The Full Scoop on the Specialized S-Works Epic 8 EVO Di2
The Epic 8 EVO is built for riders who live for fast singletrack, big climbs, and even bigger smiles.

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.
