The 2023 Specialized Epic EVO takes the proven race DNA of the Epic and adds a dose of trail capability for riders who want more versatility. Its FACT 11m carbon frame is paired with 120mm of front travel and 110mm in the rear, offering a bit more forgiveness than the standard Epic while keeping the efficiency needed for XC speed. Progressive geometry, a dropper post, and wider tire clearance give it stability and control on technical descents, while still climbing with precision. Light, fast, and capable, the Epic EVO is a modern XC bike built for riders who like to race hard but also explore rougher singletrack.
