- Take the lightest and most capable carbon hardtail frame available and deck it out in drool-worthy bits. Said bits include the SRAM’s wireless XX1 Eagle AXS drivetrain, an integrated power meter, ultralight carbon wheels, and a custom RockShox SID Brain Ultimate fork. THE GAME CHANGER The S-Works Epic Hardtail bears the lightest production frame to date. Impressive, yes, but it’s much more than that. We’ve also created the most capable and comfortable cross-country machine ever, because you’re not fast if you’re being pummeled by the trail.

It’s a game changer. 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.

- The lightest and most capable carbon hardtail frame ever created.

- Wireless SRAM XX1 Eagle AXS drivetrain.

- SRAM Level Ultimate disc brakes boast balanced power and modulation.
