2020 Specialized Epic Ht Comp Carbon 29 Features
A podium-caliber racing machine that doesn't cost a mint. The Comp combines a stunningly lightweight carbon chassis with a RockShox Reba RL fork and plenty of gearing to take on the steepest climbs, courtesy of its SRAM NX Eagle 12-speed drivetrain.
THE GAME CHANGER
The Epic Hardtail sports one of the lightest production frames to date, but it's a hell of a lot more than that. We designed the most capable and comfortable racing chassis ever created, because you're not fast if you're being pummeled by the trail. It's a game changer. p>
MORE CONTROL MEANS MORE SPEED
Looking to ride faster? Who isn't? That's why we relaxed its head angle and lengthened the reach. The Epic retains a short wheelbase for deft handling yet offers more predictable steering and a centered rider position for increased control and speed on any trail.
• One of the lightest and most capable carbon hardtail frames ever created.
• RockShox Reba RL 29 with 100mm of travel and Motion Control damper.
• Wide-range SRAM NX Eagle 12-speed drivetrain gives you gearing to spare.
