Specialized Evo Expert Mountain Bike 2024
The Epic EVO Expert perfectly blends inspired handling, capable geometry, and laser-focused pedaling efficiency, offering riders the best of both worlds - speed and fun. With a seemingly modest increase in suspension travel at the front and rear, this bike surprises riders with a thrilling experience as soon as they hit the singletrack.
Engineered meticulously to maintain the Epic's standard-setting efficiency, the EVO's new suspension kinematics work harmoniously with the Rx XC Tune customized suspension, allowing riders to make the most out of every inch of travel while improving pedaling efficiency with increased anti-squat characteristics.
The Epic EVO sets a new standard for versatility with its Progressive XC Geometry and flip chip-equipped rear end, enabling riders to easily customize the bike's handling by adjusting the headtube angle and bottom bracket height.
Handling shifting duties with finesse is SRAM's GX Eagle AXS group, while RockShox's SID Select+ with the capable Charger 2 RL damper takes charge of takeoffs and landings.
The FACT 11m carbon frame of the Epic EVO can be tuned to match preferred handling characteristics using the flip chip simplicity, allowing riders to reduce the headtube angle and lower the bottom bracket height as desired. The RockShox SID Select+ 120-millimeter fork up front offers impressive pedaling efficiency with its two-position compression adjustment, while the X-Fusion Manic dropper post ensures hassle-free operation during challenging rides.
Hand-built Roval Control Carbon wheels with a modern 29-millimeter internal-width hookless rim add strength, durability, and a minimized weight, descending from a long World Cup lineage.
