Specialized Epic World Cup Expert Electric Green/Forest Green Pearl 2023

Faster than expected: The Epic World Cup is the fastest cross-country race bike in the world thanks to its unrivaled combination of efficiency, control and low weight on light to medium-difficulty routes. World Champion Christopher Blevins said it best: “This bike gives me everything I love about hardtails, plus the control and capabilities of a fully.” Everything it took to build this speed machine was completely holistic Development approach, the invention of a radically new damper and four decades of experience in the off-road sector crowned with countless victories. New frame standards: In order to achieve maximum speed through mercilessly efficient power transmission and precise handling, our engineering team has set and achieved new standards in terms of torsional and bottom bracket stiffness. This feat required a holistic development approach that combined a structurally superior double diamond layout with a shock integrated into the top tube and incorporated the most sophisticated carbon layout in Specialized history. Shockingly fast: The Specialized Ride Dynamics team has developed revolutionary damper technology for the Epic World Cup that gives you the efficiency and snappy response of a hardtail plus the control and performance of a full-suspension bike - all with a simple setup. The SID Deluxe WCID damper, developed together with RockShox, uses a unique, independently adjustable positive and negative air spring. This provides the coveted snap of a hardtail and absorbs difficult terrain, maintains your momentum and forgives riding errors. The setup can be adapted to different routes or tailored to your preferences. If you set the Epic WC hard, it rides like a hardtail; in the softer setup, it clears the chunks out of the way. Not only do you have the option to open or close the compression, the simple nature of the setup also allows you to ride with or without sag. We've lost our minds: While the new and groundbreaking SID Deluxe WCID shock without BRAIN provides the unique mix of support and compliance in the rear, the BRAIN is still installed in the fork and is still lively. The Position Sensitive technology with 15 mm sag gives you a balanced ride and offers smooth compliance on small bumps and a rigid pedaling platform - without a handlebar remote control for the compression level.
