Expirience with the Specialized S-Works Epic LTD

Ludwig Döhl The Epic Fully is a classic among race bikes. Christopher Belvins, Haley Batten and Sina Frei are currently riding it across the World Cup slopes at top speed. So there is no doubt that the S-Works Epic LTD also makes heads turn on the race track. With lean 10,15 kg, the S-Works Epic LTD is among the lightest bikes in this category. When it comes down to handling, Specialized does not compromise. With its balanced handling style, the Racebike von Specialized is ready for the majority of singletrails. Well trained athletes are likely to really enjoy the sporty seating position. Finally, here is another killer argument: in price range in light terrain, the Racebike von Specialized is one of the best models in the in light terrain category. The guarantee promise of 25 years ensures trust. Caution when selecting the size: the Carbon frame sizing runs big.
