Specialized Epic World Cup S-Works: The Fastest XC Race Bike
The Specialized Epic World Cup S-Works is the ultimate cross-country race machine, designed for speed, efficiency, and precision handling on smooth to moderately technical trails. With over four decades of off-road racing experience, this bike is engineered to give riders the perfect blend of hardtail speed and full suspension control, ensuring you can ride faster and smarter on every race course.
Key Benefits for Riders
Revolutionary Shock Technology for Ultimate Efficiency
The SIDLuxe WCID shock, co-developed with RockShox, provides the snappy response of a hardtail while offering the control and capability of full suspension. Its unique, independently adjustable positive and negative air springs allow you to fine-tune the shock to your preferences. Whether you prefer a firmer setup for a faster, more efficient ride or a softer tune for smoother, chunkier terrain, this shock delivers customizable performance that adapts to any course.
Lightweight Design for Fast Acceleration and Climbing
The Epic World Cup S-Works features a featherweight frame at just 1,765 grams, ensuring fast acceleration and agile handling on every climb and descent. This ultra-light design, combined with its exceptional stiffness, is achieved through an advanced composite layup and tube shapes developed from the Aethos, the lightest production road frame. The result? A bike that’s not only light but also incredibly responsive and efficient on every ride.
Optimized Rear Travel and Suspension Performance
With 75mm of rear travel, the Epic World Cup provides the capability of a longer travel bike, efficiently handling bumps while maintaining ultimate efficiency. The Ride Dynamics team tuned the shock and suspension system for smooth handling, and the custom Mega Jounce Bumper ensures bottom-out resistance during big impacts, giving you the confidence to push the limits on rough descents.
Unmatched Pedaling Efficiency and Suspension Control
Thanks to the SID SL BRAIN fork and its 110mm of suspension travel, the Epic World Cup delivers superior bump-muting performance. The fork’s Race Day 2 damper ensures that the bike remains efficient under pedaling, providing support while actively absorbing bumps on rough terrain without sacrificing speed. This seamless transition between suspension performance and pedaling efficiency makes the Epic World Cup the ideal race bike.
Premium Components for Performance and Durability
The Roval Control SL components, including a 1,240-gram wheelset, 180-gram seatpost, and 250-gram integrated cockpit, provide the perfect balance of strength, stiffness, and lightweight performance. These components are designed to withstand the demands of competitive racing while enhancing control and reducing overall bike weight, ensuring that every component works in harmony to elevate your race performance.

If you’re an XC racer or a rider who demands the best in speed and efficiency, the Epic World Cup S-Works is the bike for you. With its revolutionary suspension system, ultra-light frame, and premium components, it offers unmatched performance on both climbs and descents.
