Specialized S-Works Epic World Cup (2024)

Unleash the Speed Demon within with the Epic World Cup S-Works Full Suspension 29" Mountain Bike! This bad boy is the Usain Bolt of XC race bikes, conquering smooth to moderately technical courses like nobody's business. It's the brainchild of a team that merged genius engineering, a radical new shock, and decades of off-road dominance. No wonder World Champ Christopher Blevins raved about it, saying "it's like a hardtail on steroids, with full suspension control and capability!"

When it comes to speed, this bike means business. The Specialized engineering team raised the bar in torsional rigidity and BB stiffness, delivering unparalleled power transfer and precision handling. The frame is a masterpiece, boasting a structurally superior double diamond layout with a shock cradled inside the top-tube, making it sleek and wickedly fast.

The Specialized Ride Dynamics team conjured up pure magic with the revolutionary SID Deluxe WCID shock. It grants you the snappy response of a hardtail while munching up any terrain in its path. Whether you want a hardtail-like feel or a terrain-taming beast, this shock has your back. Adjust it however you please, from firm to soft, and watch it unleash its fury!

Here's the kicker – the Epic World Cup may have 75mm of rear travel, but it punches above its weight class, delivering the control and capability of a much longer travel bike. It's like a ninja disguised as a sumo wrestler – you get the best of both worlds. Plus, the custom Mega Jounce Bumper keeps those impacts in check, ensuring smooth landings even on the gnarliest drops.

While the rear shock is out-of-this-world, the BRAIN technology in the fork ensures you get the best of both worlds. It knows when to be supple and compliant, and when to lock it down for efficient pedaling, without you having to lift a finger.

The weight-weenies out there will be thrilled to know that the Epic World Cup is as light as a feather. At a mere 1,765 grams, this bike is the epitome of acceleration, climbing prowess, and nimble handling. You'll be flying up those climbs, leaving the competition in the dust.

The Roval Control SL components  with a 1,240-gram wheelset, a 180-gram seat post, and a 250-gram integrated cockpit, you've got the ultimate trifecta of lightweight, stiffness, and control. These components are like rocket boosters, propelling you to new heights on the World Cup stage.

So, if you're ready to take on the trails with the speed and finesse of a superhero, the Epic World Cup S-Works Full Suspension 29" Mountain Bike is your trusty sidekick. Get ready to break records, leave competitors in your dust, and conquer the trails like never before!

Features:

• The all-new Epic World Cup frame features Ride Dynamics Developed suspension technology and 75mm of optimized rear wheel travel. Thanks to its shock technology, Epic World Cup delivers unmatched pedal efficiency and is ready for the roughest descents you can throw at it–no lockout switches required.
• SRAM XX SL transmission builds on what top riders need in shifting performance and robustness, making it perfectly matched for the brutal demands of off-road racing.
• An all-new SID SL BRAIN fork provides 110mm of bump-muting performance while discerning inputs from the ground or rider to provide ultimate efficiency.
• Created specifically to match the increased capabilities of the Epic World Cup, the Roval Control SL rim introduces a completely new offset rim profile that features a 29mm internal width that not only increases strength and reduces weight, but also improves pinch-flat resistance by 22-percent.
