The Full Scoop on the Specialized Epic 8 Comp
The Epic 8 is built for riders who live for fast singletrack, big climbs, and even bigger smiles. It’s the bold, fully dialed version of the new Epic 8—lightweight, insanely capable, and tuned for serious fun. With updated kinematics for next-level efficiency and a Ride Dynamics-tuned shock that smooths out the rough stuff, it climbs like a rocket and descends like it’s on rails.
If chasing speed, crushing climbs, and high-fiving your crew at the bottom sounds like your kind of ride, the Epic 8 EVO is your perfect match.
