2019 Specialized S-Works Epic Hardtail 29 MTB

2019 Specialized S-Works Epic Hardtail 29" Mountain Bike

Offering the discerning rider unrivalled performance out on the trails, the Specialized S-Works Epic Hardtail sits in a class of its own. More than just a featherweight cross-country mountain bike, this versatile machine has the capabilities to tackle terrain far beyond its short travel setup suggests.

Constructed from a premium FACT 12m carbon fibre and utilising a 12x148mm boost rear spacing, this lightweight bike is phenomenally stiff and durable, while the RockShox SID World Cup Brain fork offers uncompromising performance across any surface. Utilising a 15x110mm thru-axle and size specific travel, riders are ensured optimum geometry and control no matter their height, while the solo air setup provides silky smooth operation.

Being Specialized’s top tier hardtail, it is only right the S-Works Epic be fitted with SRAM’s most premium drivetrain. Providing an incredibly low overall weight and crisp, reliable shifting, the XX1 Eagle components are a pleasure to use, while the broad 10-50T 12-speed cassette offers exceptional climbing capabilities. Finished with matching SRAM Level hydraulic disc brakes, a confidence inspiring ride is guaranteed.

Rolling on a pair of carbon fibre Roval Control SL Wheels, the performance is further enhanced, with near instant pickup and lightning fast acceleration. Similarly, the Specialized Fast Trak Tyres hit the sweet spot between low rolling resistance and adequate grip, perfect for those looking to get the miles in, fast.
