Samenvatting
The Specialized Epic EVO is a trail bike that excels with its updated geometry, increased travel, and innovative features like the Flight Attendant suspension system and in-frame SWAT storage. It's praised for its handling and suspension performance, making it suitable for technical trails and all-day adventures. However, some reviews note a firm shock tune and limited rear tire clearance as drawbacks.
Updated geometry and increased travel
Flight Attendant suspension system for automatic adjustment
In-frame SWAT storage
Excellent handling on technical trails
Lightweight frame
Firm shock tune at times
Limited rear tire clearance
Flight Attendant adds weight
The Epic is built off a race chassis, whereas the Stumpy is definitely an all-around trail bike.
BIKE MagazineThe new Epic Evo is perfect for the increasing category of riders who want full trail attack capability, but with the agility, punch and efficiency that gives the kind of climbing and acceleration gains you’d otherwise have to get an e-bike to unleash.
FreehubThe Epic 8 handled all of it exceptionally well.

Eye-watering pricing aside, the Epic 9 makes a strong case as the benchmark XC platform—with one annoying “upgrade”.

It's lighter and sharper, but the bigger story is how one bike replaces the brand’s XC lineup.

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
mrt 2024 · Guy Kesteven
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
