Features Specialized Bike Epic 8 S-works 2024
 
The new S-Works Epic 8 is the pinnacle of XC racing. It's the most capable 120mm bike on the planet. More travel, a steeper head angle and a longer top tube translate into great capability and ride quality.
With a specific carbon layup FACT 12m, a carbon crank and titanium hardware, an additional 76 grams have been reduced compared to the previous S-Works Epic frame.
   
 
 The S-Works Epic 8 also comes equipped with the new suspension  Flight Attendant by RockShox, which houses a custom-tuned shock in the fork and shock, designed by our team at Ride Dynamics.
     
 
 That combination makes this suspension truly incredible. With its custom Ride Dynamics shocks, RockShox's new Flight Attendant suspension automatically and instantly switches between 3 compression damper settings (Open, Magic Middle, Closed) based on rider input. and the terrain to achieve the fastest and most efficient driving possible.
