With a little more suspension travel than the classic Epic, the S-Works Epic EVO wants to be ridden properly on single trails. The geometry is moderate and makes for a balanced handling. Well trained athletes are likely to really enjoy the sporty seating position. At Carbon frame Specialized has not held back. The Fully-chassis makes an extremely good impression. In the price range above 8000 Euro, other manufacturers tend to install higher quality shifting systems. Another strong argument needs to be mentioned: the coherent geometry and the grippy tires will make you smile all the way to the bottom of the descent. With 25 years the warranty is another neat feature.
