Specialized Epic 9 Expert
The Specialized S-Works Epic 9 represents the evolution of the fastest, engineered to be the lightest, most efficient, and most capable full-suspension XC race bike ever created. Developed through over two decades of World Cup-winning innovation and refined by the Specialized Science Club, the Epic 9 is built to eliminate inefficiency, maximize momentum, and deliver unmatched speed on modern cross-country courses.
At its core is the FACT 11m carbon frame, weighing just 1,589 grams and making it the lightest full-suspension XC frame ever produced. Using advanced FEA optimization and obsessive gram-saving design, Specialized reduced weight without sacrificing stiffness, resulting in explosive power transfer and precise handling. The updated suspension system features 120mm of front and rear travel with 11% less friction and refined kinematics, delivering a ride that is both more efficient under power and more composed through rough terrain.
The Epic 9’s Dynamic Trio suspension damping, Wide Open, Magic Middle, and Sprint-On Lock—allows riders to adapt instantly to changing terrain, balancing traction, efficiency, and maximum speed. Race-proven geometry, refined using Body Geometry data, ensures optimal rider positioning, improved control, and confident handling across technical climbs and aggressive descents. Built to perform at the highest level, the Epic 9 is equipped with a SRAM GX Eagle Transmission drivetrain for precise shifting and a Roval Control SL VI wheelset for lightweight speed and durability.
