Mountain bike Specialized EPIC WC EXPERT

The Specialized EPIC WC EXPERT is the fastest XC race bike in the world, engineered to dominate smooth to moderately technical courses with unparalleled efficiency, control, and lightweight performance. Developed with input from World Champion Christopher Blevins, this bike delivers the snappy acceleration of a hardtail with the capability and control of full suspension.
Revolutionary Frame & Shock Technology
The Epic World Cup features an ultra-stiff carbon frame designed for maximum power transfer and precision handling. Specialized engineers integrated the shock into the top tube, creating the most structurally advanced double diamond frame layout in XC racing.

Ride Dynamics-Tuned Suspension
Co-developed with RockShox, the SID Deluxe WCID shock introduces a game-changing independently adjustable positive and negative air spring system, allowing riders to customize the suspension feel from ultra-firm to plush. The Mega Jounce Bumper, an industry-first innovation, ensures smooth bottom-out control on high-impact landings, allowing the bike to perform like a 100mm suspension system while maintaining 75mm of rear travel.

Brain Technology in the Fork
While the rear suspension delivers unrivaled pedaling efficiency, the SID SL BRAIN fork (110mm travel) enhances small-bump sensitivity and automatically adjusts to terrain changes, eliminating the need for a remote lockout system.

Lightweight & Stiffness for Maximum Speed
At 1,915 grams (including shock and hardware, painted), the Epic WC frame is one of the lightest full-suspension XC frames ever made. Its advanced composite layup, inspired by the Aethos road frame, ensures razor-sharp acceleration, effortless climbing, and responsive handling—all translating to pure race-winning speed.

Elite-Level Components for Maximum Performance
Equipped with the SRAM GX Eagle Transmission, the Epic WC Expert ensures precise and ultra-reliable wireless shifting, while Roval Control carbon wheels with a 29mm internal width provide stability, control, and durability for aggressive XC racing.
