Expirience with the Specialized Epic Hardtail Comp

Ludwig Döhl You prefer your bike to be used as a on long tours? Then the Racebike von Specialized and you could really hit it off. The trend towards more high speed stability geometries stops with Specialized. Good! Because with this balanced handling model, you are equipped for all situations on the trail. If you are already a little older, your back will love the comfortabel seating position of the Specialized Hardtail. If you love flying down steep, rocky and loamy trails, the Epic Hardtail Comp doesn't really suit you. Other manufacturers build Racebike in the same price range that are more focused on descends. Specialized gives 25 years warranty on the bike.
