Samenvatting

The Specialized Epic is a highly efficient and capable cross-country bike, praised for its updated Brain suspension platform, lightweight design, and improved geometry. It excels in technical terrain and climbs, though some riders find the Brain system polarizing and the bike can be harsh on rough trails. The Epic is often compared to other top-tier XC bikes like the Specialized Epic EVO and Rocky Mountain Element.

Pros
  • Updated Brain suspension platform for efficient and capable performance

  • Lightweight design with significant weight savings

  • Improved geometry for better stability and handling

  • Efficient power transfer and climbing ability

  • Confidence-inspiring in technical sections

Cons
  • Brain suspension system can be polarizing and difficult to adjust

  • Harsh ride on rough trails for some riders

  • High price point for some models

  • Limited size options for shorter riders

Key Quotes
This is lighter than its predecessor, with a stiffer frame and suspension that’s more resistant to downforce from the rider when closed, with smoother and faster transitions to open
Bicycling
In our experience, this Epic has to be one of the best handling 100mm travel 29ers available.
Flow Mountain Bike logoFlow Mountain Bike
The best way to describe the Epic is 'confidence inspiring.'
Mountain Flyer logoMountain Flyer
Without doubt one of the best race bikes I have ever ridden.

Specialized Epic Pro review

jan 2021 · Tom Marvin

As fast up as it is down, from an XC and marathon viewpoint the Epic is a top contender

Hoogtepunten
  • You can’t forget to unlock your suspension, so the bike always performs well

  • Kit all performs exceptionally well

  • Contemporary geometry gives a blend of snappy handling and technical ability

Dieptepunten
  • Rear Brain isn’t adjustable on the fly, so pre-riding the course may be necessary

Bike Perfect
Specialized Epic Evo Expert review

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

Hoogtepunten
  • Superlight frame weight

  • Impressive stiffness

  • Excellent SID suspension combo

  • Great suspension tune

  • Confident steering

  • Smart kit choice

Dieptepunten
  • Tall seat tube limits upsizing

  • Controls hit the top tube

  • Slow freehub engagement

  • Comp version is even better value

  • No SWAT downtube storage
