Introducing the Specialized Epic Expert mountain bike. Speed meets efficiency with 100mm of Brain-controlled travel for unmatched performance. Redesigned FACT 11m carbon frame enhances power transfer and handling. Paired with RockShox SID SL BRAIN fork, SRAM Level TL brakes, and Roval Control Carbon wheels for a lightweight, high-performance ride.

Unleash your inner speed demon with the 'Epic Expert' by Specialized. This high-performance model doesn't merely tackle speed, it dominates it, daring the competition to try and keep up.

What sets it apart? The 'Epic Expert' boasts the most effective suspension platform to date, assigning 100-mm of Brain-controlled travel to the front and rear. This masterful combination creates a bike which simply erases seconds off your time.

Brains that Outsmart the Track

The Epic Expert brilliantly merges the efficiency of a hardtail and the functionality of a full-suspension to create quick, impressive results. With over 100 World Cup victories to its name, speed is the Epic's first language.

Furthermore, the latest Epic model benefits from the most advanced Brain suspension yet, which optimises efficiency to ensure maximum acceleration. Be it small chatter or bigger hits, the new suspension absorbs with unprecedented smoothness.

The Game-Changer Frame

The Epic's all-new FACT 11m carbon frame is redesigned with a focus on power transfer and handling performance. With an enhanced rear triangle that's 15-percent stiffer, this bike makes full use of the Brain's powerful pedaling platform. Simultaneously, the front-triangle's revised carbon layup sheds weight off the bike and boosts its stiffness-to-weight ratio to unprecedented heights.

Conquer every path at stunning speed with the Specialized 'Epic Expert'. Revolutionise your ride today.

Cycle to Work Scheme: Affordable Riding for UK Employees

Unlock a cost-effective way to own the bike of your dreams through the Cycle to Work Scheme. This initiative, available to employees in the UK, lets you enjoy the benefits of cycling while saving on your bike purchase.

With the Cycle to Work Scheme, you can use your pre-tax salary to acquire a brand-new bicycle and essential cycling accessories. This means significant savings for you, as your salary sacrifice reduces both your income tax and National Insurance contributions.

The process is seamless: Choose the bike that suits your needs and budget from our extensive range. Your employer will then set up a salary sacrifice arrangement, spreading the cost of your bike over a specified period, typically 12 to 18 months.

Once the salary sacrifice period ends, you have the option to own the bike outright for a nominal fee, ensuring you get to keep and enjoy your trusted two-wheeled companion for years to come.

Experience the freedom of cycling, save money, and reduce your carbon footprint with the Cycle to Work Scheme. Join countless UK employees who have already embraced this eco-friendly and wallet-friendly way of commuting.
