Specialized Epic HT Comp: The Lightest, Most Capable Hardtail XC Bike
Gone are the days when race hardtails were synonymous with uncomfortable, twitchy rides. The Specialized Epic Hardtail Comp shatters these expectations, combining world-class performance with an unprecedented level of comfort. With a design focused on aggressive singletrack geometry, increased tire clearance, and the lightest production hardtail frame, the Epic Hardtail offers an experience that's fast, smooth, and agile.
Key Benefits for Riders
Unmatched Comfort Without Compromise
Lightweight doesn't have to mean uncomfortable. The Epic Hardtail Comp has been engineered with aggressive geometry to deliver a bike that handles like a dream, even on the toughest terrain. The increased vertical compliance of the frame ensures a smoother ride without sacrificing the bike’s ability to climb or handle technical trails. With optimized geometry, including a slack head tube angle and low bottom bracket, this bike offers confidence, control, and comfort in equal measure.
Performance That Redefines Speed
Lightweight and fast, the Epic Hardtail Comp features the RockShox SID SL fork for excellent suspension performance that absorbs rough trails with ease. Whether you’re on an XC race course or tackling a local trail, the SRAM Transmission 12-speed drivetrain provides intuitive and precise shifting. The combination of these top-tier components guarantees that every pedal stroke counts, delivering the ultimate in speed and responsiveness.
Engineering That Elevates Every Ride
What makes the Epic Hardtail Comp stand out is its lightweight alloy frame, designed to be the lightest in its class without sacrificing strength. The frame’s hydroformed top and downtubes help keep the weight low and the strength high, while also increasing standover clearance for added comfort. Plus, the frame is designed with internal cable routing to reduce clutter and improve durability.
Suspension Tuned for Efficiency and Comfort
The RockShox SID SL fork has been fine-tuned to deliver exceptional efficiency and comfort, with a Rush RL Damper and Debon Air spring that help smooth out the roughest sections of trail. With 100mm of travel (90mm on XS), this fork is designed to keep your ride smooth while still providing maximum control over the bike’s performance. The full suspension ensures a compliant, smooth ride that can handle even the most technical terrain.
Why Choose the Specialized Epic HT Comp?
The Epic Hardtail Comp is the perfect choice for XC riders looking for a race-ready hardtail that offers unparalleled comfort, top-tier components, and the lightest frame available. Whether you're competing or just out for a ride, this bike’s balance of speed, efficiency, and comfort will help you push your limits further than ever before.
