but can’t stretch their budget to get a full suspension bike.” Best cross country mountain bikes: reviewed and rated by experts And it makes perfect sense. At 10.68kg without pedals, the Epic Hardtail Comp is a really light 29er for the money. To get even close to that target weight with a full suspension bike you’d easily be looking at double that, which instantly rules out those bikes for a lot of riders. Need to know Lightweight 29er XC race hardtail designed of speed Fact 11m carbon frame with threaded BB and 148m dropout spacing RockShox Reba RL fork delivers 100mm travel SRAM GX Eagle drivetrain with full range 10-52t cassette The cockpit has a 60mm stem and 750mm bar to enhance control Four frame sizes: S – XL  with entry-level bike for £3,300 And it makes perfect sense. At 10.68kg without pedals, the Epic Hardtail Comp is a really light 29er for the money. To get even close to that target weight with a full suspension bike you’d easily be looking at double that, which instantly rules out those bikes for a lot of riders. And weight is very important. XC racers are obsessed with it; their own, and that of the bike.  And for good reason. Because for a given power output, lighter is always going to be faster when going uphill. In fact, that’s where I really noticed the benefits of the Epic HT over much heavier trail forced hardtails. The combination of the faster rolling tyres and reduced weight instantly lure you into a false sense of fitness, and before you know it you have your sights set on distant riders that you know you can easily pick off. Specialized S-Works Epic World Cup: first ride review That’s not to say the Epic HT is amazing on the climbs. Fast, yes, but you do need to stay focused, pick good lines and wrestle the front end quite a bit. And that’s primarily because the Epic HT has a short 425mm chainstay length and relatively slack 74.2º seat tube angle. Taken together, these dimensions give the bike a more rearward weight bias, which makes the front end on the Epic is pretty flighty when seated climbing, at least on steeper gradients. And if the climb is chunky, then the relatively skinny 2.35in Specialized Fast Trak/Renegade tyre combo means you need to be on your A game not to lose traction or get knocked off line. Power delivery is direct and purposeful though, and the 100mm travel RockShox Reba fork really limits how much of your energy gets lost in compressing the suspension with every downstroke of the pedals. Approach the top of the cassette and SRAM’s cable operated Eagle transmission has less even jumps than Shimano’s 12-speed cassettes, but shifting is …Continue reading »

Points forts
  • Light, reactive ride. Nice damped feel to the carbon frame. SRAM GX Eagle drivetrain offers impressive performance

Points faibles
  • Shifter hits top tube. Cables rattle in frame. No dropper post. Geometry is dated

Specialized Epic EVO, TransAlp Tested

août 2023 · Maureen Gaffney

The Specialized Epic EVO nudges the racy XC bike into trail territory, making it the perfect choice for the BikeTransAlp multi-day stage race.

Points forts
  • It’s beautiful. Beauty may be skin deep, but let’s just admit aesthetics matter. I want to ride this bike. I want to be seen riding this bike

  • It’s lightweight

  • It’s incredibly capable. 29″ wheels with the perfect suspension combo make climbing actually enjoyable, while the addition of 10 more millimeters of suspension travel front and rear as compared to the Epic means descending is not compromised for the sake of climbing performance.

Points faibles
  • Shifter paddles not as adjustable or ergonomic as one might hope.

  • It costs nearly $9,000. I won’t say it’s not worth it, and this is not a high price in comparison to other bikes of this caliber. But it’s still nine thousand dollars and that’s a lot of rent or groceries.

First Look: 2023 Specialized Epic World Cup

avr. 2023 · Henry Quinney

In some ways the Epic World Cup isn't so much a full-suspension bike with a small dose of rear travel but rather a hardtail that happens to have 75mm of travel.

2021 Specialized Epic Comp review

mai 2021

The 2021 Specialized Epic Comp delivers a fast, reliable ride that feels at home on the racecourse and the trails. The BRAIN suspension works brilliantly, and the updated geometry makes it extremely capable. However, despite the Comp being the cheapest Epic model in the range, it's still at a price point that makes it unaffordable to some, despite the more basic componentry.
