S-Works Epic Carbon 29 Frameset XC Specialized 2021 Gloss Red Tint Fade Over Brushed Silver/Tarmac Black/White w/Gold Pearl

Don't worry, we get it... your fellow groupies think you're a bit particular. Maybe you're one of those who has saved your favorite grips in case they're ever replaced by a new model. Maybe your toolbox would make a quality control engineer blush. Whatever the case, we won't judge. Instead, the Epic S-Works Epic frame is here for you to let your discerning tastes run wild. We've sweated every last detail in the design of the S-Works frame, from an infinitely refined design program that re-examined every last layer of FACT 12m carbon to optimize weight savings and ride dynamics, to the weight-reducing carbon crankset, all so you can focus on the rest, knowing you're starting with the world's most efficient canvas.

A smarter Brain In terms of shape, the latest Epic continues the tradition, leveraging the most efficient Brain suspension we've ever created to make sure it's always associated with the word speed. Redesigned in tandem with the new Epic, the latest BRAIN design restores the expectation of efficiency, employing a new pedal platform tuned to ensure that every watt is transferred, while easily absorbing acquired inertia, as smoothly as possible.

New Frame Redesigned with a focus on efficient power transfer and safer handling, the Epic's new carbon frame features a 15 percent stiffer swingarm to take full advantage of the new BRAIN, while the new carbon front triangle design eliminates weight, making the Epic's already very high stiffness-to-weight ratio even higher. Perfectly matched to the frame's BRAIN system, the S-Works Epic fork benefits from RockShox's latest SID Ulitmate SL chassis for quality stiffness that keeps the gram count to a minimum.
