When it comes to speed, the Epic Expert from Specialized doesn't just respond, it shouts back, "Catch me if you can!" This mountain bike features the most efficient suspension platform ever seen on a World Cup start line. With 100-millimeters of Brain-controlled travel both front and rear, the Epic Expert is designed to shave seconds off your time.The Epic Expert combines the efficiency of a hardtail with the capabilities of a full-suspension bike, delivering impressive speed. Specialized has a long history of success in the World Cup, with over 100 wins and podium finishes. The latest Epic continues this tradition, utilizing the most efficient Brain suspension ever created to ensure it always performs at its best.The new BRAIN design has been re-engineered alongside the latest Epic, setting a new standard for efficiency. It features a race-tuned pedaling platform that translates every watt of energy into forward motion. It also effectively absorbs vibrations and impacts, providing a smoother ride than ever before.The Epic's frame has been redesigned to enhance power transfer and handling performance. Made from FACT 11m carbon, the frame is 15% stiffer in the rear triangle to fully utilize the new pedaling platform. The revised carbon layup in the front triangle reduces weight, resulting in an even higher stiffness-to-weight ratio for the Epic.
