The Specialized Epic 8 Comp Evo is a trail-focused evolution of the Epic 8, designed to offer incredible efficiency and control in technical terrain. The FACT 11m carbon frame balances stiffness and compliance, while the Ride Dynamics-tuned Fox suspension ensures confidence-inspiring traction and bump absorption.
With 120mm of rear travel and 130mm up front, the Epic 8 Evo is built for aggressive downcountry riding. Compared to its predecessor, it absorbs 12% more vibrations and reduces pedal bob by 20%, meaning you stay fresher on long rides. The SWAT 4.0 in-frame storage keeps your essentials within reach, and the integrated steering stop protects the frame during crashes.
The SRAM Eagle Transmission drivetrain delivers smooth, wireless shifting, while SRAM Code Bronze Stealth brakes offer powerful, controlled stopping. Rolling on 29” tubeless-ready wheels with a Purgatory T9 front tyre and Ground Control T7 rear, the Epic 8 Evo is optimised for speed and grip on technical terrain.
Whether you're pushing hard on technical XC trails or chasing flowy singletrack, the Epic 8 Comp Evo delivers an unmatched combination of lightweight efficiency, precision handling, and rugged durability.
