Expirience with the Specialized S-Works Epic EVO LTD

Ludwig Döhl With a little more suspension travel than the classic Epic, the S-Works Epic EVO LTD wants to be ridden properly on single trails. 10,5 kg is great value for the total weight of a Downcountry-Bike. On all kinds of trails, the Specialized Fully therefore rides significantly lighter-footed than its competitors. Thanks to a moderate 66,5 degree head tube angle, the handling is pleasantly balanced. The sporty riding position allows for very effective pedaling. The way to the summit is not one of the strengths of this bike. For this, the shifting components are pretty much the best thing you can expect on a complete bike for 12500 Euro . Specialized gives 25 years warranty on the bike.
