At a glance
The 2020 Specialized Epic Expert Carbon EVO is an Cross Country mountain bike. It sports 29" wheels, is priced at $8,200 AUD, has Fox suspension and a SRAM drivetrain. The bike is part of Specialized's Epic range of mountain bikes.- Ripping around between the tape is one way to worship at the altar of speed, but for all the other long, fast rides or marathon races on technical terrain, there’s our all-new Epic Expert EVO. A MORE EPIC KIND OF EPIC Dropper posts and slightly longer forks may seem like overkill on an XC bike. We beg to differ. Epic EVOs are not only fast off the start line, they’re even better suited to masochistically long rides, multi-day stage races, and fast backcountry missions. HARDTAIL EFFICIENT.
- Race-proven, carbon chassis and ingenious Brain suspension—nothing’s faster.
- Increased control courtesy of an ultralight and ultra-capable Fox Step-Cast 34 fork.
- SRAM GX Eagle drivetrain gives you all the gearing you need to tackle the biggest climbs.
