Get ready for double-takes when you ride the Specialized Epic Hardtail Mountain Bike as you tackle tough XC terrain on a hardtail. This bike blends speed and agility with confidence and capability, pushing the limits of what’s possible in cross-country racing.
For years, the race to build the lightest bike has led to compromises, often resulting in harsh, twitchy rides that sacrifice versatility. However, no one said that battling your own bike makes you faster. Specialized believe the fastest bike isn’t just the lightest, it’s the one that balances weight with performance and comfort.
Enter the Epic Hardtail: a bike that redefines what a hardtail can be. Specialized have designed every detail of the Epic Hardtail frame to be ultra-lightweight, but without compromising on comfort or capability. With aggressive, singletrack-inspired geometry, increased tyre clearance, and a frame engineered for greater vertical compliance, this bike is built for speed and comfort in equal measure.
The Epic Hardtail’s FACT 11m carbon frame, dropper-post compatibility, and advanced features like the RockShox Judy Gold fork and SRAM drivetrain deliver a ride that’s incredibly capable, remarkably light, and exceptionally comfortable. RockShox’s Motion Control Damper and Solo Air spring ensure smooth, predictable travel, while SRAM’s Level T hydraulic disc brakes offer powerful, intuitive stopping power.
The Specialized Epic Hardtail rewrites the rules of hardtail design, offering a bike that’s as fast as it is versatile.
