Specialized Epic Evo Harvest Gold/Black

Epic Evo 2023 | Marathon fully

Remember when cross country wasn't just about competition? Yes, us too... Our Epic EVO will definitely never turn down a race number, but it's just as keen to trade any finish line for a breathtaking ridgeline. With its incredible combination of pedalling efficiency and impressive trail taming ability, it will take you to your dream destination with ease. Although the Epic EVO has a seemingly modest increase in travel of 20mm front and 10mm rear compared to its stablemate Epic, we've spared no effort to ensure that these are implemented in a way that will leave you absolutely amazed on the first bit of singletrack. The new kinematics of the EVO suspension have been developed with immense care to ensure none of the Epic's outstanding efficiency is lost. Working in perfect harmony with the shock in the bespoke Rx XC tune, it ensures you get the most out of every inch of travel while maintaining increased anti-squat characteristics for improved pedalling efficiency. With plenty of practice riding up front, the Epic EVO claims to be the most capable version of our progressive XC geometry to ever grace an Epic. The Epic EVO is also more versatile than ever thanks to the new flip-chip rear end, which allows you to change the head angle and bottom bracket height to easily adjust the ride characteristics. The Epic EVO Base's FACT 11m carbon frame is a lightweight frame and equipped with heavyweight SRAM components and RockShox suspension. This bespoke package will leave the miles behind you faster than ever before. Flip It To Rip It! Use the flip-chip to tune the handling of the FACT 11m carbon frame to your preferred riding characteristics. The Epic EVO allows you to reduce the head angle by half a degree and lower the bottom bracket by 10 mm. RockShox's Reba RL suspension fork dives through its travel with stoic calm thanks to the Motion Control damper unit, while the easy handling of the SoloAir air spring makes adjusting the suspension a breeze. SRAM's NX Eagle drive is the benchmark when it comes to the price-performance ratio of high-performance drives. It delivers crisp gear shifts and an enormous gear range of 450%.
