Designed to be the lightest and fastest bike on the XC course, the Specialized S-Works Epic World Cup Frameset is here to claim the podium. The Epic World Cup is the elite race version of the Epic and features a supple 75mm of rear wheel travel powering their WCID suspension design. Updated suspension kinematics and a Ride Dynamics tuned shock pair together to bring us epic performance on the trail and more composure and confidence on the gnarliest XC courses. The World Cup is equipped with a 66. 5-degree head tube angle for better frame geometry when the trails get steeper, and the short and snappy chainstays and a short wheelbase ensure the S-Works Epic World Cup remains the pocket rocket we know and love. Specialized and RockShox worked to gather to produce their SID Deluxe WCID shock, which uses Brain technology to fit us with the proper sag and makes for a super efficient ride without having to do anything. The Epic World Cup Frameset includes RockShox's premium SID SL Ultimate Brain fork, RockShox-Specialized SIDLuxe WCID Ultimate rear shock, and Roval's Control SL carbon Seatpost to bring us the top-tier performance and a super light overall weight. The S-Works Epic World Cup Frameset is finished with an integrated chainstay protector to protect our frame from chain slap, and an integrated chain guide helps keep our chain on the chainring through rough terrain. *Due to a high demand in the global supply chain and bike industry since the start of the pandemic, material weight and exact components are subject to change. We are working diligently to keep tech specs updated, and any adjustments will be of equal or better spec level.
